Letra de Buns 'N' Roses
Roses, glorious roses Lovingly planted fruit of the land Fresh milk, creamy and frothy Straight from my dairy, squeezed by my handRibbons, colorful ribbons Truly a rainbow, simply divine Hot buns, check out my hot buns True, there are not buns equal to mineOh, quelle belle matinee Oh, quelle belle journeeAh, I see you're admiring my buns, child I can't afford one, sir Then have one on me For no one goes hungry in Belleville! Cor! Thank you, sir!Another day in paradise In our town so picturesque Every other seems grotesque Forgive us if we brag a bit Folks from Paris and Berlin All are begging to get inFor forty-nine amazing years We've won the Most Attractive Town And international renownOur citizens are works of art Everyone a chiseled god With a ripped and rockin' bodThis burg's been handed every accolade We've charm no other village offers We're so dependent on the tourist trade To fill our cupboards and our coffersFor forty-nine amazing years There's no town that can compete Frankly, if they could we'd cheat Our livelihood depends on it Travelers bless us with their feet They don't come then we don't eatWishing on a wishing well A secret wish I shall not tell Though my little bird has overheard It will not breathe a word Longing for a prince who's kind and sweet To chimney sweep me off my feet Tell me little friend, and be discreet When will he— Ow! Oh the little bastard bit meWe keep our dirty laundry out of sight The town of Belleville is perfection There's not a villager with cellulite There's not one blotch on one complexionFor forty-nine amazing years We've won the Most Attractive Town And international renown The fiftieth is in the bag And if we don't win it's plain Belleville's going down the drainWe hail our queen, her majesty Her agelessness, her timelessness Her effervescence, her incandescenceHello, my darling peasants And His Royal Highness, Prince Sebastian HiyaWhat a disappointment is this prince Look at him, my heart can't help but wince He's not the type on which girls set their sights Well, maybe if she squints and dims the lightsOnce we had the hottest prince of all Then he disappeared, he went AWOL Now his nerdy brother must step in How I really wish he had a chinPrince Charming was a major hunk Truly lived up to his name Put the current prince to shame His lips could launch a thousand ships And those sparkling teeth and eyes Don't forget those strapping thighsPrince Charming was engaged and soon to wed Went to slay a dragon, now he's dead Leaving his fiancé drenched in tears And our pretty city in arrearsI've built this tribute to my dear late son A statue of my boy in action This world class masterpiece at last is done Should be a lucrative attractionFor forty-nine amazing years Though it's unlike us to boast Every other town is toast The fiftieth is in the bagThough our deficit is high With more upkeep than Versailles We mourn our prince, Prince Charming All his manliness, his flawlessness His yumminess, his gorgeousness His mightiness, Prince CharmingWomen, avert your eyes The horror! Is it a cock? I'm going to be sickThis is a disgrace! To deface Prince Charming's memorial statue with such an enormous phallus! I will not be awarding Belleville the prize
