Rene & Georgette Magritte With Their Dog After The War Lyrics - Paul Simon

René and Georgette Magritte 

With their dog after the war 

Returned to their hotel suite 

And they unlocked the door 

Easily losing their evening clothes 

They danced by the light of the moon 

To the Penguins, the Moonglows 

The Orioles, the Five Satins 

The deep forbidden music 

They'd been longing for 

René and Georgette Magritte 

With their dog after the war

René and Georgette Magritte 

With their dog after the war 

Were strolling down Christopher Street 

When they stopped in a men's store 

With all of the mannequins dressed in the style 

That brought tears to their immigrant eyes 

Just like the Penguins, the Moonglows 

The Orioles, the Five Satins 

The easy stream of laughter 

Flowing through the air 

René and Georgette Magritte 

With their dog après la guerre 

Side by side, they fell asleep 

Decades gliding by like Indians, time is cheap 

When they wake up, they will find 

All their personal belongings have intertwined 

Whoa, whoa, whoa

René and Georgette Magritte 

With their dog after the war 

Were dining with the power elite 

And they looked in their bedroom drawer 

And what do you think they have hidden away 

In the cabinet cold of their hearts? 

The Penguins, the Moonglows 

The Orioles, and the Five Satins 

For now and ever after 

As it was before 

René and Georgette Magritte 

With their dog after the war
