Quel Filou

See him walking down the boulevard All the ladies go, oh la la See him stroll down Champs-Élysées All the girls stop and say, oh mon dieu See him dander down to Montparnasse All the mates there would see him face-à-face Cast an eye on the filou and on their way They would sigh, quel filou, oh mon dieu Quel filou, quel filou, quel filou One rendez-vous and you will fall for him, my darling Quel filou, quel filou, quel filou You'd fall in love, but he won't care at all 'bout you Watch his moves while he passes the café A smart black suit and a whimsical beret Listen now while he's singing the chanson du temps passé Quel filou, oh mon dieu Quel filou, quel filou, quel filou One rendez-vous and you will fall for him, my darling Quel filou, quel filou, quel filou You'd fall in love, but he won't care at all 'bout you I admit that I admire How he talks and what he says But I control my cowardly desires today Then one day on Avenue de Saint-Ouen He saw me and it turned him upside-down On his knees he was talking of amour And he would say, I love you pour toujours Quel filou, quel filou, quel filou Yes, I am sure I'll never fall for him, my darling Quel filou, quel filou, quel filou He'd want me to, but I won't fall for the filou Quel filou, quel filou, quel filou Yes, I am sure I'll never fall for him, my darling Quel filou, quel filou, quel filou He'd want me to, but I won't fall for the filou He'd want me to, but I won't fall for the filou He'd want me to, but I won't fall for the filou
