Triste

He

as
he
chewed
a
bar
of
soap

l'intérêt
Polishing
the
windows
with
worn-out
ladies
blouses.
Polissant

He

nicks
to
save
his
Sunday
trousers

getting
madder,
Maintenant,

her
husband
makes
her
sadder.
Déchirant
ses
bas
de
soie,
son
mari
la
rend
plus
triste.
All

long
he
wants
to
keep
on
running
up
the
ladder
Toute
la
journée,
il
veut
continuer
à
courir
sur
l'échelle
'Cos

his
eyesight
tested,
a
most
important
matter.
Il
a
fait
tester
sa
vue,
une
affaire
très
importante.
Through
a
bathroom

a
lady
he
peeps
at
her
À
travers
une
fenêtre
de
salle
de
bain,
il
regarde
une

better
but
