  Bbm6     Cm6    C#m6    Cm6   Bbm6  Cm6  C#m6  Cm6  
I won’t finish my life in Timbuktu__
Bbm6      Cm6      Abm6     Ebm6    C#m6     Cm6
cheeks so tight my lips are turning blue
    Bbm6          Bm6    Bbm6        Bm6 
I'd like to be wrinkly,   utterly wrinkly
 Bbm6          F#m6              Bbm6  Cm6  C#m6  Cm6 - Bbm6  Cm6  C#m6  Cm6
wrinkly like a Triplet from Belleville


[Verse 2]
Don’t want to end my days in Acapul - co 
stiff as a board dancing tango-tango
I'd love to be twisted, utterly twisted
twisted like a Triplet from Belleville


[Chorus]
 Bbm6 
Swinging Belleville rendez-vous
marathon dancing doop dee doop
vaudou Cancan balais taboo
au Belleville swinging rendez-vous


[Verse 3]
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

[Verse 4]
I don’t want to end my life in Honolu__- lu
singing like a bird in an ormolu
I want to be as rough, every bit as rough
rough as a Triplet from Belleville


[Chorus]
Swinging Belleville rendez-vous
marathon dancing doop dee doop
vaudou Cancan balais taboo
au Belleville swinging rendez-vous

[Verse 5]
Don’t mind ending my life in Katmandu__
singing with a sitar and a guru
but I’d prefer to be   utterly flying
swinging with the Triplets from Belleville

[Chorus]
Swinging Belleville rendez-vous
marathon dancing doop dee doop
vaudou Cancan balais taboo
au Belleville swinging rendez-vous
