Les Amoureux Des Bancs Publics
Words and music: Georges Brassens
Arrangements: Oswald d'Andrea
1 People who see wrongly
Think that the green benches
That we see on the sidewalks
Are made for the impotent or the potbellied.
But that is an absurdity,
Because, at the truth,
They are there, it's common knowledge'
To welcome budding loves for a while.
R The lovers who kiss on the benches public,
Public benches, public benches,
Not giving a damn about the oblique glance
Honest passers-by,
Lovers who kiss on public benches,
Public benches, public benches,
By calling themselves Is plant pathetic,
Have very friendly little faces!
2 They hold hands,
Talk about tomorrow,
Azure blue paper
What will the walls of their bedroom be covered with...
They already see each other, gently,
She sewing, he smokes,
In a safe well-being r,
And choose the first names of their first baby...
3 When the holy Machin family
Cross paths
Two of these misguided people,
She boldly shouts venomous remarks at them...
Don't stop the whole family
The father, the mother, the daughter, the son, THE Saint Esprit
Would like, from time to time,
To be able to behave like them...
4 When the months have passed,
When they have calmed down
Their beautiful, blazing dreams,
When their sky is covered with big heavy clouds,
They will realize, moved,
That it is random streets,
On one of these famous benches,
That they experienced the best part of their love...
