Un soir que dans le Bronx
J'étais on ne peut plus anxieux
De retrouver Samantha
Entre Thelonious Monk
Quelques punks aussi Bronski beat
Giclant de mon Aïwa

You're under arrest
'Cause you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
'Cause you're the best
Hah, a slippity slam, a-boom-bam, Gainsbourg

J'ai dit et je redis donc
Sur le trop tard du Bronx
Je recherchais Samantha
S'pointent deux gorilles du Bronx
Il est évident donc c'était mal barré
Pour moi

You're under arrest
'Cause you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
'Cause you're the best
G-G-Gain, G-G-Gain, G-G-Gain, G-Gainsbourg

C'était deux police blacks
Qui pratiquaient le slang
Ainsi que le Colt Cobra (word!)
Ils m'plaquent au mur du Bronx
Et je défie quiconque dans ce cas
De ne pas avoir les foies

You're under arrest
'Cause you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
'Cause you're the best
A slippity-slam, boom-ba-bang-bang, Gainsbourg

Ha-ha, ha-ha-ha, Serge!

Ha-ha, ha-ha-ha
You're under arrest
'Cause you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
They say you're the best, ha!
A-boom-bam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg 

L'un des ces yankees monkey me dit
"Give us your money!"
Qu'est-ce que t'aurais fait, toi?
Ils m'relâchent ainsi donc, j'enfonce dans le Bronx
Retrouver Samantha

You're under arrest
'Cause you're the best
A slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
They say you're the best, ha!
A-boom-bam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg, huh!

Ha-ha, ha-ha
Ha-ha, ha-ha-ha-ha
You're under arrest
'Cause you're the best
Slippity slam, ba-boom-bam, Gainsbourg
You're under arrest
'Cause you're the best
Slippity-slam, boom-ba-bang-bang, Gainsbourg
A world like this, a world like that, ha-ha-ha
