Damien Rice @ L'Olympia - The Professor and la Fille Danse

Damien Rice Live @ L'Olympia - The Professor and la Fille Danse recorded on July 05th.
Awesome performance. I was leaning against the fence and obviously the crowd was in a dancing mood (so was I) so it's getting all shaky at some moments.

Once upon a time there was a little penis who had a normal life. He was young and... Life was quite simple : pee, sleep, keep himself dangling (he mimes it), pee, sleep and so on. It was quite simple.
One day, this little penis had a ... how do you say (in french) "a heart attack" ***laughs*** (the audience shouts "crise cardiaque)(he tries to repeat) "Chris Carsdiak" (laughs & applause)
But it wasn't funny because .... hhhuuuuhhhh..... something happened and it was very difficult for this little penis because he didn't know what was the problem and a few time later, this little penis... umh... umh... My french is bad because there's a lot of mistakes(applause)
A few months later with this ... umh... "disease" he found out (damien played with the audience on how to conjugate decouvrir : he said decouvré) that it was possible to live with this problem umh... but the only trouble with it, was that other people, mostly umh... girls, had problems with this new "way of life".
So the penis went on journey umh... to my place and knocked on my door and asked me :
-"what should i do, what should i do?"
-"I don't know, what's the problem"
-"Life was so simple I was like that (dangling)and then "pssshhh", I want to do this and this. Maybe the others are right, maybe I'm insane or something like that"
and I Said :
-"well I don't know, I'm a musician, I'm not a doctor but I can write you a song"
-"Oh, thanks a lot"
And I wrote a song....

This is my favourite of all Damien's songs! Every time I hear it I find new meanings and metaphors in the lyrics. He's a phenomenal artist.
