[Lyrics] Veronique – In Him Lyrics

Pardon me, but I’ll be late –
Gotta catch my subway train
Pardon me, and thanks a lot
But Mr. Jaffee, you’re insane
Goodbye
Pardon me, I’ve got my folks –
What I earn pays the rent
Pardon me and thanks a lot
But Mr. Jaffee, I’m content
Uh-huh
Did you really think I can do this?
Yeah! Begin reading
Veronique, she wink an eye
Veronique, the bullets fly
Veronique, she close her door
And start the Franco-Prussian war
Veronique, the femme fatale
Veronique, the fleur-de-mal
Veronique! Veronique! Veronique! Veronique!
Veronique! Veronique! Veronique! Veronique! Veronique! Veronique! Veronique!
Veronique, she wink an eye
Veronique, the bullets fly
Veronique, she close her door
And start the Franco-Prussian war
Veronique, the femme fatale
Veronique, the fleur-de-mal
Veronique, shut Bismarck out
And make the population shout
“Save our city
Let old Bismarck have a look
Save our Paris
You look good in history book”
Ah, but Veronique
Won’t let him have a peek
Paris fall in boom one week
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom
Veronique! Veronique! Veronique! Veronique! Veronique! Veronique!
Veronique, she snap her fan
Veronique, she make a plan
Veronique: “I save the town
But I don’t do it lying down”
Veronique, with fiery pride
Veronique, she turn the tide
Veronique! Veronique! Veronique! Veronique! Veronique! Veronique!
Veronique, she face the Hun
Veronique, she face the gun
Veronique, she start to dance
While shouting bravely “Vive La France!”
Veronique, a sudden hush
Veronique, shout “Kill the Boche!”
Suddenly a shot, then two
And she fall lifeless down la rue
But her spirit dances on above the fray
Liberte, egalite, fraternite
France is saved and freedom once again can speak
All because of Veronique!
Veronique, Veronique, Veronique, Veronique
Ah! Veronique! Ah!
She close the door
She start the war
She won’t say yes
Won’t lift her dress
She save the town
She don’t lie down
She turn the tide
With fiery pride
Vive la France
Vive la France
Vive la France!
