Оригинален текст
The way I see it, you said you just can’t wait it
Everybody’s in it for their wrong game
And you can’t please them all
It’s always someone callin you down
I do my best and I do good business
There’s a lot of people askin for my time
Tryina get ahead, tryina be a good friend of mine
[Chorus]
But I was a free man in paris
I felt infetted and alive
There was no one callin me up for favors
And no one’s future to decide
You know I’d go back there tomorrow
If all the work I’ve taken on
And start make a machinery,
Behind the popular song
I’m dealin dreamers and terrible screamers
Lately I wonder why I do it far
If I’d have my way, I’d just walk through those doors
And one day, down the Champs Elysee,
Going cafй to cabaret, lookin now I feel when I find
A very good friend of mine, oho
[Chorus]
I was a free man in paris
I felt infetted and alive
There was no one callin me up for favors
And no one’s future to decide
You know I’d go back there tomorrow
If all the work I’ve taken on
And start make a machinery,
Behind the popular song
Behind the popular song
