Her name was Marianne and she wanted to train me
Elle s′appelait Marianne et désirait m'entraîner
Towards the well-politicized loves of his age
Vers les amours de son âge bien politisées
I who didn't care about anything, I accepted almost everything
Moi qui me foutais de tout, j′acceptais à peu près tout
His speeches and his mirages, but against a kiss
Ses discours et ses mirages, mais contre un baiser
Between Marx and Mao
Entre Marx et Mao
I was flying high
Je m'envolais très haut
Between Marx and Mao
Entre Marx et Mao
To bed
Au dodo
Between Marx and Mao
Entre Marx et Mao
I was flying high
Je m'envolais très haut
Between Marx and Mao
Entre Marx et Mao
To bed
Au dodo
When the dollar fell she started praying
Quand le dollar est tombé, elle s′est mise à prier
So that its Chinese currency is not devalued
Pour que sa monnaie chinoise ne soit pas dévaluée
For her, my eyes are slanted, my hair to watch
Pour elle, mes yeux sont bridés, mes cheveux à mater
My toes are cut off, but I'm out of fashion
Mes bouts de pieds sont coupés, mais je suis démodé
Between Marx and Mao
Entre Marx et Mao
I was flying high
Je m′envolais très haut

Her name was Marianne, but to annoy him
Elle s′appelait Marianne, mais pour l'embêter
I called it "Nuit-de-Chine" or "Fleur-de-Rosée"
Je l′appelais "Nuit-de-Chine" ou "Fleur-de-Rosée"
I loved it more than anything, but it was old fashioned
Je l'aimais par-dessus tout, mais c′était démodé
A leftist and jealous student replaced me
Un étudiant gauchiste et jaloux, m'a bien remplacé
Between Marx and Mao
Entre Marx et Mao
They fly very high
Ils s'envolent très haut
Between Marx and Mao
Entre Marx et Mao
To bed
Au dodo
Between Marx and Mao
Entre Marx et Mao
They fly very high
Ils s′envolent très haut
Between Marx and Mao
Entre Marx et Mao

They fly very high
Ils s′envolent très haut
