Hey
monsieur
John,
how'd
you
like
to
get
rich
Hé
monsieur
John,
ça
te
dirait
de
devenir
riche
Go
home
in
style.
. .?
De
rentrer
chez
toi
avec
style.
. .?
Yeah
okay,
what's
the
pitch?
Ouais
d'accord,
raconte
ton
truc.
A
U.S.
visa
to
help
me
out
Un
visa
américain
pour
m'aider
Lend
me
a
bit
of
your
embassy
clout
Prête-moi
un
peu
de
l'influence
de
ton
ambassade.
There
isn't
a
chance
pal,
you're
too
well
known
C'est
impossible
mon
pote,
tu
es
trop
connu.
Look,
what
I
want
is
that
girl
in
the
dress
Écoute,
ce
que
je
veux,
c'est
cette
fille
en
robe.
You
have
a
good
eye
Tu
as
bon
œil.
Her
name
is
Kim,
she's
my
new
princess
Elle
s'appelle
Kim,
c'est
ma
nouvelle
princesse.
You
give
her
a
try?
Tu
veux
l'essayer
?
It's
my
friend
Chris
C'est
mon
ami
Chris
Who's
the
one
feeling
down
Qui
est
celui
qui
se
sent
mal.
I
ordered
a
beer!
J'ai
commandé
une
bière !
She'll
get
him
up,
Elle
va
le
remonter,
It's
her
first
night
in
town
C'est
sa
première
nuit
en
ville.
But
I
have
to
warn
you
Mais
je
dois
te
prévenir
She
don't
come
cheap
Elle
ne
vient
pas
pas
cher.
It's
got
to
be
twenty
for
my
princess
Il
faut
payer
vingt
pour
ma
princesse.
Twenty
dollars??
Vingt
dollars ??
She's
sort
of
a
virgin,
well
more
or
less
Elle
est
un
peu
vierge,
enfin
plus
ou
moins.
For
twenty
more
you
get
a
room
and
key
Pour
vingt
de
plus,
tu
as
une
chambre
et
une
clé.
For
fifty
bucks,
she's
got
the
whole
night
free
Pour
cinquante
dollars,
elle
est
libre
toute
la
nuit.
No
one
gives
us
a
buzz
Personne
ne
nous
excite
Like
the
Engineer
does
Comme
l'Ingénieur.
Stop
drooling
white
boy
Arrête
de
baver
blanc-bec.
You're
losing
your
cool
Tu
perds
ton
sang-froid.
You
like
this
jail
bait
Tu
aimes
cette
petite
garce.
John,
open
your
eyes
John,
ouvre
les
yeux.
This
is
the
end
of
the
line
C'est
la
fin
de
la
ligne.
This
whole
rotten
scene
Toute
cette
scène
pourrie.
This
little
girl,
we
could
be
in
the
sack
Cette
petite
fille,
on
pourrait
être
au
lit
ensemble.
For
what
it
costs
me
to
buy
a
big
mac
Pour
ce
que
ça
me
coûte
d'acheter
un
Big
Mac.
John,
it's
time
to
go
back
-
John,
il
est
temps
de
retourner
en
arrière -
You
know
what
I
mean
Tu
sais
ce
que
je
veux
dire.
I'm
starting
to
cry
pal
Je
commence
à
pleurer
mon
pote.
You're
so
out
of
touch
Tu
es
tellement
déconnecté.
The
trouble
with
you
is
you
think
too
much
Le
problème
avec
toi,
c'est
que
tu
penses
trop.
Ol'
Dr.
John
knows
what
you
need
alright
Le
vieux
Dr
John
sait
ce
dont
tu
as
besoin,
ok.
I've
bought
you
a
present
Je
t'ai
acheté
un
cadeau.
She
yours
all
night
Elle
est
à
toi
toute
la
nuit.
No
one
gives
you
a
hit
like
the
Engineer's
shit!!
Personne
ne
te
fait
une
bonne
dose
comme
le
trafic
de
l'Ingénieur !!
See
little
princess,
I
was
right
Tu
vois,
ma
petite
princesse,
j'avais
raison.
You
got
the
biggest
score
tonight
Tu
as
fait
le
plus
gros
score
ce
soir.
You
caught
that
sergeant
by
the
nose
Tu
as
attrapé
ce
sergent
au
nez.
You
stay
with
him
until
he
goes
Tu
restes
avec
lui
jusqu'à
ce
qu'il
parte.
Call
him
Chris
Appelle-le
Chris.
He'll
like
that
Il
aimera
ça.
You
said
you
needed
a
job
Tu
as
dit
que
tu
avais
besoin
d'un
travail.
You
said
you'd
turn
a
trick
Tu
as
dit
que
tu
ferais
un
tour.
You'd
better
prove
it,
and
quick!
Tu
ferais
mieux
de
le
prouver,
et
vite !
