Et ça gueule ça madame

Édith Piaf Édith Piaf

And It Screams, Ma'am

It's high like this...
No... I'm exaggerating...
Let's say, like this...
Well... about that!
It doesn't look like much,
But damn it!
It takes up space
This little nothing...

{Chorus:}
And it screams, ma'am
You can only hear her in the house
There's no doubt, she needs to find reasons
For that, she makes a big deal out of it!
And it screams, ma'am
She tells me from her height:
"Don't think you scare me!"
She's tense, she's stomping her feet!
She shows her claws, she opens her eyes
It's moving, it's yelling, it's all furious
I want to take her in my arms
And hold her tight against me...
But... it screams, ma'am!
It makes me laugh, but inside,
First of all, I'm a gentleman,
And it's safer!

To calm her down, I'm looking for something
I think to myself...
I'll give her a point!
And I say to her: "Well! I'm the one who's wrong!"
"Oh! You admit it!" she says.
So... tut-tut-tut...

{Chorus:}
