Paradis - La Ballade de Jim
Because she's gone, Jim is upset
Jimmy drinks gin in his Chrysler
The peninsula, the boulevard of the sea is stupid

Because she's gone, watch out: Jimmy is going in circles
Last night still, his heroine
Was holding him so tight, while saying "Jim"
She was his sedative, his deep alcohol

Because she's gone, watch out: Jimmy is going crazy
Jimmy, you're strong, but you're crying
On the leather in your Chrysler
Over there the sun is falling into the sea
Jimmy, the girls for the heart
Likе alcohol and revolvers
It's jumping in the air
Falling on thе ground
Boom!

Since two years, for sure, Jim was working hard
For his starlet to tan on a boat
With her, he wanted a baby, no joke
Because she's gone, watch out: Jimmy want to die

Jimmy, you're strong, but you're crying
On the leather in your Chrysler
Over there the sun is falling into the sea
Jimmy, the girls for the heart
Like alcohol and revolvers
It's jumping in the air
Falling on the ground
Boom!

Jimmy's going too fast, Jimmy's crying
He smells her perfume on the ledge
The laces, the gravel, and in the evening air
The Chrysler takes off in the ferns and the lilypads

Jimmy wakes up in an ideal air
The bright paradise of a hospital room
The nurse is an angles and her eyes are green
Because she smiles at him, watch out: Jimmy wants her to like him
