Parlez-Vous Francais


I didn't know myself til I was staring down at the empty bottle
and I couldn't find my soul til I was looking down the barrel of an M-16 rifle
and I am wearing shoes but they ain't the shoes I wore in France
I got a girlfriend but she ain't a girl from France

je parle pas Francais/ je parle pas Francais
parlez-vous Anglais/ parce que je parle pas Francais

I was born a man but sure as hell not a man of France
I just wanna be me but I can't be me in France
all the people that I see they're just a bunch of worker ants
I'm thinking 'bout taking some pills and taking a trip back to france
I'

je parle pas Francais/ je parle pas Francais
parlez-vous Anglais/ parce que je parle pas Francais

do you understand just what it is that I'm trying to say
you're responding black and white but I'm trying to describe gray
your eyes are fixed on mine but they're looking far away
that's alright it's all my fault because je parle pas Francais

je parle pas Francais/ je parle pas Francais
parlez-vous Anglais/ parlez-vous Anglais
