Lyrics to NoFx's cover of "Champs Élysees":

Français: Je m' baladais sur l' avenueLe coeur ouvert l' inconnuJ' avais envie de dire bonjourA n' importe quiN' importe qui et ce fut toiJe t' ai dit n' importe quoiIl suffisait de te parlerPour t' apprivoiserAux Champs-ElysesAux Champs-ElysesAu soleil, sous la pluieA midi ou minuitIl y a tout c' que vous voulezAux Champs-ElysesTu m' as dit : "Jai rendez-vousdans un sous-sol avec des fousqui vivent la guitare la maindu soir au matin"Alors je t' ai accompagneOn a chant, on a dansEt l' on a mme pas pensA s' embrasserAux Champs-ElysesAux Champs-ElysesAu soleil sous la pluieA midi ou minuitIl y a tout c' que vous voulezAux Champs-Elyses

Anglais: I was walking down the avenue and my hart wantedsomething unknown(new) I felt like saying good dayto anybody To anybody and that was you, and I saidsomething (anything) It was enough to me to talkto you to make you mineAt Champs Élysées, at Champs Élysées If it'sraining or if sun is shining, if it's noon ormidnight You have anything you want at ChampsÉlyséesYou told me "I have a meeting in the basementwith the fools who live with guitars in theirhands from evening till morning" So I joined you, we sang and we danced But we never eventhought of kissing or hugging. At Champs Élysées, at Champs Élysées If it'sraining or if sun is shining, if it's noon ormidnight You have anything you want at ChampsÉlysées...
