Everybody Was In The French Resistance... Now! Creeque Allies
When the Nazis marched on Paris
The French were quite embarrassed
I think you know what I mean
So the angry got together
To circulate a letter
To bring down the Vichy regime
A few months later
An underground paper
Called Defense de la France
Had ten thousand circulation
All across the nation
To spread their intelligence
You have to be of strong body and mind
Ready to leave your friends behind
Everybody was in the French resistance now
Pierre-Georges Fabien
At the metro station
Decided there was no going back
He was determined
Assassinated a German
The first French resistance attack
Joseph Epstein
And his gang of fifteen
Oh, man, they really knew where it was at
Policemen can't be trusted
Called them maladjusted
But they were just taking France back
You have to be of strong body and mind
Ready to leave your friends behind
Everybody was in the French resistance now
The Nazi occupation
Was an awkward situation
Still, in 1942
Jean Bruller
Wrote Le Silence de la Mer
That told you exactly what to do
Jean Moulin
Said "Hey, guys, come on"
And united all the resistance groups
And in 1943
Civilians maquis
Fought alongside Allied troops
You have to be of sound body and mind
Ready to leave your friends behind
Everybody was in the French resistance now
The Free Frenches
Were waiting in the trenches
Listening to their radios
For coded information
From the Allied nations
Giving them the word to go
"The carrots are cooked"
Les carottes sont cuites
"The dice have been thrown"
Les dés sont jetés
"The carrots are cooked"
Les carottes sont cuites
"The dice have been thrown"
Les dés sont jetés
You have to be of strong body and mind
Ready to leave your friends behind
Everybody was in the French resistance
Everybody was in the French resistance
Everybody was in the French resistance now
