Chanson Des Jumelles

DELPHINE AND SOLANGE
We are two twin sisters
Born under the sign of Gemini
C D E F C B, B C D E E E B A
Both of us young ladies
Who had lovers very early
C D E F C B, B C D E E E B A

DELPHINE
We were both raised by our Mom
Who sacrificed for us and worked so hard

SOLANGE
She wanted to make us scholars
And to do that she sold fries all her life.

DELPHINE AND SOLANGE
We were both born of an unknown father
You can’t tell, but when we’re bare
We both have on the small of our backs
It’s crazy...

DELPHINE
... there’s a beauty mark...

SOLANGE
... that he had on his cheek.

DELPHINE AND SOLANGE
We are two twin sisters, born under the sign of
Gemini
C D E F C B, B C D E E E B A
Loving the catchy tunes, the puns, and good words
C D E F C B, B C D E E E B A

DELPHINE
We are both cheerful and naïve...

SOLANGE
... waiting for love to give what it’s supposed to...

DELPHINE
... what you’d call a love at first sight...

SOLANGE
... or wild passion...

DELPHINE AND SOLANGE
... we are both ready to lose our minds
We both have a delicate soul.

DELPHINE
Passionate artists...

SOLANGE
... musicians...

DELPHINE
... acrobats...

SOLANGE
... looking for a good man...

DELPHINE
... looking for a handsome man...

DELPHINE AND SOLANGE
... basically an ideal man, with or without flaws
We are two twin sisters, born under the sign of
Gemini
C D E F C B, B C D E E E B A
With some lead in the brains, and fantasy in spades
C D E F C B, B C D E E E B A

SOLANGE
I won’t always teach the art of the arpeggio
I’ve been living off music theory lessons till now
But I’m fed up, this province is boring me
I wanna live now off my art in Paris

DELPHINE
I won’t teach dance my whole life
In Paris, I’ll give my luck a shot too
Why waste my time teaching steps
When I want to go to the opera

DELPHINE AND SOLANGE
We are two twin sisters, born under the sign of
Gemini
C D E F C B, B C D E E E B A
Two hearts, four eyes, ready to embark allegretto
C D E F C B, B C D E E E B A
