Elle m'appartient [C'est une artiste] [English translation]

She’s got everything she wants

She’s an artist don’t ever doubt it

She’s got everything she wants

She’s an artist don’t ever doubt it

She can make whole nights white

And cast a black shadow over your days

She never trembles

And nowhere can she fall

She never trembles

And nowhere can she fall

As she’s the child of no one

The law never touches her

She wears an Egyptian ring

That sparkles when she has to speak

She wears an Egyptian ring

That sparkles when she’s going to speak

She’s a high society collector

And you an old-fashioned passer-by

You’ll start on your feet

Proud to hear her least whisper

You’ll start on your feet

Proud to hear her least whisper

You’ll end up like the others

Kneeling in front of her key-hole

Go and bow down to her on Sunday

And make a detour for her party

Go and bow down to her on Sunday

And make a detour for her party

For Halloween buy her a trumpet

And for Christmas give her a drum

For Halloween buy her a trumpet

And for Christmas give her a drum
