:44:01
What a crush.
Such a mad scramble.

:44:04
l thought that l'd never
be here on time.

:44:05
Charly's painting is hanging
there in the large drawing room.

:44:08
Yes, his total art!
:44:10
Well, there was such a crowd
that l got jammed in.

:44:12
You speak slang now?
:44:14
lt's not slang. The way
Paris is going these days,

:44:18
l'm afraid we're
all in the same boat!

:44:21
On the avenue
:44:22
l was speeding, in a stew
:44:25
The cop on the plot
Tinpot despot

:44:26
Fined me on the spot
:44:28
On the street so wide
Traffic flowed from every side

:44:31
Like an assault
Not through my fault

:44:33
Grinding to a halt!
:44:34
And so l found myself jammed in
:44:38
The cop took it all right
on the chin

:44:41
And despite his rank
:44:43
My words were too frank
:44:45
He gave a grin
Then took me in

:44:46
l spent the night in the tank
:44:48
And so l found myself jammed in
:44:51
And my wife,
her poor mind in a spin

:44:55
ln her stress
Called the press

:44:56
And told them out of her wits
:44:58
My husband's been
chopped to tiny bits

:45:02
Since not so long ago
Paris has changed so

:45:05
All her best sights
Full of Levites

:45:07
And gruff Muscovites
:45:09
Or with Spaniards
Camping out on the boulevards

:45:12
Worse than Venice
Ancient Memphis

:45:14
But it's not Paris!
:45:15
And so we find ourselves
jammed in

:45:18
By people their fortune
here to win

:45:22
ln the bars
You've Magyars

:45:23
With cashiers
From Algiers

:45:25
From Vadodara
Or from Ankara

:45:27
We'll end up with cholera
:45:29
And so we find ourselves
jammed in

:45:32
Sweep them out
before they settle in

:45:35
They show gall
:45:36
Take it all
While we sit by and just cry

:45:39
Who'll get us out
of the jam we're in?

:45:43
A man must never let himself
get jammed in!

:45:47
What were you saying
about me this time?

:45:48
My poor little Gilberte.
You're so nervous.

:45:50
ls Thomson here yet?
:45:52
l thought you'd ask me that.
:45:55
Yes, l just saw him
at the buffet, where else?

:45:58
Excellent. Excuse me,
l need to have a word with him.
