Pierrot Le Fool

lyrics

PIERROT LE FOOL

Its said that Pierrot was a fool
so he was drowned in their misery pool
so they drowned him in their misery pool
C'est l'histoire de Pierrot

Being a bastard child
his passion for life was far to wild
As the young went and lost - their hearts at school
Pierrot said: I'd rather become fool/ Je préfère être un imbécile
My mind is mine, let it be!/ Mon esprit est à moi, que ce soit!

Oh Pierrot – such a fool

It was a dream, to be all what he could be
and clo-sed his ey-es to teach the heart to see
He said: the first step is to believe

That we got magic sticks
to undo a reality playing dirty tricks
Use them together to change the weather
and give the world/beauty a chance to become
We want it to keep us, let it be!

Oh, Pierrot le Fou

Its not for you, to challenge our God
we'll nail you on a cross and drink your blood
Prosperity for a few is our game
and now you die (in the flame)

When existence is ruled by the power of fear
It take up arms to make goodness disappear
And a pure heart can be far to bright to see
So it was robbed of its right to be

Pierrot le Fou

But Pie-rrot - the Fool, can never die as
his ma-gic of stupidity is kept alive
It is easy to be hard and cool
but it takes a hero to be a fool
mais il faut un héros pour être un imbécile

Pierrot – long live you nobody's fool!
