Serge Gainsbourg | Lyrics | Ballade de Melody Nelson

Pour l'amiti
L'amiti entre hommes et femmes
Impensable, parce que, il y a toujours
Sous jacent, le dsir animal

This is the story of Melody Nelson
Apart from me no one
Ever took her in his arms
Under her thumb, eyes in the sun

Oh, my Melody mine
Oh my Melody mine

She, has nothing but love poor Melody Nelson
Her life was more said than done
But her days were numbered
[Unverified] Count fourteen falls, fifteen on calls

A baby tiger was, Melody Nelson
Forever purring in the sun
Just as dangerous as a child
With a gun, shooting me down

Oh, my Melody mine
Melody Nelson

Still playing hurting games for fun
As adorable as dumb
Deaf to the sound
To what's going down, down, down
