Saint-Ouen's Blues A tree without branches A bird on Monday appears In the grass mown free Leaky are my sneakers Got so few tricks up sleeves Fried onion sauce with brie A platter with records An accordion which fails Of cats of rats of mice wee A bike cut into sections A hard shot that provokes The travels of banshees Vague vive la Franch-es by Auvergnats from Avranches to Kabylies in Sidis The shit which sashays A passing seduction leans A hundred sous milady Hair falls in avalanches Eyes no they're periwinkles Nice girls of Paris My sadness which confides The blue even white flowers And my heart which is busy And my heart which is busy At Saint-Ouen near Paris
