I noticed some action on a rehearsal studio version of this track here on SoundCloud, so I thought to upload a tighter version of it

As the band UMF dissolved, I really wanted to carry over some of the songs to the new band (now called Laybow), in particular this one, so I recorded a half decent version of it and pitched it.

It was picked up and has been a setlist favourite for a long time now, albeit the lyrics and solo bit have slightly changed.

I put this 2013 recording through a bit modern treatment.

lyrics:

ready to take it
whatever you're saying
maybe I'll make it
maybe you'll break it

wanna play?
not today!
wanna play?
stop screwing around!

leave me hanging
broken record spinning
somehow it's fitting
I'm not used to winning

wanna play?
not today!
wanna play?
stop screwing around!

... oh make me stay
and take me out
and do me proud
and let me down
stop screwing around

let me down
let me down
do me proud
stop screwing around
let me down
let me down
do me proud
stop screwing around

A PEINE SUIS-JE NÉ QUE ME VOILÀ TRÉPANÉ
ET MES PLEURS FONT LE BONHEUR 
DE CEUX QUI SONT CENSÉS M’AIMER
YEAH YEAH
MÉMÉ PÉPÉ PAPA MAMAN
J’ATTENDS
DE VOIR

ET PUIS ON ME CRAPAHUTE
ON ME TRANSBAHUTE
JE CHERCHE EN VAIN LE CHEMIN 
QUI ME RAMÈNE À MA HUTTE
YEAH YEAH 
ALORS JE PASSE LA PREMIÈRE
CAR J’AI DE LA ROUTE À FAIRE
JE DÉRACINE MES TERRES
ADIEU PÈRE ET MÈRE
YEAH YEAH

OH UFO CIA FBI DNA
SOUDAIN J’AI VU MES REGRETS DE HAUT

IF YOU SEE SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING
IF YOU SEE SOMETHING SHUT UP !

LE CIEL PLEURE LA TERRE PENCHE
JANE A LA MÉMOIRE QUI FLANCHE
LA VEUVE LOUCHE SUR LA MANCHE
DANS SA ROBE BLANCHE
LE CIEL EST BAS LA MER EST D’ENCRE 
MOI ÇA Y EST J’AI LEVÉ L’ANCRE 
ET JE M’ACCROCHE À LA HOULE
COMME LA ROCHE À LA MOULE

ADIEU VEAUX VACHES COCHONS
ADIEU ADIEU
LES BATAILLES DE POLOCHON
LES COUPS DE FEU
ADIEU ADIEU
ACCROCHE TOI ! ACCROCHE-TOI À MOI

SEUL ON COULE DANS LES EAUX OU DANS LA FOULE
UN C’EST BIEN DEUX C’EST MIEUX

SOUDAIN TERRE
EST-CE UNE ÎLE SOLITAIRE PEUPLÉE D’ÊTRES IMAGINAIRES ?
OU UNE VILLE IMAGINAIRE PEUPLÉE D’ÊTRE SOLITAIRES ?
MYSTÈRE

HEY HO QU’AI-JE FAIT DE BEAU
QU’AI-JE DE FAUX ET SUIS-JE UN ANGE OU UN SALAUD
HEY HO JE L’AI DANS LA PEAU LA BALLE LE COUTEAU 
ET L’ENFANT JE L’AI DANS LE DOS
HEY HO OHÉ DU BATEAU
MAINTENANT C’EST TROP C’EST TROP BEAU ET C’EST PAS TROP TÔT
HEY HO JE TIRE MON CHAPEAU
ET JE TOMBE À L’EAU ALLO ALLO ALLO
HEY HO HEY HO


A PEINE SUIS-JE MORT
QUE ME REVOILÀ DEHORS
JETÉ SUR LE MACADAM ET PARMI LES MÉTÉORES
J’AVAIS DÉJÀ VENDU MON ÂME 
ME VOILÀ MAINTENANT SANS CORPS
OUI MAIS IL ME RESTE LA FLAMME
ET J’EN REDEMANDE ENCORE
ENCORE

JIMMY AIMA EMMA
QUI AIMA JIMMY EN RETOUR 
UN BEL ABRACADABRA 
C’EST ÇA L’AMOUR

NAMED AFTER HER GRANDMA
EMMA COULD READ BY AGE OF THREE
THAT WAS LONG BEFORE THE KENNEDY FAMILY 
BECAME A PASSION TO JIMMY
ANYWAY...

DE RHODE ISLAND À NEWPORT
UN PETIT PAS DE GÉANT À FAIRE
POUR DÉCROCHER LA LUNE EN QUELQUE SORTE 
IT’S ONLY FAIR

EMMA AIMAIT ROSIE
BUT A DOG’S LIFE IS WAY TOO SHORT 
FOR A COMPANION OF THE SORT
IF YOU ASK ME
ANYWAY...

YOUR LOVE YOUR LUCK YOUR KARMA 
TOUT ÇA ME PARAIT DE BONNE AUGURE 
MADOLYN & RAY, JIMMY EMMA
AND MANY OTHERS J’EN SUIS SÛR 
ANYWAY

WHILE DRIVING HIS LINCOLN CONTINENTAL 
JIMMY’S GETTING SENTIMENTAL
ABOUT THE VARIOUS BOSTON MOBSTERS LIKE ENRICO PONZO
CARMEN « CHEESE MAN » DI NUNZIO
JAMES WHITEY BULGER, STEPHEN « THE RIFLEMAN » FLEMMI AND MANY OTHERS J’EN SUIS SÛR

UN BEL ABRACADABRA C’EST ÇA L’AMOUR

ABRACADABRA (Lyrics) Song for Jimmy & Emma

Broadcast 2025-10-06

This is a light ballad about a heavy subject.

Musically, it’s very simple, an acoustic guitar, with a solo vocal.

The instrumental provided by the guitar was simple and could almost be called neutral in this context.

But that’s not the case when you listen to the vocal, and I mean listen.

The vocal tone and stress is again neutral, but the lyrics are a world away from that.

It’s a classical tale of a breakup, initiated by the other, and the singer trying to work through what just happened.

It was “the final break as you walked out the door”

She sings, “I’m trying to figure you out” but “I can’t seem to write it down.”

There’s some history to this break though, something perceived as not right but which festered  “’cause you never really tried to fix it.”

It is definitely seen as final, because she concludes “I don’t know how to leave this mess, but I do”

A good instrumental, great lyrics and a great voice to go with it.

You’ve done the rising star performances, go for it!
