Mireille [English translation]

Would you mind lending me your hear for a moment?

I'd like to tell you the story of Mireille.

Mireille is a fly, an unremarkable fly.

She goes to sleep at night and wakes up at dawn.

(chorus)

Ah zoom zoom.......

One day, she landed in the cell of a rotten scum.

Raymond was his name, he had got twenty years.

Rapist, thief, killer, Rayomd is biding his time.

Bored silly, the fly came to him as a surprise.

(chorus)

Raymond: "Hello, fly!". Mireille: "Hello, Raymond!"

Let's be good friends, and friends for good.

The tamed brute, since he spent all day playing

with Mireille, was released for good behaviour.

(chorus)

What is there to do, when you're fresh out of jail

with a fly in one pocket and a few coins in the other?

"What about becoming a flea, cockroaches and bee tamer?

I'd be a manager, and Mireille would be the star of the show"

Oh yeah!

(chorus)

"Let's see how that'll work and if you'll baffle

the patrons of this bar. Come on, Mireille, do your show."

"Uh-oh? A fly? If you'll excuse me" said the waiter.

And with a fierce thumb...

Ah zzzzoom... zoom ah zzzz zzoom zzz... zoom...

Mireille!
