Apocalypse Calypso Lyrics in English MIKA

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Apocalypse Calypso by MIKA from French to English.
Intro
As long as we embrace, we exist
We make ourselves immortal
Facing the Apocalypse
Intro
By making love, we resist
Look at me, take my hand
My mouth, your back
Sensual to death
Our hearts hooked
We ignite in the flames
No matter what they think
Of the consequences
Your *ss, they dance
We ignite in the flames
I hold your body so tight
Give me your hand
As long as we embrace, we exist
We make ourselves immortal
Facing the Apocalypse
By making love, we resist
Look at me, take my hand
Dancing the Calypso
Apocalyptic Calypso
Let's dance the Calypso
This Apocalyptic Calypso
Oh la, Calypso
Apocalyptic Calypso
This Apocalyptic Calypso
Calypso, Calypso, Apocalyptic Calypso
We burn, the embers
A bubble, we f*ck
Your skin, my skin
The sky, pouring down
Me on your back
We kiss in the flames
I hold your body so tight
Give me your hand
As long as we embrace, we exist
We make ourselves immortal
Facing the Apocalypse
By making love, we resist
Look at me, take my hand
Dancing the Calypso
Apocalyptic Calypso
Let's dance the Calypso
This Apocalyptic Calypso
Oh la, Calypso
Apocalyptic Calypso
This Apocalyptic Calypso
Calypso, Calypso
Apocalyptic Calypso
Calypso, Calypso
Apocalyptic Calypso

SONG MEANING

Apocalypse Calypso whirls listeners into a steamy, end-of-the-world party where passion is the ultimate act of defiance. Sung in French, the lyrics paint a cinematic scene: flames lick the skyline, yet two lovers press closer, their bodies swaying to a hypnotic calypso beat. In their tight embrace they declare, “Tant que l'on s'enlace on existe” — as long as we hold each other, we exist. The apocalypse may roar outside, but every kiss, every dance step, every heartbeat becomes a rebellious shout that love can make us feel immortal.

Beneath the sultry imagery of skin, heat and rhythm lies a joyful message about seizing the present. Instead of fearing the inevitable, the song invites us to celebrate life with uninhibited movement and connection. The calypso rhythm symbolizes carefree abandon, while the repeated call to “prends-moi la main” (take my hand) urges unity in the face of chaos. In short, “Apocalypse Calypso” is a seductive reminder that when the world seems ready to burn, turning up the music, dancing shoulder to shoulder and loving without restraint may be the boldest survival strategy of all.
