Little French Song

Quand tout va malWhen life goes wrongTry for a little French songFrench song are maybe démodéesMais si douces à fredonnerFrench song are tender à l'envieNostalgique à l'infini

Et quand on ne sais plusWhever to belongTry for a little French songFrench song will take you to ParisTo Pigalle ou l'pile saint LouisFrench song are dancing sous la pluieDe Bastille aux Tuilleries

Because we have de quoi frimerWe have Brassens Brel and FerréWe have Boris Vian, BarbaraGainsbourg, Trenet, Prevert, CosmaBecause we have de quoi choisirWe have Aznavour, ReggianiBécaud, Nougaro, MoustakiÉdith Piaf, Cloclo and Johnny

Oui oui oui ouiBien sûr ce n'est pas Duke EllingtonCe n'est pas Elvis ni JacksonCe n'est pas Fitzgerald ou ArmstrongC'est just a little French songMais quand le chagrin reste too longMoi, je chante une little French song

Because we have de quoi frimerWe have Brassens Brel and FerréWe have Boris Vian, BarbaraGainsbourg, Trenet, Prevert, CosmaBecause we have de quoi choisirWe have Aznavour, ReggianiBécaud, Nougaro, MoustakiÉdith Piaf, Cloclo and Johnny

Oui oui oui ouiEt qu'on soit de Londres ou de Hong KongQu'on soit trois feuilles ou shu-bangQu'on soit djellaba ou sarongTry for a little French songQuand les méchants sonnent leur gongMoi je chante une little French song

Little French Song

When everything is badWhen life goes wrongTry for a little French SongFrench song are maybe old-fashionedBut so sweet to hum alongFrench song are desirably tenderNostalgic to the eternity

And when we don't knowWhere to belongTry for a little French songFrench song will take you to ParisTo Pigalle or Saint Louis IslandFrench songs are dancing in the rainFrom Bastille to the Tuleries

Because we have what to bragWe have Brassens Brel and FerréWe have Boris Vian, BarbaraGainsbourg, Trenet, Prevert, CosmaBecause we have what to chooseWe have Aznavour, ReggianiBécaud, Nougaro, MoustakiEdith Piaf, Cloclo and Johnny

Yes yes yes yesOf course, it's not Duke EllingtonIt's not Elvis nor JacksonIt's not Fitzgerald or ArmstrongIt's just a little French songBut when the sorrow stays to longMe, I sing a little French song

Because we have what to bragWe have Brassens Brel and FerréWe have Boris Vian, BarbaraGainsbourg, Trenet, Prevert, CosmaBecause we have what to chooseWe have Aznavour, ReggianiBécaud, Nougaro, MoustakiEdith Piaf, Cloclo and Johnny

Yes yes yes yesWhether you're from London or Hong KongWhether you're three leaves or shu-bangWhether you're djellaba or sarongTry for a little French songWhen the mean ones hit their gongMe, I song a little French song
