LEARN LYRICS

I met her in Geneva
She tells me about her dream life
About the chalet, the boarding school
Vacations in Megève
Sure
She was a good student
Parents in cosmetics
In the lipstick business
She speaks French, German
Italian, English
In winter she bobsleds
In summer she surfs in Anglet
She knows Aspen, Bamiyan
And the Mövenpick
Goes off-piste
And does Nordic combined
Otherwise it's hypokhâgne, khâgne
Lots of brawling
Training with the Legion
In the woods of Balagne
She's forbidden
To drink champagne
Because at any moment
The orga can tell her
You gotta croak
I've got a date with her at L'Usine
A club, grab my taxi
Near Caroline Street
I hop out, there's reggae
Ragga, rock
I grope like a blind guy
At Duroc station
There's no tension
I only see people dancing
The music's live
But it feels like soundchecks
Guys in suits
Talk to locals
Plainclothes cops
Who quietly hold court
She's at the bar
With a grenadine diabolo
There's tension
It's not the Cajoline ad
A guy lifts his hand
Toward her face and
When I yelled
Watch out
The director said Cut
It's
Cinema for the blind
Cinema for the blind
Cinema for the blind
Cinema for the blind
Cinema for the blind
Cinema for the blind
There's tension
And action
Love, chases
And explosions
Thanks to the impresario
She got a script
Called The Woman from Rio
Without a single scene in Rio
A remake of
The Man from Rio
With cigarillo-toting brutes
Shot in studio
But she pulls it off brilliantly
If the edit's good
The young actress will be bankable
The actor might be
A mega-star like Clark Gable
Playing King Arthur
In the Knights
Of the
Searching for the Grail
In Big Apple's boroughs
Under the spotlights and the projectors
Near Malakoff
They're face to face
But in fact
It's not Face Off
Since there's not much
There won't be
Any molotov cocktail
Or sound recording
The prod chose a voice-over
None of the techs
Went to La Fémis
And the dialog writer only worked
On The Artist
We realize we're
Hong Kong stars
Hoping to see ourselves
On Hollywood Boulevard
It's
Cinema for the blind
Cinema for the blind
Cinema for the blind
Cinema for the blind
Cinema for the blind
Cinema for the blind
There's tension
And action
Love, chases
And explosions
