She put on the wall, over the cradle
An Arthur Rimbaud's* photo
With his hair in the brush, she thinks he's handsome
In the kid's room, bravo
I found it strange, but I told nothing
About the little angels on the wallpaper
Her ridiculous ideas, they've made me laugh
Since she's pregnant...
She wakes up at night, she wants to eat some strawberries
She has strong desires
I care about her, I make everything possible**
So that she doesn't lack of anything, my dear
It's like I'm trying hard, but can't succeed***
As if I didn't exist anymore for her
I've ended up abandoned, alone in my trousers
Since she's pregnant...
At night, she knits drinking some verbena tea
I untie her balls of wool
She uses the mirrors to look at herself in [them]
To find herself weird, always
I tell her that she's as beautiful as a too ripe fruit
She thinks I'm mocking her around, that's for sure
We really need to say how things are, I've been driving crazy
Since she's pregnant...
I need to take off my shoes when I go back to my bedroom
From the little nightingale that she's taking care of****
It's that her little boy, who's coming in December,
She protects him like a she wolf
She even criticises the calm cat
Saying that it's losing its hairs
She doesn't want to see it walking around the bed anymore
Since she's pregnant...
When I move my hands to the other side of her back
I feel like punches, it moves
I say to her: "you're a garden, a flower, a stream"
And so she blushes
Sometimes what makes me sad, what hurts me
When I look at her belly and at mine
It's that even I became gay as hell
I would never be pregnant...
