L'Esqualita Songtext
Oh i would believe
That she′s a real diva
She tugs at the reins
Of a hundred chihuahuas
She'll live a few years
But she′ll have some adventures
Then sing of her sequins
With tears and with traumas
A fistfull of love
With Raoul Kowalski
He's only a slub
Of a corsican junkie
Hoods, heroin, hot Janes
Those fingers of finesse
Salo aftershave
Spend the rent on a new dress Chi Chi at the bar
Dressed a l'Esqualita
Talks of Johns and of Joans
And tomorrows rhinestones
Chi Chi at the bar
Dressed a l′Esqualita
Talks of Johns and of Joans
And tomorrows rhinestones
I′m so sick in my spare time
Humouring thugs
We could go out to dinner
(But we're always on drugs)
I′m so sick in my spare time
Humouring thugs
We could go out to dinner
(But we're always on drugs)
Conchita Piqeur
She will take on the whole floor
This Carmen in cling film
Will bathe in your applause
She pads out the glamour
With warmth from your dollars
Squeeze out your breath
With the strength from her shoulders
OK so its ham
But she means every word
In a ten minute ballad
Of despair and blood
With one hand to the bosom
Paid for by the ballad
But somewhere in there is a
Deep love for love
Chi Chi at the bar
Dressed a l′Esqualita
Talks of Johns and of Joans
And tomorrows rhinestones
Chi Chi at the bar
Dressed a l'Esqualita
Talks of Johns and of Joans
And tomorrows rhinestones
I′m so sick in my spare time
Humouring thugs
We could go out to dinner
(But we're always on drugs)
I'm so sick in my spare time
Humouring thugs
We could go out to dinner
(But we′re always on drugs)
Chi Chi at the bar
Dressed a l′Esqualita
Talks of Johns and of Joans
And tomorrows rhinestones
Chi Chi at the bar
Dressed a l'Esqualita
Talks of Johns and of Joans
And tomorrows rhinestones
I′m so sick in my spare time
Humouring thugs
We could go out to dinner
(But we're always on drugs)
And somewhere in there
Is a deep love for love
And somewhere in there
Is a deep love for love
And somewhere in there
Is a deep love for love
And somewhere in there
Is a deep love for love
And somewhere in there
Is a deep love for love
That she′s a real diva
She tugs at the reins
Of a hundred chihuahuas
She'll live a few years
But she′ll have some adventures
Then sing of her sequins
With tears and with traumas

And somewhere in there
Is a deep love for love
