Qu'est-ce que j'vais faire plus tard


What will I do later?

 

I am null in history
What I will do later?
Zero in geography
bad in the life

I won’t be a Doctor
Not dentist, neither architect, nor engineer
that is sure
But while waiting, we are stuck up to six ‘o’clock

What one will make later?
And if one rather spoke about which one will do this evening?
I will not be able to get out
No movies, not television and then the worst I am punished,
I will not go in Marie-Claire for her anniversary

It is not easy to explain that one has the grey matter in grinding
It is useless and besides the lesson is not worth undoubtedly a cheese

What will I do later?
What will I do later?
What will I do later?



Délivrés

Delivered

All moved suddenly,
it was like an earthquake
All turned and I have still a little sea sickness
But it is good to live again,
to be free
Delivered finally from the pages of the books
to have joined together to us here:
thank you

What are you doing,
Pinocchio [ Pinocchio ]
is always also thin for You [ Small prince ]
took to You a blow of old man, blue Beard [ Blue Beard ]
do not make malignant [ Alladin ]
get out of your magic spell, Snow White [Snow White]
Installation your bag with mischievousnesses [ Dear Alice ]
you are still in bad dresses Cinderella [ Cinderella ]
[ This time it is for truth ] [ Delivered! ]

*** musical Break ***

I am a little hungry suddenly
I will eat one well or two partridges
My beard and me need to be a little refreshed
You seem fine
My cooking Is as one says the best in the country
I will be your friend, Miss , faithful

Take care of the cakes, Pinocchio [ Pionocchio ]
the salad, you rinse it [ Small Prince ]
Your steak you like it blue, blue Beard [ blue Beard ]
Go to seek for a rabbit [ Alladin ]

[ Alladin ] [ Delivered ]
[ Pinocchio ] [ Delivered ]

Abbacadabra

We are no more afraid of Carabosse
With a pumpkin we make a carosse
There are five notes of music
Only one word for that
here is the magic formula
of Abbacadabra

Refrain: [ Abbacadabra, Abbacadabra ]
[ the eyes are closed, one opens the arms ]
[ One advances of four steps, one counts up to three ]
[ And the marvellous country one is there already ]
[ Abbacadabra... ]
[ Abbacadabra... ]

[ Three moons in the sky ]
[ It is almost unreal ]
[ And nobody knows how ]
[ the pages are turned ]
[ Of the country of the images ]
[ Between space and time ]
But they are not all walls do not hold the sun upright turns around us
[ In music ]
I have the key of the magic world
a white rabbit gave it to me

[ Abbacadabra... ]
[ Abbacadabra... ]
[ There is not any more the jitter ]


We are no more afraid of Carabosse
With a pumpkin we make a carosse
There are five notes of music
Only one word for that
[ And marvellous country ]
[ We are already there]
[ Abbacadabra... ]
[ Abbacadabra... ]

It is really brilliant
I see the postcards
Which I will send to my little sister!

[ But it is not all ]
we arestuck until six'o'clock

If one does not return on our premises per hour
[ Dramatic ]
One would have already returned
A the end of reserve
[ Abbacadabra... ]
[ Come with me... ]

Abbacadabra,
Abbacadabra
One closes the eyes,
one opens the arms
One advances of four steps,
one counts up to three
And the marvellous country
one is there already

Mon nez, mon nez

My nose My nose My nose

What do you have you Pinocchio in the pocket?
It is not a piece of brioche?
Not At all!
You know what Alice told us
If we start again we will be punished
I am not insane!

Wood cross and iron cross (French expression)
If I lie, I go to hell

[ I do not know if you will go to hell ]
[ While waiting, did you see your nose? ]

Do my nose, my nose, my nose
You astonish me
What it has my nose?
My nose, my nose, my nose
You talk cock?
What does it have my nose?

[ It is not beautiful what you do ]
[ You know that with each new lie ]
[You have the nose which lengthens ]

be cool
I am not the son of Cyrano
[ No no nol]
If it comes to seek me sticks she will find me Carabosse
[ dot’t talk too much ]

My word, you are not well It is normal my nore
[ It is not a peak, it is a reef ] [ a peninsula, a course your conk ] (from “Cyrano de Bergerac”)

My nose, my nose, my nose
You impress me
What he has my nose ?
my nose, my nose, my nose You talk cock?
What does it have my nose?

[ It is not beautiful what you do ]
[ You know that with each new lie ]
[You have the nose that lengthens ]
[You have the nose than lengthens ]


Tete d'allumette

head of match

[ a p' tit pea in its head of match ]
[ a hair in the hand ]
[ everybody loves ]
[ Alladin the balladin ]

Like Pinocchio, I only hear my nose
And it is why in Samarcande
They think of me as a naive
Each day in the shopping mall

But I can make poetries
[ It is quickly known as ]
And fly on a carpet
[ what a genius ]
And I can make the Eiffel tower
With pieces of strings:

[ a pea in the head ]
[ a head of match ]
[ a hair in the hand ]
[ everybody loves ]
[ Alladin the balladin ]

It is true I did not invent the sun
I have my genius in a bottle
He always think for me
And me I benefit from the time which passes
But I am the best with the balls
[ It is quickly known as ]

And I get that from my family
[ What a genius ]
Is not necessary for me any more,
my friend to be a Caliph in Baghdad

Imagine-moi


Imagine

Mirror, you are cruel
Yesterday evening I were beautiful
And this morning
I am only a strange creature

Mirror, for what you are used?
You are not sincere
You do from me
what I see
Or a demon
or an angel:

Imagine me further
With the wrinkles than makes life
Imagine me later
And show me to me if I attract a glance

I miss courage
I am afraid to know
will my image be still my friend
later ?

Mirror, you can lie
It is that which attract me
I seek in you Another me
My ideal or worst

Imagine me further
With the wrinkles than makes life
Imagine me later
And show me to me if I attract a glance
I miss courage
I am afraid to know
will my image be still my friend
later ?

Pareils et mêmes

Similar and same

I do not like this image
Of wise girl
Who buys food and the household
I had many misfortunes
My bitchy sisters
And my mother-in-law
made me so many horrors
the Prince married me
I was put
[ It was too beautiful to last ]
One day my Prince left with a girl
[ To remake the blow of the squirrel fur slipper ]

I also was a little unsteady
But one changes with the age
I loved three blondes and four brown
I do not want any more that one

[ do not listen to him, it will kill you ]
[ do not listen to him! ]

Refrain:

[ They all are similar ]
[ wonders Promise ]
[ But are inaccurate and as soon as one yields to them ]

[ They all are similar ]
[ They are all the same ones ]
[ They want that they are liked ]
[ They sow their problems, collect the sorrow ]
[ They are all the same ones ]

*** musical Break ***

We will have nice children,
strong and tall
Who will make very proud their mom
[ Then this large knife ]
[ Behind your back? ]
[ tall me a little, what is it for ?]

Let us forget the past,
I suffered too much
not to have a true hearth
Somebody to comfort his miseries
You are the girl that the destiny sent to me
please, do not go too quickly

It is true, you are sympathetic to me
But me do not blame me if I hesitate
I am only one woman

[ It is a liar, he is infamous ]
[ It is a liar! ]

Refrain

[ They all are similar ]
[ Ah-ah-ah-ah ]
[ They all are similar ]
[ They are all the same ones ]
[ Ah-ah-ah-ah ]

L'enfant do


The child sleeps

the sky lowered the curtain
the big magician locked up the world in his hat
And if somebody hears me up there
he knows well that the children are always caught for heroes
if I could do it I would put back the sand glass of time :

[see my mother once again ]
[sing one more time ]
[The child sleeps]
[see my father once again]
[return from war ]
[The child sleeps]
[ heat my heart with the bonfire ]
[ To laugh with the glares ]
[see my mother once again ]
[ To say like at one time ]
[The child sleeps]
[see my father once again]
[ With my mother ]
[The child sleeps]

Let tomorrow come soon
And that by enchantment I find myself in my cradle
I give up all castles
All these dreams that the children invent while following brooks
let a fairy hear me and bring me back near those that I love

[ and see my mother once again ]
[sing one more time ]
[The child sleeps]
[see my father once again]
[return from war ]
[The child sleeps]
[ heat my heart with the bonfire ]
[ To laugh with the glares ]
[see my mother once again ]
[ To say like at one time ]
[The child sleeps]

[see my father once again]
[ With my mother ]
[The child sleeps]

Take care, Carabosse is at the bottom of the corridor
she arrives surrounded by demons and of its black guard
[ Let’s escape if not we will not be beautiful to see ]
[ we will not hold all in this wall cupboard ]
[ no more time, it is too late ]

release my cassettes,
release my cassettes
dirty hooligans
release my cassettes,
or I break you the head in a single blow
blow of castanets or nut-crackers no jealous
release my cassettes,
release my cassettes
Or I twist your neck

[ Release these cassettes, release these cassettes ]
[ Dirty hooligans]
[ Blow of castanets or nut-crackers ]

Belle

Beautiful

Beautiful,Beautiful I am still beautiful
Even though I slept during one hundred years
Beautiful , Beautiful You are eternal
I’ve known it for a long time

a flower cries at the bottom of your heart
the tears of time
a rose dares to give you the sky
And the Love is a child

[ Beautiful, Beautiful]
[ You are still beautiful ]
[ And you slept during onr hundred years ]
[ Beautiful, Belle ]
[ You are eternal ]
[ I’ve knoww it for a long time ]

a silence launches stones to stars
And on this star
a rose, drops of blood
And Love is innocent
a secrecy shouts so much of truths
But who hears them?
When time tightens traps to nothing
And the Love is ocean

*** musical Break ***

[ Beautiful, Beautiful]
[ You are eternal ]
[ I’ve known it for a long time ]
[ Beautiful, Beautiful]
[ You are still beautiful ]
[ And you slept for one hundred years ]
[ Beautiful, Beautiful]
[ You are eternal ]
[ I’ve known it for a long time ]

A poet celebrates the melancholy
Of a sleeping sun
And the Earth wanders like a spinning top
And the Love is impatient

[ a downpour bores like an illusion ]
[ the heart of the dragon ]
[ the sun takes care on all his children ]
[ And Love is a giant ]

Beautiful You are eternal
[ And I love you now ]

once I liked you you all which followed my courses
And I will not annoy you of a long speech
Promised I will teach you
Tell You without lie
That I met a prince charming
And not prince for as much
I leave you, it is the fault of Love

Refrain: [ It left... ]
[ Send the credits, the history is finished ]
[ the geography... also denies ]
[ undunce dunces, dead losses and strapping men ]
[ More need for ink ]
[ One all will raise ink, so long ]
[ It left, send the credits ]
[ Four, three, two, curtain ]

You did not have all the bump of mathematics
but when one works, it is necessary to have the logical spirit
And if I am not mistaken
No infused science
gives the square of the hypothénuse
So promise to me
to do better when I’m no more there

Refrain

We make travels together in the magic book
we separate in the last page
It’s magic
Fantastic
In music

Refrain

[ It left, send the credits ]
He has the last word
