Apollinaire
Lyricist:William B Carney, Jeremy Ira Parzen
From Saint-Germain-des-Pres To Place Edgar Quinet Un flaneur supercool Un boulevardier
Born in Rome, near the Spanish Stairs A guy called Guy, Guy Apollinaire A nom de plume, a nom de guerre For nursing poetry like an au pair
A guy named Guy Apollinaire Apollinaire

From Saint-Germain-des-Pres To Place Edgar Quinet Un flaneur supercool, un boulevardier Led the avant garde from the top of Montmartre Part Baudelaire, part Warhol superstar
Said he spirited Mona Lisa from the Louvre But the writer of 'Alcools' was a spirits lover Lived in the zone of pure desire The great French language versifier
