Madeleine [English translation]
Madeleine [English translation]
I went to her place
And simply asked her right away:
"So when are we going to get married?"
She held her breath
Because a man I didn't know
Was standing in her bedroom door
That's how it was revealed:
I was just the second fiancé in her house
Madeleine, I don't like this circus
I don't like standing in the limelight
And acting the fool for others
Madeleine, you always need your audience
While I'm just kicking my heels
And I have to cope with your caprices
You do to me whatever you want
You ridicule me
But I've always forgiven you
That's my problem
Madeleine, this circus will go on
For as long as we two meet
I will always be your fool
Despite many worries
And troubles with you
We still set a wedding date
With our friends
And men of honour
We went to the registry office
There, at the front gate
The other man was standing and this time, he was singing:
"Madeleine, I don't like this circus"
"I don't like standing in the limelight"
"And acting the fool for others"
"Madeleine, you always need your audience"
"While I'm just kicking my heels"
"And I have to cope with your caprices"
Madeleine, la la la...
Madeleine, la la la...
