Belleville rendezvous
I won't finish my life in Timbuktu
Cheeks so tight my lips are turning blue
I'd like to be wrinkly Utterly wrinkly
Wrinkled like a Triplet from Belleville
Don't want to wind my days in Acapulco
Stiff as a board dancing tango-tango
I'd love to be twisted Utterly twisted
Twisted like a Triplet from Belleville
(Come on Girls!)
Swinging Belleville rendez-vous
Marathon dancing doop dee doop
Voodoo Cancan balais taboo
Au Belleville swinging rendez-vous
I won't be an old man in Singapore
Playing scrabble and eating petits-fours
I want to be wicked, Utterly wicked,
Wicked like the Triplets from Belleville
I don't want to end my life in Honolulu
Singing like a bird in an ormolu
I want to be as rough Every bit as rough
Rough, rough as a Triplet from Belleville
I won't finish my days in Miami Beach
Sweating my heart stalking like an old bitch
I'd like to be flying (Hop!) Utterly flying (Hop! Hop!)
Flying like a Triplet from Belleville
Don't mind ending my life in Katmandu
Signing with a sitar and a guru
But I'd prefer to be Much prefer to be
Swinging with the Triplets from Belleville
(Come on Girls!)
