Harder to Hide
C'est ta chanson
Dear Listener,
Each lyrics that you find here are the work of Chico Chica. We compose ourselves all our songs. Here are a few that we hope will please you.
Chico Chica.
Quand j’étais petite fille à l’école
Tu étais le plus gentil de mes copains
On a fait des aventures à la compagne
On s’est chasses tout autour
Mais tu n’es plus ici encore
Si je chante ce chanson
C’est pour toi mon garçon
C’est pour passer le temps
Le temps quand tu me manques
C’est pour toi mon garçon.
Maintenant que je suis grande c’est vrai
Que je pense de plus en plus de ce temps la
Et tu m’avais dit que tu voudrais revenir pour moi
Quand tu serais plus grand,
J’avais toute raison de te croire.
Si je chante ce chanson
C’est pour toi mon garçcon
C’est pour passer le temps
Le temps quand tu me manques
C’est pour toi mon garçon.

You may have noticed a change
You hear it in the happy tone in my voice
Now it's so easy to laugh and smile
I just want to sing and rejoice
My past is a wilderness plain
With scenes of sorrow and a pain-weary pride
A mask perfected goes undetected
But love is much harder to hide
Love is much harder to hide
I put all my feelings on ice
And carried on with my beautiful smile
Poise and composure would pull ne through
Along with deceit and denial.
But now there's a spring in my heart
I wipe away the tears I secretly cried I
'm revealing what I was concealing
Coz love is much harder to hide Love is much harder to hide

The memory of the magic kiss
He left in my hair
Has swept away the pain in my mind.
What once was looming large and dark
And everywhere
Is now in a place that I've left far behind.
Listen to my beating heart Hear loud hear it clear
Through the darkest night
I’ll wait for the dawn to appear.
The complications of my life
Kept haunting my sleep;
It's meant to be the best place to hide.
I wonder if there's anything
So peaceful or deep
As silence soon filled by our hearts side by side.
Listen to my beating heart Hear loud hear it clear
Through the darkest night
I’ll wait for the dawn to appear.

Why can't we leave it all behind?
Let's think of how we'll fill the hours.
We'll go for all the healthy options
A life of beneficial salads and flowers
There's something I saw the other night (I watched it with you, remember?)
A man and his wife were baking bread
(We'll have to find out how that's done)
Their working week was in computers
But now they've gone for something fluffy instead.
Dreaming and planning their lunch
With a buzz in the air
Off set their footprints with candles
They bought at the fair.
They seem so much happier than us
(And she seemed so much prettier than me)
Perhaps we should follow where they've led (Would that be Italy or France?)
Let's sell the DVD collection
And go for something fluffy instead.
Dreaming and planning our lunch
With a buzz in the air
Off set our footprints with candles
We bought at the fair.
Let's make a list of things to do
(I'll go and fetch a pen and paper)
Include all those books we've never read (You must remind me what they are)
And try to get it all completed
Before the day when you and I end up dead
When life becomes so hard and crunchy
It's time to go for something fluffy instead.

The chair on which he sat
Has taken on a life of its own.
The warmth, the ghost, the scent
The echo of a soft beguiling tone,
The very air he breathed
Have made this room a rare enchanted place
It won't be long when I see this room lit up by his face.
To think it's been a week
Since he turned this weary life around
He came at just the point
Before this sorry ship would run aground.
But now the days ahead
Are more than just a dizzy dream's delight
They'll be my starry destiny
Path of a fantasy flight.
In the past I never understood
Why hearts would not function as they should
I was like a car that failed to start
His key now turns the engine of my heart.
This room may well appear
Exactly as it did a week ago
But every other sense
Detects a golden aura and a glow
My joy is everywhere
As long as he's around and in my sight
This is my starry destiny
Path of a fantasy flight.

Le rideau de la soirée s'ouvre
Le brouillard de la nuit me couvre. Oh pense a moi
Pense a moi.
Les cris qui me faisaient si peur
Sont plus forts que mes cris de coeur. Oh pense à moi
Pense à moi.
Maintenant la nuit me rend si froid Oh pense à moi
Pense à moi.
Quand l'hirondelle vient me donne
Un coup d'amour, un air si bon,
Oh pense à moi
Pense à moi.
C'est l'heure je veux me coucherais
Avec nos rêves, nos voeux secrets.
Oh pense à moi
Pense à moi.
Je te supplie un mille de fois
Oh pense à moi
Pense à moi.
Voit les étoiles qui se paraissent,
Ces témoins doux de nos caresses.
Oh pense à moi
Pense à moi.
Je te promet avant dormir
Je vais répondre à tes désirs,
Oh pense à moi
Pense à moi.
A l'avenir comme autrefois
Oh pense à moi
Pense à moi
Pense à moi.

Who are we to interfere
In other peoples' wars?
Coz things are not as they appear So let's not shed a tear
On some forgotten cause.
Who is good and who's is bad?
It's really hard to say
And who's this guy they call Assad? I tell you I'm so glad
It's all so far away.
And then I saw her muddy hands
I wondered where they could have been
The jagged gestures seem to say:
'You won't believe what I have seen'.
In that forsaken desert sand
I had to draw a line
It's more than I can understand.
What happens in that land
Is no concern of mine.
And then I saw his piercing eyes
On the television screen
The silence shouted loud and clear:
'You won't believe what I have seen'.
But then I saw the horror on his face
I wasn't sure what it could mean
And then I heard those painful shaking words: 'You won't believe what I have seen'.

There's a fish
Swimming around a little lake
And she's beginning to feel the strain.
Round and round she looks for love
But everyone she meets
Has lacked a certain warmth.
Her blood is cold
And so is her environment
And she won't stop her quest for love.
The tide has turned
She dreams of eggs
But not to eat of course,
She wants to get them laid.
As she looks around
Hunger takes a hold
It dominates her mind
A fishy kind of mindset.
She smells a worm
Grabs it and takes a bite
But something sharp has stuck inside her mouth.
She's pulled up fast and high
Into an unfamiliar world
So warm and strange and dry.

Hay un lugar muy lejos de aqui,
Plateados los rios que cayen en el mar Isla dorada en un mar de cristal,
Ciel azul y celestial, pero solo en mi sonar. Un dia el viento calido me llevara,
Junto con la aves y la brisa otonal,
A mi querida isla sonada
Descancare bajo la sombra,
Me gozare con la brisa, que sopla del mar Flotando en el agua, veo mis deseos,
El sol rojizo y caliente, pero solo en mi sonar. Un dia el viento calido me llevara,
Junto con la aves y la brisa otonal,
A mi querida isla sonada
Isla sonada, linda y dorada,
Stoy esperando ese dia mi llegada Isla sonada, la isla de mis suenos

Morning brings a bird
On the garden lawn
Where a danger lurks within
He's unaware that yards away
A pair of eyes - a big surprise
A happy cat starts her day.
As the morning wind
Rushes through the air
Instinct starts to rule her will
Thoughts go through her mind
So cruel and so unkind
Coz cats go out to kill.
The bird will never flap his wings
We'll never hear the song he sings
We'll never see the life he lived before.
This time he never got to flee
Or occupy his favourite tree
He's lying dead upon the kitchen floor.
Perhaps I should explain
That life and circle thing
But that won't wash away your tears
It's hard for me to tell a child
This was done - just for fun
Not like it is in the wild.
Watch her walk around
Proud and satisfied
Now that she had her thrill
Don't get too upset about a callous pet
Coz cats go out to kill.
E gato

Singing makes you happy and if you're in any doubt
You need to read the findings of a new report that's out
Researchers got some mice to sing The Londonderry Air
And afterwards the mice filled in a detailed questionnaire
Results were read and counted now they know how mice react
Singing makes you happy it's a scientific fact.
Playing makes you now this comes as some surprise
The world of work is deemed to be a refuge for the wise.
Some mice formed a salsa band away from life’s concerns
Some spun on treadmills and did their tax returns.
They thought that this was how they'd keep their self esteem intact
But playing makes you happy it's a scientific fact.
Dancing makes you happy but perhaps you need some proof
Some get happy with their feet while some stand back aloof
They got one group of mice to dance and one they called control
They put some speakers in the cage and played some Rock'n'Roll.
The first group had that something that the other group had lacked
Yes dancing makes you happy it's a scientific fact.
Loving makes you happy and according to research
The smiles belong to those in love not those left in the lurch
I was told not to trust everything I read
So one day I went out to check - I had some ducks to feed
And sure enough some lovers kissed, a little duckling quacked
Yes loving makes you happy it's a scientific fact.
