RECETTE - RECIPE

                                POUR      FAIRE      UN       BON      GHETTO


                                Indispensable de bien choisir ses ingrédients

                                      Un marché juteux et ses expédients

                                        Une période de crise de l'emploi

                                   Des gens dans la misère, cela va de soi.

                                   Ensuite, mettez-les au banc de la société :

                                          Sans en avoir l'air, en douceur,

                                Dans les quartiers regroupez les par couleurs

                                  ...Pendant quelques mois, laissez mijoter...

                                  Vous verrez se créer une ville dans  la ville,

                                     Avec ses règles, ses codes d'honneur,

                               Ses nombreux deals comme nouveaux labeurs :

                                   La survie nécessite de rédiger un codicille.

                                           Besoin de focaliser l'attention

                                        Au moment crucial des élections ?

                                      De la police, envoyez 2 ou 3 garnisons

                                  Un bon coup de filet pour remplir les prisons,

                                   Promettez la création de postes de geôliers

                                   En construisant de magnifiques pénitenciers

                                  Dressez tout cela sur un beau plat d'apparat

                                         Et servez chaud à votre électorat !



MY TRANSLATION



                                   TO       MAKE       A       GOOD      GHETTO 
  

                                   Essential to carefully choose the ingredients

                                        A lucrative market and its expedients

                                           Times of crisis of employment

                                            People in poverty, of course.

                                            Without seeming to do, gently,

                                   In the neighborhoods group them by color.

                                         During a few months, let simmer,

                                 You will see the creation of a city within a city,

                                           With its rules, codes of honor,

                                         Its numerous deals as new labors:

                                         Survival requires writing a codicil.

                                             Need of focusing attention

                                     At the crucial moment of the elections?

                                     Of the police send two or three garnisons

                                         A good haul to fulfill the prisons

                                           Promise to create jobs jailers

                                        By building beautiful penitentiaries

                                    Make all this on a nice flat of pageantry

                                        And serve hot at your electorate !
