Il m'a vue nue

He Saw Me Naked

One night, I was swimming in the deep.
With nothing on, just my skin,
No one could see me
But the dark sky.
Suddenly the moon came out to play,
I was gonna say: "Your lips, Phoebe!"
When I heard nearby
A startled cry.
There was a guy on a rock,
Not too high.
He went "Ah!" and I,
In the water,
I went "Oh!"

{Chorus}
He saw me naked,
Completely naked,
No cover-ups or support things,
I blushed all the way to my vaccinations.
He saw me naked,
Totally naked,
Out of human respect,
I covered my face with my two hands.
But I think that
With this thoughtless move
I forgot to hide a few little bits.
He saw me naked,
All the way naked,
More than naked.

While he was climbing down from that rock,
I started to swim.
I landed quickly,
I grabbed my clothes.
But like a wild animal, there he was,
Chasing me, oh! my gosh!
I ran to shake him off
Without stopping,
And I thought:
He'll catch up to me soon,
As long as he doesn't figure out my disguise.

{Chorus}
He saw me naked,
Completely naked,
He took off like a dart,
But I wasn't slow to start.
He saw me naked,
Totally naked.
I'm a young girl, that's clear,
A bit like Miss Helyett.
Because since that fateful night,
I can't marry anyone but him.
He saw me naked,
So damn naked,
Super naked.
