Jacques Brel Is Alive And Well And Living In Paris - Jackie (La Chanson De Jacky)

 (versiyon 1)
Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   
And if one day I should become

A singer with a Spanish bum

Who sings for women of great virtue



I'd sing to them with a guitar

I borrowed from coffee bar

Well, what you don't know doesn't hurt you



My name would be Antonio

And all my bridges I would burn

And if I gave them some they'd know

I expect something in return



I'd have to get drunk every night

To talk about virility

With some old grandmother who might

Be decked out like a Christmas tree



And tho' pink elephants I'd see

Tho' I'd be drunk as I could be

Still I would sing my song to me

About the time they called me Jackie



If I could be for only an hour

If I could be for an hour every day

If I could be for just one little hour

Cute, cute, cute in a stupid-ass way



And if I joined the social whirl

Became procurer of young girls

Then I would have my own bordellos



My record would be number one

And I'd sell records by the ton

All sung by many other fellows



My name would then be Handsome Jack

And I'd sell boats of opium

Whiskey that came from Twickenham

Authentic queers and phony virgins



I'd have a bank on every finger

A finger in every country

And every country ruled by me

I still know where I'd want to be



Locked up inside my opium den

Surrounded by some Chinamen

I'd sing the song that I sang then

About the time they called me Jackie



If I could be for only an hour

If I could be for an hour every day

If I could be for just one little hour

Cute, cute, cute in a stupid-ass way



Now tell me wouldn't it be nice

That if one day in paradise

I sang for all the ladies up there



And they would sing along with me

We'd be so happy there to be

'Cause down below is really nowhere



My name would then be Jupiter

And I would know where I was going

And then I would become all knowing

And my beard so long and flowing



If I became deaf dumb and blind

Because I pitied all mankind

And broke my heart to make things right

I know that every single night



When my angelic work was through

The Angels and the Devil too

Would sing my childhood song to me

About the time they called me Jackie



If I could be for only an hour

If I could be for an hour every day

If I could be for just one stinkin' hour

Cute, cute, cute in a stupid-ass way
