michel legrand - monsieur passepartout lyrics
(a few days later.)
[newsvendor]
extra, extra!
a sensation
unrecorded hitherto!
there’s a man who walks through concrete
so there’s nothing he can’t do!
he makes quick work
of the brickwork
as he’s gliding, sliding through
he’s the key for every keyhole
so they call him
“passepartout”!
[dusoleil]
(overhearing)
passepartout!
monsieur passepartout
there’s not a single thing i can’t do
there’s not a single place i can’t reach
there’s not a singlе wall i can’t reach
[newsvendor]
he’s no need for keys
’causе he can come and go as he pleases
if your house has a wall
then it’s highly possible he’ll pay you all a call
[madeleine]
i saw him jump through the window of a grocery wall
[charles]
and then retreat to the street to give the food to the poor
[painter]
he was distributing francs
which he purloined from the banks
[newsvendor]
so the whole of montmartre
now is richer than it ever was before!
[dusoleil]
what a total transformation
passepartout, not dusoleil!
(throws money)
[all]
hooray!
[dusoleil]
now the whole world is my playground
now the walls crumble away
[newsvendor]
i’ve never eaten foie gras
[painter]
i’ve never worn fancy clothes
[madeleine]
i’ve never tasted champagne
the bubbles went up my nose!
[charles]
now i can dine at maxine’s
[policeman]
now we can pamper our pets
[wh0re]
now i can follow my dreams
[all]
now we can pay all our debts
so, merci beaucoup!
[dusoleil]
the name’s monsieur passepartout
if you could do what i do
i bet that you’d do it, too!
(the newsvendor and the others, singing together:)
[all]
merci beaucoup
the name’s monsieur passepartout
don’t bother locking your doors
’cause the very next place he goes into will be yours
[newsvendor]
extra, extra!
read all about it
you may doubt it
but it’s true
[dusoleil]
(solo)
yes, the very next place i go into will be yours!
