Jef

No Jef you're not alone
But stop crying
Like that in front of everyone
Because of a half-old lady
Because of a fake blonde
Left you hanging

No Jef you're not alone
But you know you make me ashamed
To sob like that
Stupidly in front of everyone
Because a three-quarters whore
Slapped you in the face

No Jef you're not alone
But you're a shame to see
People are making fun of us
Let's get out of this sidewalk
Come on Jef come come

Come I have three pennies left
We'll go drink them
At Mother Françoise's
Come Jef, come
Come I have three pennies left
And if it's not enough
Well, I'll have the slate
Then we'll go eat
Mussels and then fries
Fries and then mussels
And Moselle wine
And if you're still sad
We'll go see the girls
At Mrs. Andrée's
Seems there are new ones
We'll be fine together
We'll sing again like before
Like when we were young
Like when it was the time
When I had money

No Jef you're not alone
But stop your grimaces
Lift your hundred kilos
Move your body
I know your heart is heavy
But you have to lift it

No Jef you're not alone
But stop sobbing
Stop spreading yourself
Stop repeating
That you're good to throw yourself in the water
That you're good to hang yourself
No Jef you're not alone

But it's not a sidewalk anymore, it's becoming a cinema
Where people come to see you
Come on Jef come come

Come I have my guitar left
I'll light it up for you and we'll be Spanish
Jef, come come
Like when we were kids
Even though I didn't like it
You'll imitate the nightingale
Then we'll find a bench
We'll talk about America
Where we'll go
When we have money Jef
And if you're still sad
Or just if you look like it
I'll tell you how
You'll become Rockfeller
We'll be fine together
We'll sing again like before
Like when we were beautiful Jef
Like when it was the time
Before we were drunkards
Come on Jef come come
Yes yes Jef yes come.
