8. Ça ira - Edith Piaf
Here are part of the lyrics in English:
Ah! It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine aristocrats to the lamp-post Ah! It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine the aristocrats, we'll hang them!
If we don't hang them We'll break them If we don't break them We'll burn them Ah! It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine aristocrats to the lamp-post Ah! It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine the aristocrats, we'll hang them!
We shall have no more nobles nor priests Ah! It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine Equality will reign everywhere The Austrian slave shall follow him Ah! It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine And their infernal clique Shall go to hell
Ah! It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine aristocrats to the lamp-post Ah! It'll be fine, It'll be fine, It'll be fine the aristocrats, we'll hang them! And when we'll have hung them all We'll stick a shovel up their arse.

(My claim to fame of sorts is being asked by Limahl if I wanted to go to a party with him. No, didn't go.) Because you were too shy?

Oh, that's great, Huckle! There is no English-language wikipedia entry on him, which is a shame as he is an important folklorist. While looking for something in English, I came across this, which might interest you: www.imdb.com/title/tt5487700/plotsummary?ref_=tt_ov_plThis is not part of the 8-song game, but I'll post it for myself, as it's late & time to go to bed ~
