lyrics

Here are the translated lyrics....

Song Title: Henri the Amorous Lorry Driver

It was on the road to Brittany that I saw a vision
Of a man with facial hair that didn’t raise suspicion
You looked like such a man’s man
A big man at the wheel I didn’t know you had a plan

Were you impressed by the size of my thumb?
That I stuck out by the road, oh I was so young
With your beard and manly looks, I had no reason to be afraid
But sometimes looks can be deceptive

So you thought it was okay to stop
Jump out for a wee by the roadside I didn’t think
That you would beckon me out to look at the thing in your hand.. what did you think I would do

Chorus:
Oh Henri, Henri please let me go
I don’t wanna touch your penis today
Oh Henri you seem like a reasonable, if somewhat troubled man
So I just said ‘Shall we go?’ and we carried on….

Although there was a rather strange atmosphere…

Oh Henri, Henri It’s not a problem that you are bisexual or gay
I do hope that you come to terms with your sexuality,
but I don’t think this is the way it is done
Taking advantage of young English boys a long way from home
Is not the way to come out if you’re a sexually frustrated gay lorry driving man

Oh Henri, Henri thanks for dropping me on the right road
I’m sorry that I wasn’t interested in touching your penis today
Oh Henri you seem like a reasonable, if somewhat troubled man
So I just said ‘Shall we go?’ and we carried on

Although I did spend the rest of the journey shitting myself thinking he was going to kill me

But I’m glad this story doesn’t have a dark twisted murderous ending, my friend

I just said goodbye to a red faced French lorry driver called Henri
