Lament for Brigitte Bardot

CHORUS
We lost Brigitte Bardot
Oh no! Oh no!
Now she can talk to Judy Dench
(Of course she can’t: she’s French!)

VERSE 1
You stayed at home 
and learned to dance
when Germany invaded France.
You grew up with 
a curvy corps
and quickly learned
what it was for.

BRIDGE
Sartre famous for his jokes,
Piaf sang a song or two:
Picasso stunned us with his strokes,
and you we’d simply like to screw.

VERSE 2
When the Germans
had to leave,
that’s when God
created Eve!
Lovely parts,
lovely pout,
and not afraid
to get them out!

She was no dumb blonde that’s for sure. She was very beautiful and very French. A true icon.

Yes, but celebrities can expect to have their leg pulled.

Humorous one for Brigitte Bardot. I can't picture her in my mind right now but I imagine she looked like Monroe, which rhymes with Bardot!

True in both cases - she looked like, and rhymed with, Norma Jean. Thank you, Andrea.
