lyrics

Francois The Postman

Francois the postman rides … on his bike
Francois the postman flies … through the sky

He wants to make us laugh
A black and white photographic scene

See Jacques Tati dance … in the night
See Jacques Tati dance … for you and I

He wants to make us laugh
A black and white photographic scene

And when he comes around
You know he’ll hit the bottle … now …

Francois le facteur fait .…. du velo
Francois le facteur vole ….. dans les airs

Il veut nous faire rire
Une photo en noir et blanc

And when he comes around
You know he’ll hit the bottle … now …

And when he comes around
You know he’ll hit the bottle … now …
