La Vieille Fille by France Gall

Come a man from the country

Come a man from the city

Rich or without money

A savant, an idiot

Poetic or militant

A mandolin player

Out of pity I don't want

To die an old maid

La la la I have a sister

From her earliest years

Attracted so many pretty hearts

She didn't know which one to choose

But as for me

The first who shows up

Will be my choice

And I'll be happy

Come a man from the country

Come a man from the city

Rich or without money

A savant, an idiot

Poetic or militant

A mandolin player

Out of pity I don't want

To die an old maid

Yet Margret

Who wasn't very pretty

As soon as she turned sixteen

Here it is, she's getting married

At eighteen

Gave birth to twins

I see the years passing

And I'm still a ''miss''

Come a man from the country

Come a man from the city

Rich or without money

A savant, an idiot

Poetic or militant

A mandolin player

Out of pity I don't want

To die an old maid

I'll be beyond reproach

Nor mournful, nor jealous

A true Penelope

A model spouse

He can drink at the cafe

Everything that I save

Now it's up to you to judge

If I'm worth the wager

Come a man from the country

Come a man from the city

Rich or without money

A savant, an idiot

Poetic or militant

A mandolin player

Out of pity I don't want

To die an old maid

In Dahouët*

The birds,

The seagulls 

Don't drink from the water.

The sun 

is pale

And Camille 

Returns to her boat. 

We put away the parasols,

We take out the umbrellas.

The vacations 

Are over 

And my heart goes 

Twoui, twoui, twoui.

Love so coveted 

Now forgotten...

This girl in a bikini 

Is hiding something from me

*Dahouët is a port in France.

Since they're vain, the promises that can keep me on a leash 

Oh I'm way too afraid 

Of the sadness which balances between the expectations and the hope

For better days 

So I grab my hat, a guitar on my back 

and straight away I board 

onto a boat towards the unknown, to find again the hot sand

waiting for me, let's go ''see you soon''

Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye 

Since this world goes straight to the wall, I would love to slow down the pace

Eh why hurry 

From going quicker than the wind while we forget the beautiful moments 

We miss them

Goodbye forever to the stress I am against, I will not bring a watch with me

Too bad if I arrive last 

Where I am going, they won't have any, I have all the time that I need 

The present is enough for me 

Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye

If this merry-go-round one day stops, I'll just skedaddle along

Don't count on me 

For stashing away my cash, take myself refuge at the Helvetian 

No thanks 

When this beautiful world will make war, I will be going to find my brothers

In the shadow of an old centenary 

And guided by the light, we'll let our crazy dreams 

be carried off by the river 

Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye

Because we love 

Break down and cry under the sheets

We love each other 

For one last time 

And please 

Close the door behind you 

And you return

I'll be close to you 

And if you love me 

Hold me tight in your arms 

We're not going to kiss

For one last time?

But tell me what are you thinking 

And when you return 

I'll be close to you 

For one last time

The balcony, the rain, mixes with the sun 

I follow you to up until it

In order to remember

I bite my lips 

To wait for you again 

You never stay long enough. 

I don't want,

To hurt anyone,

Maybe that's what I want for myself,

of lying to myself,

And to everyone.

I open my heart,

the time of a song,

I lock it again,

I return to the house. 

I love you for life, 

For this instant, 

I would like to see you again, 

At the peak of your soul.

I don't want,

To hurt anyone,

Maybe that's what I want for myself,

of lying to myself,

And to everyone.

No you haven't finished your plate
But you're eating again
You're eating my heart!
More of it you eat, the more you pay-hey-hey-hey-hey
My heart is filled with hate, towards you

Oh how, oh how
How can I tell you
That I love you silently
But you can't say anything

Oh how, oh how
How can I describe
Your funny face
In a single sigh

No you haven't finished your plate
But you're eating again
You're eating my heart!
More of it you eat, the more you pay-hey-hey-hey-hey
My heart is filled with hate, towards you

I'm your favorite dish
The blood on your scalpel
I'm your favorite dish
The blood on your scalpel
And no, no you don't understand!

No you haven't finished your plate
But you're eating again
You're eating my heart!
More of it you eat, the more you pay-hey-hey-hey-hey
My heart is filled with hate, towards you

I don't have the time to think of you 

My head is full without you 

I know I think only of myself 

I don't want to know why 

Your head is full without me

I know I think only of you 

But what did you come here to do? 

I don't understand anything, you would still have me say

But what do you think about your life?

You don't understand anything, you make my head spin

I can dance great without you 

Without putting my feet in your flats

I know I think only of myself 

I don't want to know why 

Your head is full without me 

I know I think only of you

But what did you come here to do? 

I don't understand anything, you would still have me say

But what do you think about your life?

You don't understand anything, you make my head spin

I see you in my dreams, the most tender. 

I imagine all the words that you would whisper while seeing me so helpless. 

I smell you and your scent carries me 

In a world of memories in which I would like to 

take refuge in for all of life. 

Wisdom loses any meaning and flies away, 

facing the emptiness and the absence,

Probably taking with it the story, the dreams and the insouciance. 

Where is your soul hiding now, 

Where is the softness of this world hiding

Of which you so often told me of in your secrets, 

The glow of your gaze 

continues to blind me 

I see you in my dreams, the most vivid.  

The softness of your voice carries me away so far, so far away from everything, but close to you. 

The stroke of the sun on my skin leaves me icy, 

impervious to every comfort, without you nothing has importance anymore.

Where is your soul hiding now, 

Where is the softness of this world hiding

Of which you so often told me of in your secrets.

I see you in my dreams, the most tender. 

The pain is nothing compared to the desire

Of seeing your lips smile at me 

I would like, just once, 

To hear you whisper to me, 

Don't worry, all is well for you.

I have trouble sleeping at night on the dunes in Helsinki.

I'm dying of desire, your breath is verdigris 

Like an icicle in the rain.

You walk in front of me on the dunes, you seize me 

I beg you not to leave me alone here 

Like an icicle in the rain

In your eyes, dark from fear, 

I saw my crimson blood 

Doing the rain dance 

I left on a flying bed 

For the United Kingdom 

I beg you not to leave me alone here 

Like an icicle in the rain

A computer's diachylon.

The sexy robot cries.  

A reactor's centurion 

The sexy robot cries!

As your patrons pay you by the hour 

The sexy robot cries

And the dancing melons 

Bouncing in chorus

The sexy robot cries

Cries. Cries. 

More than a million admirers 

When Cinderella reveals her flowers 

The bundle filled with buyers 

The sexy robot cries

A dentition that brings bad luck 

The sexy robot cries

And the smooth sausages die off,  

The sexy robot cries.
