When in Rome...




Part of the series's appeal is their well written dialogues, rich characters, and subtlety in their interactions...



Or so I have been told.

Sometimes, viewers almost forget to lie...



No that there is anything wrong with that, of course.



But, if it isn't too bold of me to ask...

Why not just go straight to the real thing, then?



"Well written dialogues, rich characters, and subtlety in their interactions" notwithstanding, of course.

Five hundred billion little Martians...




And I and I and I



And I and I and I
Jacques Dutronc (1966)

Seven hundred million Chinese
and I and I and I
With my life, my little home
My headache, my liver pain
I think of it and then I forget it
That's life, that's life

Eighty million Indonesians
and I and I and I
With my car and my dog
His dog food when he is barking
I think of it and then I forget it
That's life, that's life

Three or four hundred million Black people
and I and I and I
who goes to the solarium
to the sauna to lose weight
I think of it and then I forget it
That's life, that's life

Three hundred million Soviets
and I and I and I
with my habits and my tics
in my little goose feather bed
I think of it and then I forget it
That's life, that's life

Fifty million imperfect people
and I and I and I
watching Catherine Langeais
on television at home
I think of it and then I forget it
That's life, that's life

Nine hundred million bums
and I and I and I
with my vegetarian diet
and all the whiskey I am boozing
I think of it and then I forget it
That's life, that's life

Five hundred million South Americans
and I and I and I
I am all nude in my bath
with a girl who is cleaning me
I think of it and then I forget it
That's life, that's life

Fifty million Vietnamese
and I and I and I
on Sundays on the rabbit hunt
with my rifle, I am the king
I think of it and then I forget it
That's life, that's life

Five hundred billion little Martians
and I and I and I
like a Parisian fool
I wait for my paycheck at the end of the month
I think of it and then I forget it
That's life, that's life

I think of it and then I forget it
That's life, that's life
