Send "Goodbye Toulouse" Ringtone to Cell

Your streets were paved with love
Your skies were blue
Goodbye Toulouse

I walked your streets in fear
I washed your streets with tears
Toulouse

Goodbye Toulouse

Your cafes tell the tale
Of saddened millionaires
Toulouse

A million dreams I've had
A million lies I've told
Toulouse

Goodbye Toulouse

Paula looked down on me
From her high balcony
Toulouse

I will return some day
So you can hear me say
Farewell

Goodbye Toulouse
Goodbye Toulouse
Goodbye Toulouse

Send "Goodbye Toulouse" Ringtone to Cell

    General Comment:It was about 30 degrees,I was stuck in monster traffic, then some cunt drove into our van and sped off. My girlfriend misdirected me INTO the Airbus factory and I hit a speed-bump I hadn't noticed. I took off...singing Goodbye Toulouse.

    General Comment:These lyrics by JJ Burnel are easily the classiest from their debut album.
    The song concerns a nuclear accident in Toulouse's future as predicted by Nostrodamas (according to the Meninblack.)
