lyrics

I know this may provoke skepticism and doubt
But I pay the rent with the sounds from my mouth
And I may not be much of a singer, it’s true
But every song I sing is for you.

Every song I sing is for you.
Every song I sing is for you.
It’s not for him or for her to listen to.
Every song I sing is for you.

My clothes are a mess and my lips are thin
But I’ll curl the hairs on your head, straighten the ones on your chin
And if you ever go bald I’ll just be closer to your ear
And these are the words you’ll hear:

Every song I sing is for you.
Every song I sing is for you.
It’s something you’ll just have to get used to.
Every song I sing is for you.

You heard what Helen’s face did to those Trojan ships?
That’s nothing compared to what I can do with my lips
When I wrap them around a chorus or two
And I’ll sing until my lips turn blue

Every song I sing is for you.
Every song I sing is for you.
I don’t sing for reviewers or reviews.
Every song I sing is for you.

Some say the French are the masters of amour
And I tip my hat to Brinks, Freschard and Gainsbourg
But the flavour of the day is anglais
So encore une fois, repeter

Every song I sing is for you.
Every song I sing is for you.
Every song I sing, c’est pour vous
Every song I sing is for you.
