day 25 - a song that makes you laugh

I need to laugh today cuz it's my last day of work at the Orchestra today, and I'm terribly sad.
Thursday afternoon, Adeline sent me an email telling me how we had to do for me to leave. I worked too much, that makes a lot of hours the Orchestra has to pay me. But ... it's too much, and they can't pay everything. So, we had to deal : they pay me a part, and I leave before the end (that was supposed to be in 10 days)
Learning thursday afternoon, on my way for a little bit of b-day shopping (I turned 25 last week), that my last day was supposed to be yesterday, it was hard. Really really hard.

I came yesterday, worked slowly and decided to do a little blackmail with Adeline.
On my very last day, I had to clear my boxmail, my computer, my desk and leave my keys. Plus, helping with some readings of the new brochure, and call the last 10 musicians who didn't give us pix for the brochure. Yesterday afternoon, because Adeline was not here (imagine, I had to say goodbye when there was only Emilie and I at the office : no way !!!), I texted her :
If I deliberately leave a BIG mess on my desk today, can I come few hours tomorrow ?
She answered : THAT'S BLACKMAIL !!! But ok, just FEW hours ! 

So I came back this morning. When I arrived, she told me joking "I don't even ask you what you're doing here !!!"

It's gonna be a hardddddddddd day ! So, I enjoy the fact that today I have to post a song that makes me laugh ! 

Today's song is a French song, with awesome lyrics. Sorry, I think you won't understand it.
It's the story of a man, walking outside.
He finds a flower, a bottle of wine and a handshake. He wants to share it with the others, but never finds somebody to.


La Rose, La Bouteille et La Poignée de Main - by Georges Brassens

And, because I really need to laugh, I suggest this second one. Still by Georges Brassens.
In France, all the musicians are buried in the Montparnasse Cemetery. He talks about the Parisian cemeteries, tells that he can have a place everywhere he wants, except at Montparnasse Cemetery, a shame for a French Singer. 
(FYI, Georges Brassens is not buried in Paris but in South of France, in his village)
