Apres Moi

(álbum: Down To Eartha - 1955)

We've been friends for a long long time,
We've shared again and again;
We like the same clothes and we like the same wine,
And we have similar taste in men!
Now we've found one man, and we can share him too,
For I will love him first and what is left I give to you!

Apres moi you can tell 'em
That his eyes are the colour of the sea.
Only apres moi means you tell 'em
After me, after me, after me!

Apres moi you can hold 'em
Till he melts like the sugar in your tea!
Only apres moi means you'll hold 'em
After me, after me, after me!

"Apres moi" I learned in France,
When I learn the meaning of the word romance.
If you wish to learn this too,
I suggest you watch me closely while I woo woo woo woo!

Mmm-mm-mm, I have kissed him;
Do you hear how he whispered "ooh-la-la!"?
Do you really think he will kiss you
Apres moi, apres moi, apres moi?

Do you hear how he whispered "ooh-la-la!"?
Do you really think he will kiss you
Apres moi, apres
Oh well, I really didn't like him anyway!
