[Intro — Accordion solo, Drums (march), Choir]
Accordion playful intro riff
Choir shouts: «Qui est-elle? Qui est-elle?»
⸻
[Verse 1 — Accordion + Bass + Light Drums]
She walked into the town like a hurricane,
Files disappeared from the courthouse again,
The choir won’t sing, the priest lost his bell,
The cops are confused — “arrest her?” — oh well!
⸻
[Verse 2 — Accordion + Bass + Guitar + Drums, Choir accents]
La Préfecture’s frozen, they dropped all the plans,
The Prosecutor’s crying, just wringing his hands,
Every street corner, you hear people yell:
“Qui est-elle? Qui est-elle? She’s laughing like hell!” [Choir]
⸻
[Chorus 1 — Full band: Accordion + Guitar + Bass + Drums, Choir backing]
Но, да, я знаю, это ты,
Женщина моей мечты,
Ты путаешь следы,
Et voilà — c’est la vie!
⸻
[Verse 3 — Accordion + Bass only, Drums enter later]
She juggled the laws like a circus show,
Confused all the judges — they still don’t know,
The mayor resigned with a note that read:
“She wins every battle — I’ll stay in bed.”
⸻
[Bridge — Accordion lead, Drums rolling, Choir dramatic]
Oh Paris is trembling, the gendarmes all hide,
The Prefect is dancing, the priest can’t decide,
The world is in chaos, the papers all wail:
“Qui est-elle? Qui est-elle? Is this just a cabaret tale?” [Choir]
⸻
[Chorus 2 — Full band: Accordion + Guitar + Bass + Drums, Choir backing]
Но, да, я знаю, это ты,
Женщина моей мечты,
Ты путаешь следы,
Et voilà — c’est la vie!
⸻
[Finale — Accordion solo + Full band crescendo + Choir]
And in the end, she just smiled, took her crown,
Turned every courtroom upside down,
She rose from the gameboard, clear and proud:
“King me, baby — I’m the Queen now!”
[Choir shouting:] «Qui est-elle?!»
[Accordion final chord flourish]
