Bonjour, Paris! (Extrait de la comédie musicale « Drôle de frimousse ») |
DICK. |
I want to step out |
Down the Champs-Élysées, |
From the Arch of Triumph |
To the Petit Palais. |
That’s for me: |
Bonjour, Paris! |
MAGGIE. |
I want to wander |
Through the Saint-Honoré, |
Do some window shopping |
In the Rue de la Paix |
That’s for me: |
Bonjour, Paris! |
JO. |
I want to see the den of thinking men |
like Jean-Paul Sartre. |
I must philosophise with all the guys |
around Montmartre and Montparnasse. |
ALL THREE. |
I’m strictly (a) tourist |
But I couldn’t care less. |
When they parlez-vous me |
Then I gotta confess. |
That’s for me: |
Bonjour, Paris! |
MEN. |
Light up the Louvre museum |
Jazz up the Latin quarter |
To show the richest and the poorest: |
Here it comes, |
The great American tourist! |
MAGGIE. |
This has got to be illegal |
What I feel |
Trés gay, trés chic, |
Trés mag-nifique |
C’est moi, c’est vous |
C’est grand, c’est too tout… |
It’s too good to be true, |
All the things we can do. |
You do things to my point of view. |
MEN. |
We can show you the North or |
We can show you the South then |
We can show you the West! |
MAGGIE. |
Come on and show me (& MEN) the best! |
MAGGIE. |
That’s for me: |
Bonjour, Paris! |
PEOPLE. |
Bonjour. |
MAGGIE. |
Bonjour! |
JO. |
That’s for me: |
Bonjour, Paris! |
PEOPLE. |
Bonjour! |
DICK. |
Living is easy, |
The livin' is high. |
All good Americans |
Should come here to die. |
PEOPLE. |
Bonjour! |
MAGGIE. |
Is it real? |
Am I here? |
JO. |
Am I here? |
Is it real? |
MAGGIE. |
There’s something missing |
MAGGIE & JO. |
There’s something missing, I know. |
ALL THREE. |
There’s something missing |
There’s something missing, I know: |
There’s still one place |
I’ve got to go! |
MAGGIE. |
Oh! |
DICK. |
Oh no! |
MAGGIE. |
I thought that you were tired. |
DICK. |
You said that you were tired. |
JO. |
I heard you say that you… |
MAGGIE. |
You told me you were tired! |
DICK. |
You said that you were so exhausted! |
JO. |
You said you needed sleep! |
MAGGIE. |
You told that you had to rest. |
DICK. |
You said you ought to rest. |
JO. |
I thought you wanted rest. |
MAGGIE. |
Is this what you call rest? |
DICK. |
I haven’t time to rest! |
JO. |
This fussing and fretting |
It’s getting my goat. |
DICK. |
Let’s all let our hair down, |
We’re in the same boat! |
All. |
We’re strictly tourists, |
You can titter and jeer. |
All we want to say is |
La Fayette, we are here |
On a spree, |
Bonjour, Paris! |
Bonjour! |
DICK Well, how was that? |
