We ran out of naives
that were way back ago,
the boys nowdays
aren't fools but the opposite.
We ran out of naives,
go seach for them
with torches and candles
even if they're fifteeners
you won't find them.
So go to the fields to get fools,
with their young charms
that you won't get them here.
What do you do Ninon,
don't make believe
of a good flat
jewels and a Renault!
Beware the mess around
that everything changed today,
behind every naive
a gigolo is hidden!
And you too, Germaine
take off that whim,
don't have ambitions
of voiturettes and Citroen.
I've seen more than a hundred
who rode a big train
and today they don't trust
not even a cent.
There are no more naives
of those with preety looks
today they're swindling naives
and rashy cunnings.
There are no more naives
and whoever fakes a messy love,
I warn you all,
he's so disguised
that one says with reason:
What a face he has!
This is a serious case
he's Casanova and thief
