This is part of the complete Exercises in Song cycle being released on this site.
"Homage: End" is a bonus exercise, not to be found in Raymond Queneau's original Exercices de Style nor in the translations.
To be sung to the tune of "Show Me The Way To Go Home". More information here.
Farewell, Parisian streets,
The gare Saint-Lazare and Cour de Rome!
I had a little wander, in style after style,
But now I’ve found my way home.
My writing hand grows slow
For I started long ago,
And it just remains for me to declare
Merci! to Raymond Queneau.
