Sous Le Soleil Exactement
Serge Gainsbourg
Under the Sun Exactly
A precise point under the tropic
Of Capricorn or Cancer
Since then I forgot which one
Under the sun exactly
Not beside, not anywhere
Under the sun, under the sun
Exactly, just below
In which country, in which district?
It was right by the sea
Since then I forgot which one
Under the sun exactly
Not beside, not anywhere
Under the sun, under the sun
Exactly, just below
Was it New Mexico
Towards Cape Horn, towards Cape Verde?
Was it on an archipelago?
Under the sun exactly
Not beside, not anywhere
Under the sun, under the sun
Exactly, just below
It's surely an erotic dream
That I have with my eyes open
And yet if it were real?
Under the sun exactly
Not beside, not anywhere
Under the sun, under the sun
Exactly just below
