A treasure (life and death of the inspector Blumstein and his assistant mister Parker) Waaaaahhhhh I am the midnight Queen, let’s go in that big adventure let’s go, let’s go, let’s go, let’s go Wahhhhhhhh We’ll find a treasure in this garden, I can swear it We don’t need a map, we don’t need to know where to go Let’s make holes and holes and holes, big holes We'll find, a treasure in this garden mister Parker Maybe under the tree mister Marker! Let’s cut that tree down mister Snooper No! We’ll cut that tree mister Father! We’ll cut every tree, if I need to! Wahhhhhhhh Could it be under the garden hut? Well I know It’s yours Pateker and I’m sorry But we don’t have the choice Justice want this treasure for Wednesday Let’s ruin this old shanty Let’s ruin this old shanty I always found that dump unpleasant to see now let’s dig in (dig in!) let’s dig in (dig in!) let’s dig in (dig in!) let’s dig in (dig in!) now There is no grass anymore and we didn’t found a core Most of you would give up now! but me... I’m in love, I’m in love I’m in love with you treasure I’m in love, I’m in love I’m in love and I’ll find you wherever you are Wherever you are Baby Wherever you go Honey Wherever you sleep Sweety Whatever you do, I find you, I find you You see Flipper, I know exactly how to hide a treasure and I must say unfortunately for you, I think you know it too You have the treasure Gamer, I know it and from the beginning I knew it. You know I never fail Palmer

You are gardening with us Now we’re gardening with love I want to garden all alone with all alone with alone with you But we’re gardening in a group And they’ll garden until night I ask the boss if we could work tonight with the daisies in teams of two He says why not you’ll go with Pete and for the roses Stanley‘ll go with Sue Bees come back, since you are here Trees smell good in the valley I want to garden all alone with all alone with alone with you The garden is like a dream Every gardener should scream My heart is so warm, I could light a huge fire and burn all the dead leaves I want to scream loud enough for plants to hear that I’m in love with you I scream the loudest I can do (Hey gardener! Are you in love ?) Yes I am, yes I am I want to garden forever yes forever yes forever with you Your Pollen will give a frame For our work to get a name I think it’s only possible if you decide to come gardening with me, gardening with me I am the best for begonia, we could become the gardeners of the year Life is beautiful in earth I thought I only loved flowers! I will garden yes much faster yes much faster yes much faster for you Now my rake is like a snake They call me “golden shovel” We’ll have our garden, you like orchids we’ll plant kiwis and cook daisies for breakfast We’ll sing a song for plants to come and cry a tear for trees to live and fruit will all be free We’ll make coffee with lilac tree and drink lily with bumble bee and be a blueberry You’ll make honey with the pansy you’ll be my bee, my lovely flea, you’ll fly my little sky

Papillon! Mais vous chantez! Oh Papillon! vous chantez! J’en ai la chair de poule! Quelle expressivité La nature, Chante avec vous! Chante avec vous Chante! Oh chante! Normalement ça n’arrive que dans les contes. Et si notre vie n’était qu’un conte! Papillon! Mais vous chantez! Ne vaudrait-il pas mieux vous prémunir contre la grippe?

Poisson rouge, tu ères dans la terre maintenant Il est temps de retourner en mer Mais la mer est si loin, tu ne vas pas bien vite Que fais tu dans notre jardin ? Ouste, Ouste Mais qu’attends tu la pluie ? Elle ne tombera point. Cherche dont plutôt ton eau intérieure Quand je bois un verre d’eau et ressens la pluie A l’intérieur de mon corps Toi tu bébète et fais pâle figure Mon ami couvres-toi tu refroidis si vite…. Venez tous ici, regarder cette joie, C’est l’ami du soleil Il sèche a vue d’œil, le petit gringo Soulignons son courage Ne sommes nous point tous un peu comme ce vilain Et non pas du tout Tu as choisis ta voix et j’ai choisi la mienne Advienne que pourra!

Damned! Un oiseau mort (life and death of the inspector Blumstein and his assistant mister Parker) The bird is dead The bird is dead Oh the bird is dead For a long time, I couldn’t hear no coui coui anymore And now that I see him lying cold on the grass The verdict is clear, mister Parker That bird is dead Damned, Damned, Damned, Oh Damned I know who did that, but I just can’t remember I wrote it here, can you read it mister Pakers? I haven’t my monocle You can’t be the murderer mister Pacekers! You stayed with us day and night You didn’t kill the bird mister Barber, did you? Mister Paper did you see that bird before he died? In that case there is no doubt mister Popers You are the murderer mister Flowers You have the right to stay silent and call the inspector me mister Painter From the beginning, I knew it Even if Parker was my old assistant I always realised he was never himself when he was in a garden And this, unfortunately happens very often, with many people Even with people like you I don’t mind saying this, I don’t have any good feeling with you anyway

Courons l’après midi dans l’herbe Cherchons les sentiers Ils courent les hommes nus pieds Ils portent les petits souliers en main Alors heureuses ? Aux dames de courir maintenant Il va falloir faire mieux La première arrivée au buisson Portera la couronne de carton C’est l’heure des petites rondes exquises Et on tourne, tourbillonons Les femmes conduisent la ronde Et les hommes s’inclinent humblement Savourons On prend de la vitesse Et puis on ralenti Pour ne point sur le lilas tomber Ou se fracasser crâne contre une pomme de pin Ode, ode à la fantaisie Tournoyons la pelouse. Festoyons Mille surprises nous attendent, attendons Ode ode à déculpabilisation C’est l’heure de la partie de crocket Le perdant sera châtié. Ferdinand, vous perdîmes Châtions! Châtions! Lançons lui graviers Nos graviers lançons Sur tête, nos ordures vidons Entourons de papier de toilette le vilain Dessinons lui une moustache. Dessinons Les oreilles de Mickey, voilà bonne idée Plaçons sur ça tête les Une queue de chien. La queue lui collons D’amusantes lunettes sur ses yeux plaçons. Plaçons Autour de lui dansons, comme les indiens Dîtes-moi Geneviève, pour accompagner cette danse, ne pourriez de votre roseau nous jouer ? Charles ! Oui madame. Tirez ces oreilles, bleu qu’elle deviendront. Partageons. Le miroir amener. Pour qu’il s’appercevisse Plaisantons, plaisantons Et les coups de cannes sur le gredin donnons Canaillons, canaillons
