Rose Robert Lyrics
Rose Robert, I'd like to welcome you to our affair
We'll write a lovely little story, just you and I
As time goes by me and my Rose Robert
People stare when we walk arm in arm along the thoroughfare
The gentlemen don't know whether to bow their heads
Or tip their hats instead at me and Rose Robert
All of our days move so slow since we stopped
And let the world go on without us
We haven't got a care, me and Rose Robert
You're delightful, mon chéri, it's so lovely
When we wear each others clothes
You draw on your mustache while I powder my nose
Josephine and Fanny don't compare to my Rose Robert
Rose Robert, together we make quite a remarkable pair
It doesn't seem strange somehow that we never speak
We just gurgle and squeak, me and my Rose Robert
Few will dare to offer any pleasantries or see how we fare
I guess they assume that we have lost our wits
But we're just a couple of misfits, me and my Rose Robert Rose Robert, hot chocolate éclair
We'll write a lovely little story, just you and I
As time goes by me and my Rose Robert
People stare when we walk arm in arm along the thoroughfare
The gentlemen don't know whether to bow their heads
Or tip their hats instead at me and Rose Robert
All of our days move so slow since we stopped
And let the world go on without us
We haven't got a care, me and Rose Robert
You're delightful, mon chéri, it's so lovely
When we wear each others clothes
You draw on your mustache while I powder my nose
Josephine and Fanny don't compare to my Rose Robert
Rose Robert, together we make quite a remarkable pair
It doesn't seem strange somehow that we never speak
We just gurgle and squeak, me and my Rose Robert
Few will dare to offer any pleasantries or see how we fare
I guess they assume that we have lost our wits
But we're just a couple of misfits, me and my Rose Robert Rose Robert, hot chocolate éclair
One of my favorites off of Coquelicot. I'm not sure how it ties into the story that the album loosely follows. I have an idea, but I'm not positive...
Anyway. Very catchy little song.
I love this idea of a totally weird but totally perfect for each other couple. The guy dressing up as a turn of the century girl and the girl dressing up as a turn of the century guy and them just going out for strolls... and just gurgling and squeeking.
