The Lamount of the mound
The very pallid moon rests a diadem on your red hair The very red moon splashes your pierced skirt with glory The very pale moon caresses the opal of your indifferent eyes Princess from the street be the most welcome in my broken heart Chorus: The stairways up to La Butte Can make the wreched sigh While windmill wings of the moulin Shelter you and I My sweet Mandigotte i can feel your hand searching for mine I can feel your breast and your thin waist, I forget my sorrow I feel on your lips a taste of fever of underfed kid And on your caress i can fell a trance which annhiliates me The stairways up to La Butte Can make the wreched sigh While windmill wings of the moulin Shelter you and I Here she goes she trots the floating moon a princess also Lalalalala lalalalala My radiant dreams The stairways up to La Butte Can make the wreched sigh While windmill wings of the moulin Shelter you and I
Complainte De La Butte
La lune trop blême, pose un diadème, sur tes cheveux roux La lune trop rousse, de gloire éclabousse, ton jupon plein d'trous La lune trop pâle, caresse l'opale, de tes yeux blasés Princesse de la rue, soit la bienvenue dans mon coeur brisé The stairways up to la butte can make the wretched sigh, While windmill wings of the moulin shelter you and I Ma p'tite mandigote, je sens ta menotte qui cherche ma main Je sens ta poitrine, et ta taille fine, j'oublie mon chagrin Je sens sur tes lèvres une odeur de fièvre De gosse mal nourri et sous ta caresse je sens une ivresse qui m'anéantit The stairways up to la butte can make the wretched sigh, While windmill wings of the moulin shelter you and I Mais voilà qu'elle trotte, la lune se flotte La princesse aussi, mon rêve évanoui Les escaliers de la butte sont durs aux miséreux, Les ailes des moulins protégent les amoureux
