La Sieste
Françoise Hardy
The Nap
And if you put on
The answering machine
It's better than earplugs
Haven't you noticed
That it's time
To take a nap
Moving around too soon
Would be a mistake
You need rest
Said the doctor
And what I need
Is tenderness
Close the shutters
And don't be afraid
I'm not a monster
Too bad if you're
In a bad mood
Sick and the rest
Too bad if you complain
About the heat
We need to buy a
Fan
In the meantime come
Otherwise I'll cry
You smell
Good, the cologne
I feel
Dishonest intentions
It's funny how often
Scents go to the head
As much
For me, I regret
You've always been
A seducer
Forgive my weakness
I can't resist
I'm getting dizzy
To hell with promises
My fingers are itching
Since a while ago
If you give me the right
I'll make a scene
Like an attack
On decency
If you're
For sale, I'll buy you
I'll even
Wash your socks
What would you say
To extending our nap
If you're
Agree, I'm ready
Only your kisses
Your heartbeats
Really interest me
You have to save them for me
Don't make a mistake
Or I'll tear you apart
I don't want to share you
Each to their own ways
If you come to boast
About love with others
I'll put you in the corner
And I'll sleep elsewhere
