Prostitution [English translation]

There! Young man... uh, Garcon. Prostitution.

From my car window I see five to ten women

who even make money from sin - scandal

They let their dignity fizzle out on the streets

Shameless! To swallow more than fate

No go - greed for money makes our nation rotten

Just one dollar bill gets them high

They lie and they hide the truth

One is never honest without honest work

Damn! Idled away chatting, I'm late getting to my boss

I still need to trim his toenails

To charm myself through working life dressed like a schoolgirl

What?! I'm just doing this for money!

[Hook]

2x

There are people that will never get it

We're pelting bricks at them

For this, one doesn't need to go out on the streets

How very fortunate, that we're living in a glass house1

Capitalism!

Last night... all episodes of Baywatch

He likes that and I always have fodder for conversation

when I shave him from the chin line down

bend over and also turn the other butt cheek

Because the back of your hand tastes like a coal furnace2

it comes to my mind: 'How about a pay raise, boss?'

Drive home past the red light district, 'cause I live nearby

There! One of those without honor again

Whether I deep-throat or snuggle her

she doesn't give a hoot one way or the other

'Cause she gets paid

Awful - I wonder who pays for such a slut

"She won't even give you a kiss, an acquaintance said."

[Hook]

Roman Polanski!
