Une nuit que j'étais
One night that I was
Dans quelque pub anglais
In some English pub
Du cœur de Londres
From the heart of London
Parcourant l'Amour Monstre de Pauwels
Traveling through the Monster Love of Pauwels
Me vint une vision
A vision came to me
Dans l'eau de Seltz
In seltzer water
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
Tandis que des médailles
While medals
Font briller à sa taille
Make your waist shine
Le bronze et l'or
Bronze and gold
Le platine lui grave
Platinum engraves him
D'un cercle froid
From a cold circle
La marque des esclaves
The slave mark
À chaque doigt
On every finger
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
Jusques en haut des cuisses
Up to the top of the thighs
Elle est bottée
She is kicked
Et c'est comme un calice
And it's like a chalice
Elle ne porte rien
She's not wearing anything
D'autre qu'un peu
Other than a little
D'essence de Guerlain
Guerlain essence
Dans les cheveux
In the hair
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
À chaque mouvement
With every movement
Les clochettes d'argent
The silver bells
De ses poignets
From her wrists
Agitant ses grelots
Shaking her bells
Elle avança
She moved forward
Et prononça ce mot
And said this word
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
The initials, the initials, the initials B.B
