I won't finish my life in Timbuktu
Cheeks so tight my lips are turning blue
I'd like to be wrinkley
Utterly wrinkley
Wrinkley like a Triplet from Belleville
Don't want to wind my days in Acapulco
Stiff as a board dancing tango-tango
I'd love to be twisted
Utterly twisted
Twisted like a Triplet from Belleville
(Come on Girls!)

Refrain:
Swinging Belleville rendez-vous
Marathon dancing doop dee doop
Vaudou Cancan balais taboo
Au Belleville swinging rendez-vous

I won't be an old man in Singapore
Playing scrabble and eating petits-fours
I want to be wicked,
Utterly wicked,
Wicked like the Triplets from Belleville

I don't want to end my life in Honolulu
Singing like a bird in an ormolu
I want to be as rough
Every bit as rough
Rough, rough as a Triplet from Belleville

Refrain

I won't finish my days in Miami Beach
Sweating my heart stalking like an old b____
I'd like to be flying (Hop!)
Utterly flying (Hop! Hop!)
Flying like a Triplet from Belleville

Don't mind ending my life in Katmandu
Signing with a sitar and a guru
But I'd prefer to be
Much prefer to be
Swinging with the Triplets from Belleville
(Come on Girls!)
