A

snuck
off
to
the
city
Un
petit
Jean

s'est
échappé
dans

Strung
out
on
lasers
and
slash

Défoncé
aux
lasers
et
aux
plazzas
à
la
mode
And
ate
all
your
razors
while
pulling
the
waiters
Et
a
dévoré
tous
vos
rasoirs
en
faisant
la
manche
Talking
'bout
Monroe
and
walking
on
snow
white
Parlant
de
Monroe
et
marchant
sur
du
blanc
comme
neige
New
York's
a
go-go
and
everything
tastes
right
New
York
c'est
le
boom
et
tout
a
bon
goût
