paroles de chanson The Wives Are In Connecticut - Carly Simon

He figures out a restaurant
Where they won′t be recognized
He can always slip the maitre'd a ten
Get a private little table and try her on for size
Make a plan of where to do it when
He′s so sly, he's in love with his lies

And the wives, the wives are in Connecticut
The wives, the wives are in Connecticut
Trying to forget it that they really do regret it
That they moved up to Connecticut
That they moved up to Connecticut

The first year I was faithful
He confesses to the girl
Admitting to the least of his sins
His candour so disarming in this wicked city world
She falls for it and once again he wins
He's so sly, he′s in love with his lies

And the wives, the wives are in Connecticut
The wives, the wives are in Connecticut
Trying to forget it that they really do regret it
That they moved up to Connecticut
That they moved up to Connecticut
That they moved up to Connecticut

The five flight walk up
Can he make it?
He keeps promising to go back to the gym
Oh, he thinks about his wife
So passionate last night
Was she really feeling it for him?

Or was it junior′s teacher?
Or the carpenter who put up the shelves?
Or the mechanic who fixed the wagon?
Or the gardener who dug the well?
The Italian riding instructor?
Or the man on the carousel? (Man on the carousel)

Or the out of work actor in Westport? (Man on the carousel)
Or the surgeon who cured the ills? (Man on the carousel)
Or the Yalie from New Haven? (Man on the carousel)
Or the farmer in the Dell? (Man on the carousel)

Oh, the wives, the wives are in Connecticut
The wives, the wives are in Connecticut
Trying to forget it that they really do regret it
That they moved up to Connecticut
That they moved up to Connecticut
That they moved up to Connecticut
That they moved up to Connecticut

How 'bout the lifeguard at the yacht club?
Or the hairdresser from New London?
Or the tennis pro from Fairfield?
The Fuller Brush man from Bristol?
Or the fisherman from Mystic?
Or the novelist from New Canan?
The usher at the movie theater?
The architect from Guilford?

Or the man on the carousel? (Man on the carousel)
Or the man on the carousel? (Man on the carousel)
The man on the carousel? (Man on the carousel)
The man on the carousel? (Man on the carousel)
