You wanted to see Vierzon

And we saw Vierzon

You wanted to see Vesoul

And we saw Vesoul

You wanted to see Honfleur

And we saw Honfleur

You wanted to see Hamburg

And we saw Hamburg

I wanted to see Antwerp

We saw Hamburg again

I wanted to see your sister

And we saw your mom

As always

You didn't like Vierzon anymore

We left Vierzon

You didn't like Vesoul anymore

We left Vesoul

You didn't like Honfleur anymore

We left Honfleur

You didn't like Hamburg anymore

We left Hamburg

You wanted to see Antwerp

We only saw its suburbs

You didn't like your mom anymore

We left your sister

As always

But I'm telling you

I won't go any farther

But I'm warning you

I won't go to Paris

Besides, I hate

All the fanfare

The musette waltz

And the accordion

You wanted to see Paris

And we saw Paris

You wanted to see Dutronc

And we saw Dutronc

I wanted to see your sister

I saw Mont Valérien

You wanted to see Hortense

She was in the Cantal

I wanted to see Byzantium

And we saw Pigalle

At Saint-Lazare station

I saw The Flowers of Evil

By chance

You didn't like Paris anymore

We left Paris

You didn't like Dutronc anymore

We left Dutronc

Now I mix up your sister

And Mont Valérien

From what I know of Hortense

I won't go to the Cantal anymore

And too bad for Byzantium

Since I've seen Pigalle

And Saint-Lazare station

It's expensive, and it hurts

By chance

But I'm telling you again

I won't go any farther

But I'm warning you

The trip is over

Besides, I hate

All the fanfare

The musette waltz

And the accordion

But I'm telling you again

I won't go any farther

But I'm warning you

The trip is over

Besides, I hate

All the fanfare

The musette waltz

And the accordion

SONG MEANING

Ever hopped from city to city with someone who never seems satisfied? In Pomplamoose’s lively cover of Vesoul, our unlucky narrator is dragged on a whirlwind tour that starts with small French towns like Vierzon and Vesoul, zigzags to Hamburg, Paris, and even the red-light glow of Pigalle. Each stop feels like ticking a box: You wanted to see it, so we saw it… and now you hate it, so we leave. The rapid-fire itinerary turns into a hilarious cycle of wanderlust and instant boredom, painting a portrait of a relationship stuck on perpetual shuffle.

By the time the accordion-laced refrain pops up, the traveler has had enough. He swears he will go no farther, grumbles about his dislike for flonflons (that old-timey street-music vibe) and the ever-present musette accordion, and calls the whole journey off. Beneath the humor sits a gentle jab at people who believe happiness is always in the next place rather than the present moment. The song’s playful geography lesson doubles as a reminder: if you cannot find contentment where you are, packing another suitcase probably will not help.
