Here are the lyrics translated by Cedric Legrand.
Airport, air terminal
But for all the money I need to go
It's the blues, depression
The checkout for sure
Let the night fall and the time come
And I'm dying
Between apathy and gravity
Where I'm staying
Changing angles, taking the exit
Getting off to America
Sex appeal, it's sunset
And Marlboro smiling at me
My love, my ego, I know it exists
The warmth of abandon
It's like a symphony
Sexy's the sky of California
Under my skin, L.A. gave me an overdose
so sexy the spleen of a road movie
In the wing mirror, my life in anamorphosis
No more I.D., yet the idea
Of taking the freeway
Osmosis, on the road
Between the asphalt and my feet
Let the night fall, as the jet lag
Has put me back
L.A.P.D. gave me a fine, no tragedy
Having a trip, tasting a strip
In the sun, in full midday
Six a.m., I'm offset
I'm ice in water, I'm mellow,
Say, my love, my Wesson
My clever trick
The warmth of the cannon
It's like a symphony
Sexy's the sky of California
Under my skin, L.A. gave me an overdose
So sexy the spleen of a road movie
In the wing mirror, my life in anamorphosis
Hear the song. Listen!
