lyrics

Sous la pluie, le carrelage jaune devient glissant
Place Bugeaud, les jets d'eau cernés de plantes tropicales
Semblaient se déchaîner, les passants se hâtait

Une pluie fine, glacée de janvier. Alger la Blanche n’est pas faite pour l’hiver
Elle y révèle tous ses défauts, se découvre amère
Loin des belles cartes postales, du cliché colonial

Alger aux prises avec ses terreurs
La ville s’arrête, et les regards se tournent
Déflagration au 1er du Milk Bar
Des Ultras mécontents, qui visent Salan

Sous l’hiver, le sol d’Alger est un terrain glissant

*****
Slippery Ground.

In the rain, the yellow tiles become slippery
Bugeaud Square, water jets surrounded by tropical plants
Seemed to unleash, forcing passers-by to hurry

A light and icy January rain. Algiers the White isn't made for winter
This season reveals all of its failures and a city left with bitterness
Far from the beautiful postcards and the colonial cliché

Algiers fights with its own terrors
The city comes to a standstill, and all eyes are looking away
Explosion on the 1st floor of the Milk Bar
Angry members of the OAS targeting Salan

In winter, the ground of Algiers is slippery.
