|
| [00:10.554] |
At the villa of the Baron De Signac |
| [00:15.276] |
Where I spent a somewhat infamous year |
| [00:20.294] |
At the villa of the Baron De Signac |
| [00:25.080] |
I had ladies in attendance |
| [00:27.687] |
Fire-opal pendants |
| [00:30.506] |
Liaisons! What's happened to them |
| [00:35.028] |
Liaisons today? |
| [00:40.068] |
Disgraceful! What's become of them? |
| [00:44.118] |
Some of them hardly pay their shoddy way |
| [00:49.859] |
What once was a rare Champagne |
| [00:52.673] |
Is now just an amiable hock |
| [00:55.269] |
What once was a villa at least Is "digs" |
| [00:59.792] |
What once was a gown with train |
| [01:02.786] |
Is now just a simple little frock |
| [01:05.372] |
What once was a sumptuous feast is figs |
| [01:11.182] |
No, not even figs—Raisins |
| [01:18.852] |
Ah, liaisons! |
| [01:23.300] |
Now, where was I? Where was I? Oh, yes |
| [01:29.114] |
At the palace of the Duke of Ferrara |
| [01:33.986] |
Who was prematurely deaf but a dear |
| [01:38.962] |
At the palace of the Duke of Ferrara |
| [01:43.949] |
I acquired some position |
| [01:46.266] |
Plus a tiny Titian |
| [01:49.136] |
Liaisons! What's happened to them |
| [01:53.908] |
Liaisons today? |
| [01:59.171] |
To see them—indiscriminate women |
| [02:03.690] |
It pains me more than I can say |
| [02:09.037] |
The lack of taste that they display |
| [02:16.402] |
Where is style? |
| [02:18.648] |
Where is skill? |
| [02:20.524] |
Where is forethought? |
| [02:24.826] |
Where's discretion of the heart |
| [02:27.643] |
Where's passion in the art |
| [02:30.342] |
Where's craft? |
| [02:33.701] |
With a smile |
| [02:35.542] |
And a will |
| [02:37.477] |
But with more thought |
| [02:41.843] |
I acquired a chateau extravagantly overstaffed |
| [02:50.107] |
Too many people muddle sex with mere desire |
| [02:54.812] |
And when emotion intervenes, the nets descend |
| [02:59.282] |
It should on no account perplex, or worse, inspire |
| [03:03.891] |
It's but a pleasurable means to a measurable end |
| [03:13.724] |
Why does no one comprehend? |
| [03:17.893] |
Let us hope this lunacy is just a trend |
| [03:23.399] |
Where was I? Where was I? Oh, yes |
| [03:29.268] |
In the castle of the King of the Belgians |
| [03:34.412] |
We would visit through a false chiffonier |
| [03:39.219] |
In the castle of the King of the Belgians |
| [03:44.104] |
Who, when things got rather touchy |
| [03:46.911] |
Deeded me a duchy |
| [03:49.791] |
Liaisons! What's happened to them? |
| [03:55.178] |
Liaisons today |
| [03:59.566] |
Untidy—take my daughter, I taught her |
| [04:04.425] |
I tried my best to point the way |
| [04:09.664] |
I even named her Desiree |
| [04:17.680] |
In a world where the kings are employers |
| [04:26.267] |
Where the amateur prevails and delicacy fails to pay |
| [04:34.399] |
In a world where the princes are lawyers |
| [04:42.990] |
What can anyone expect except to recollect |
| [04:50.926] |
Liai— |
