One press of Sing plays this song on this device (3:17) and stops after the last: the piano and the words come from the score, so a key change or a slower tempo changes no sound file.
The microphone is asked for only when you press its button. What it hears is measured and scored on this device and never leaves it; nothing is kept unless you record and save the file yourself. What is kept, and where.
The words
Madrid, princesse des Espa -- gnes,
Il court par tes mille campagnes Bien des
yeux bleus, bien des yeux noirs. La blanche
ville aux sérénades, Il passe par tes
promenades, Bien des petits pieds tous les
soirs.
Madrid, quand les taureaux bondis -- sent,
Bien des mains blanches applaudissent,
Bien des écharpes sont en jeu; Par tes belles
nuits étoilées,
Bien des séñoras long voilées Descendent
tes escaliers bleus.
Madrid, Madrid, moi je me raille De tes dames
à fine taille Qui chaussent l'escarpin
é- troit; Car j'en sais une, par le monde,
Que jamais ni brune ni blonde N'ont valu le
bout de son doigt, Car c'est ma princesse
Andalouse!
Ma princesse Andalouse! Mon amoureuse,
ma jalouse, Ma belle veuve au long réseau!
C'est un vrai démon,
c'est un ange!
Elle est jaune comme une orange,
Elle est vive comme l'oiseau!
Or, si d'aventure on s'enquê -- te
Qui m'a valu telle conquête, C'est l'allure
de mon cheval, Un compliment sur sa mantille
Et des bonbons à la va nille
Par un beau soir de carnaval.
