Vesoul

You wanted to see Vierzon, and we saw Vierzon
You wanted to see Vesoul, and we saw Vesoul
You wanted to see Honfleur, and we saw Honfleur
You wanted to see Hamburg, and we saw Hamburg
I wanted to see Antwerp, we saw Hamburg again
I wanted to see your sister, and we saw your mother
As always

You liked Vierzon more, we left Vierzon
You liked Vesoul more, we left Vesoul
You liked Honfleur more, we left Honfleur
You liked Hamburg more, we left Hamburg
You wanted to see Antwerp, we only saw its suburbs
You liked your mother more, we left your sister
As always

But I tell you, I won't go any further
But I warn you, I won't go to Paris
Besides, I hate all the fanfare
Of the musette waltz and the accordion

You wanted to see Paris, and we saw Paris
You wanted to see Dutronc, and we saw Dutronc
I wanted to see your sister, I saw Mont Valérien
You wanted to see Hortense, she was in Cantal
I wanted to see Byzantium, and we saw Pigalle
At Saint-Lazare station, I saw the Flowers of Evil
By chance

You liked Paris more, we left Paris
You liked Dutronc more, we left Dutronc
Now I confuse your sister and Mont Valérien
From what I know of Hortense, I won't go to Cantal anymore
And too bad for Byzantium, since I saw Pigalle
And Saint-Lazare station, it's expensive and it hurts
By chance

But I tell you again
I won't go any further
But I warn you
The journey is over
Besides, I hate all the fanfare
Of the musette waltz and the accordion

You wanted to see Vierzon, and we saw Vierzon
You wanted to see Vesoul, and we saw Vesoul
You wanted to see Honfleur, and we saw Honfleur
You wanted to see Hamburg, and we saw Hamburg
I wanted to see Antwerp, and we saw Hamburg again
I wanted to see your sister, and we saw your mother
As always

You liked Vierzon more, we left Vierzon (heat, heat, heat)
You liked Vesoul more, we left Vesoul
You liked Honfleur more, we left Honfleur
You liked Hamburg more, we left Hamburg
You wanted to see Antwerp, we only saw its suburbs
You liked your mother more, we left your sister
As always (heat up guys)

But I tell you again (kaï)
I won't go any further
But I warn you, I won't go to Paris
Besides, I hate all the fanfare
Of the musette waltz and the accordion

You wanted to see Paris, and we saw Paris
You wanted to see Dutronc, and we saw Dutronc
I wanted to see your sister, I saw Mont Valérien
You wanted to see Hortense, she was in Cantal
I wanted to see Byzantium, and we saw Pigalle
At Saint-Lazare station, I saw the Flowers of Evil
