Cendrillon de Chinatown

Faut pas traîner

Le bouge où ton père se came

C'est du passé

Car la Chine opaline

De son vieux cinéma parlant

M arie-Jeanne

Opiomane

L'ont endormie pour longtemps...

Longtemps

Tu te fends d'une robe longue

Sur le côté

Mais le monde de Suzie Wong

Il est râpé

Car la belle

Ô belle

De ce vieux cinéma dormant

L'Amérique

Boulimique

L'a engloutie pour longtemps...

Longtemps

Au milieu des Hills et de Beverly

Dans un ciné désert

Une chinoise de quinze ans vend du pop-corn

Dans un kimono vert...

Elle se voit déjà

Greta

Cendrillon de Chinatown

Et la Chine héroïne

Se perd derrière ses paravents

Je me mine

Je m'abîme

Mes rêves

N'en ont plus pour longtemps...

Longtemps

Pourtant...
