Silly Stephanie (1989)

Les coulisses

Petit country dans l'esprit de "the ballad of John and Yoko" des beatles pour l’histoire de cette Stephanie la reine des emmerdeuses (tout lien avec des personnes existantes ou ayant existé étant purement fortuit car comme d’habitude, à cette époque, le thème de la chanson et souvent le titre était inspiré par le yaourt de la verson ébauche). Avec même de la "slide-guitar" et de l'harmonica.

Paroles

When I met Stéphanie, she was just a lovely girl
I didn't realize at once what she really was
And I fell in love with her, I gave my heart to her
And since this time,
I've never had my life for me
I spend all my time
To repair all what she had broken in me

A day, at home, when I was sleeping like a log
She seized the opportunity to bring back her dog
It was this kind of dog, you should think it's not a dog
It seems to be a horse you see
It was bigger than me
And when I wake up, it was
Lying on the bed with me

And sometimes when I don't feel quite
I resign myself
But tommorrow, if I'll feel stronger than her
I will explose

A day later later, I was coming back to home
She was in the kitchen cooking two eggs for us
And suddenly, curtains began to catch fire, fire
And the wall began to catch fire
And my house was going down

A day we were climbing up the Eiffel Tower
She jumped into space just to see if she could fly
And in my own I prayed for that she couldn't
It was a big surprise to me
She's waiting down for me
With a rubber fastened to her, she was laughing at me

And sometimes when I don't feel quite
I resign myself
But tomorrow, if I'll feel stronger than her
I will explose

There's no getting away from it when once one gets to know her
There's no need to be a genius to see she's fully silly
So I take my luggage, I jump in the first taxi
And I run, run, run
Too far for her to see me
You can be sure that I'll never come back again
