(Dinner by Bénabar
Véronique - ACSE Le Cygne)
[Instrumental]
I don't want to go to this dinner
I'm depressed and tired
They'll pardon us, let's not go
What's more, I must go on a diet
I'm squeezed in my shirt
Makes me look like a chipolata
I can't go out like that
I do like your friends - that's not the problem
But I won't meet them because I don't feel like it
What the hell, let's not go
Let's hide under the sheets
We'll order pizzas, you, the telly and I
Let's call, apologize
Let's improvise, invent something
Let's tell your friends
That we don't like them, too bad
I don't feel like it, everything depresses me
And it happens by chance
That there's a really great movie
on TV this evening
A masterwork of the Seventh Art
That I'd like to watch again
A very committed drama
About Saint-Tropez police
It's a social satire
With the main character
played by de Funès
And there are extra-terrestrials
What the hell, let's not go
Let's hide under the sheets
We'll order pizzas, you, the telly and I
Let's call, apologize
Let's improvise, invent something
Let's tell your friends
That we don't like them, too bad
What the hell, let's not go
Let's hide under the sheets
We'll order pizzas, you, the telly and I
I'm shivering, I'm feeling weak
I think I'm ill
It wouldn't be reasonable
To go out right now
I prefer not to take risks
It may be catching
It's better if I stay here
It bothers me but it's better this way
You call me an egoist
How dare you?
I who am unhappy and sad
And I don't even have a home cinema!
What the hell, let's not go
Let's hide under the sheets
We'll order pizzas, you, the telly and I
Let's call, apologize
Let's improvise, invent something
Let's tell your friends
That we don't like them, too bad
What the hell, let's not go
Let's hide under the sheets
We'll order pizzas, you, the telly and I
