Garance – yes just like the flower
I've got a lonely message for you
The marionette's in the ballroom laughing
Baptiste the clown
Up in the gods now they're laughing
Garance has a heart like a vase
The man has fingers like flowers blooming
BBptiste the clown
Humming this tune that I just heard
A melody I barely know
A song for the children of paradise
Baptiste the clown
Asks himself who am I
Ah – don't sing only half the song
Ah – can't you hear us sing along
Yawning words waiting
For the moon to come closer
How can he kill without mercy
Just to dress up like a king
Under the makeup his face is flooding
Baptiste the clown
Says take me home
Suffering's not such a blessing
You're everyone and nobody now
The sleepwalker's up on the rooftop waltzing
Baptiste the clown
Asks himself who am I
