Édith Piaf [Said It Better Than Me] lyrics

It's a heartwarming song

For the easily moved

The effect is all wrong

Plain to see I'm not moved

As I stand in the light

Of a shop that is closed

God, I'd love me a fight

There's no poem just prose

Édith Piaf said it better than me

Je ne regrette rien

Pretty song, but not intended for me

Time to put some Muzak on

There were no smoky dives

Few amours, fou or not

There were no petty crimes

Foreign substances bought

There were no midnight drives

With a crime boss's wife

Need a sentence at most

In assessing my life

Édith Piaf said it better than me

Je ne regrette rien

Pretty song, but not intended for me

Time to put some Muzak on

Drunken and short-lived flings

Montparnasse lights

Holding a hand of kings

My hunch was right

When's that night?

Édith Piaf said it better than me

Je ne regrette rien

Pretty song, but not intended for me

Time to put some Muzak on

Live fast and die young, live fast and die young, live fast and die young

Too late for that, too late for that

Live fast and die young, live fast and die young, live fast and die young

Too late for that, too late for that

Live fast and die young, live fast and die young, live fast and die young

Too late for that, too late for that

Live fast and die young, live fast and die young, live fast and die young

Too late for that, too late for that

Think of one single night

One so strong, you're aflame

Well, I'm sorry, time's up

Sorry, nothing will change

Édith Piaf said it better than me

Je ne regrette rien

Pretty song, but not intended for me

Time to put some Muzak on

Édith Piaf said it better

Born to be bad

I was born to be bad

I was born to be bad

Not this time, not this time

Born to be bad

I was born to be bad

I was born to be bad

Not this time, not this time

Édith Piaf said it better than me

Je ne regrette rien

Pretty song but not intended for me

Listen, there is Muzak on

Édith Piaf said it better
