Thousands of soldiers scattered all over
Garbage piling up at street corners
Demonstrations everyday and everywhere
Bastille besieged
Republique occupied
Nation closed up drowned with crowds
Concorde abandoned to tourists
Hooligans and masked attackers
Break shopwindows
Loot supermarkets
Early closing day everyday
No business on Sunday
Running the daily entertainment
Away from the violence
Away from the disturbance
Let’s go to tourist land
Disneyland is not so far
And it’s protected indeed
Soldiers and Disney vigilantes
What’s left in this maelstrom
The famous gay Paris state of mind
And gay it is funny amusing laughable
To forget the dead and to remember the end
The famous gay Paris state of mind
Is being destroyed by incompetents
And blown up by the unions
And their parasitic sidekicks
Back to Concorde and the US embassy
No danger there just tourists
Are terrorists dressing like tourists?
Damn this is hot and awesome
Let’s send some thousands more soldiers
Of all sorts kinds and species to save
The famous gay Paris state of mind
That has nearly got overwhelmed and flooded
By the Seine and its dirty water.
Yes indeed let’s cultivate in ourselves
The famous gay Paris state of mind.
Jacques Coulardeau
