Lyrics

Manchester England, England
Au bout de l’Atlantique
Je suis un génie, génie
Et je crois en Dieu
Et je crois que Dieu
En Claude a foi
Et Claude, c’est moi
Claude Hooper Bukowski trouve que c’est génial
De faire son cinéma
En jouant les Fellini, les Antonioni,
Les Godard, les Truffaut, les Roman Polanski
Ils sont tous dans la poche de Claude Hooper Bukowski
Maintenant que je suis parti
C’est Fellini-ni la vie
Parler de quoi ou de qui?
Ça va vraiment de mal en pis

Lyrics translation

Manchester England, England
At the end of the Atlantic
I'm a genius, genius
And I believe in God
And I believe that God
En Claude has faith
And Claude, It's me.
Claude Hooper Bukowski thinks it's great
To make his cinema
Playing the Fellini, the Antonioni,
The Godards, the Truffaut, the Roman Polanski
They're all in Claude Hooper Bukowski's pocket
Now that I'm gone
It's Fellini-ni life
Talk about what or who?
It's really going from bad to worse.
