Jeunes Femmes Et Vieux Messieurs

You who have one foot in the grave
Be careful where you put your hand
If it slips if you fall
On a cowhide, it's not smart

Young women and old men
If they don't have love, what does it matter
Young women and old men
Love is enough for two

If you don't have a hair on your head
Why do you need to hit yourself?
You'll get your mojo back
When you go to mess up her hair

Young women and old men
If they don't have any hair anymore, what does it matter
Young women and old men
Hair is enough for two

You who walk down Rue Pigalle
Be careful on your diet
When you go back up to Les Halles
The thread of onion soup

Young women and old men
If they're on a diet, what does it matter
Young women and old men Gentlemen
They have enough appetite for two

But before you wrinkle her lace
By laying her on the couch
You'll have to be comfortable with her
Put her in your will

Young women and old gentlemen
If they're broke, what does it matter
Young women and old gentlemen
They have enough money for two

When she tells you she loves you
Be very careful with your heart
If she lives on the fourth floor
And the elevator breaks down

Young women and old gentlemen
At that age, it doesn't matter anymore
Young women and old gentlemen
They can wait a day or two
