Summertime


Summertime, and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high
Your daddys rich and your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby, don't you cry

HST

Asked a girl what she wanted to be
She said baby, can't you see
I wanna be famous, a star on the screen
But you can do something in between



I told a girl I can start right away
And she said listen babe I got something to say
I got no car and it's breaking my heart
But I've found a driver and that's a start

Babe alone in Babylone



Babe alone in Babylone
noyée sous les flots
de Pontiacs
de Cadillacs
de Bentley à L.A.
de Rolls Royce et de Buicks

...Babe alone in Babylone
noyée sous les flots
de Malibu
petite star inconnue
tu n'as vu que l'etoile
de la police fédérale

Воспоминание о Флоренции

(Souvenir de Florence, Tchaïkovski)

Ca fait quelques jours qu'il fait très froid. Moi j'ai un peu envie d'été...

Come and Go



Vi : When did we three last meet?
Ru : Let us not speak. Silence. Exit Vi right. Silence
Flo : Ru.
Ru : Yes.
Flo : What do you think of Vi?
Ru : I see little change. Flo moves to centre seat, whispers in Ru's ear. Appalled. Oh! They look at each other. Flo puts her finger to her lips. Does she not realize?
Flo : God grant not. Enter Vi. Flo and Ru turn back front, resume pose. Vi sits right. Silence. Just sit together as we used to, in the playground at Miss Wade's.
Ru : On the log. Silence. Exit Flo left. Silence. Vi.
Vi : Yes.
Ru : How do you find Flo?
Vi : She seems much the same. Ru moves to centre seat, whispers in Vi's ear. Appalled. Oh! They look at each other. Ru puts her finger to her lips. Has she not been told?
Ru : God forbid. Enter Flo. Ru and Vi turn back front, resume pose. Flo sits left. Holding hands... that way.
Flo : Dreaming of... love. Silence. Exit Ru right. Silence.
Vi : Flo.
Flo : Yes.
Vi : How do you think Ru is looking?
Flo : One sees little in this light. Vi moves centre seat, whispers in Flo's ear. Appalled. Oh! They look at each other. Vi puts her finger to her lips. Does she not know?
Vi : Please God not. Enter Ru. Vi and Flo turn back front, resume pose. Ru sits right. Silence. May we not speak of the old days? Silence. Of what came after? Silence. Shall we hold hands in the old way?
