C'est Magnifique!



La vie est là
Qui vous prend par le bras
Oh la la la
C'est magnifique !
Des jours tous bleus
Des baisers lumineux,
bss bss bss bss
C'est magnifique !
Donner son cœur
Avec un bouquet d'fleurs
Oh la la la
Mais c'est magnifique !
Et faire un jour
Un mariage d'amour
C'est magnifique !

One last kiss

Sober Saturday mornings, fading dreams and longings
Memories of night, fairies drifting by take flight
Whispering wings teasing stringing me along for the shindig
Music! O muse, sing.

Laughter

The most noble man is he who with a good conscience can wholeheartedly laugh at his follies and pursuits and still keep straight enough a face to bear the gravity of society.

Come, tell me a joke and if it does not crease the edges of my mouth, then tickle me, tickle me.

Transient

Roll it up
Roll it up
Roll it up
Ere the flame burn out and it's cool to the touch
Taste red drops running down the hand
Grasp eternity's hour in your hand
Munch, lunch, soon it will all be mulch
Seed the ground and ears sprout to hear the whistling wind and peck the dirt
Give and receive what was at the start
Of what rises when the flames die out
Take part and when he sings at the sun, depart
Pass by the man on the curb
