Rififi Page #3

all it means is rough n' tumble

Rififi

When I'm done workin' the beat,

he takes me to the movies as a treat

He don't care what flick we see,

so long as it's got rififi

In love, he can be kinda rough,

he don't go for sentimental stuff

A chick, he keeps telling me,

gets her kicks on rififi

And when he really lets himself go,

I get a cuff just for the show

And when I'm lying by his side,

I'm nothing, I got no pride

In paradise I wanna be,

I'll pay the price in rififi

You look like you don't have a clue,

like no one ever spoke to you

About rififi

It's not a word that people use

Among the swells,

the who's who's

Rififi

It's the lingo of the streetwise,

the battle cry of real tough guys

Rififi

So don't fry your brain and grumble,

all it means is rough n' tumble

Rififi

Champagne, sir?

- What are you doing here?

- What a surprise!

That's perfect. This is Cesar.

The Stephanois.

That's your Cesar?

You cut him out of a catalog?

He says you look like a tramp.

Glad to meet you.

Why'd you bring him here?

He insisted. He says we should

stick together on everything.

A Saint Bernard.

So you quit the Rve Bleu?

Three weeks ago.

Mr. Cesar. He's sorry

but he don't yack in French.

But I understand everything.

Don't recognize me?

Should I?

Tony the Stephanois.

Nothing to say to me?

I thought you were still doing time.

You're out, congrats.

I know Mado was with you.

But now she's with me. That's life.

So don't try anything.

You lay off me and I'll lay off you.

Okay?

I don't believe it!

Mado didn't tell him.

She didn't have to.

It's stamped across her back.

Hey, Maximilian,

I'm running on empty.

Then back to the garage.

By the way...

- You know Mado?

- Sure, I do.

- Where is she?

- She's taking a trip.

When was this?

Last night. She took off,

then phoned Viviane later.

- Is that all?

- That's all.

Go play with boys your own age.

- Well?

- Tell you later. What about Cesar?

Thanks a lot!

Don't cry. He just learned

some women have guts.

Proposition interesting.

Certain can handle in London.

Teddy Levantine.

Florist delivery. 5:50 a.m.

- Ready?

- Just about.

Sure-Alarm.

What's it say?

It's no pushover.

It's the latest model.

It's getting harder

to make a living.

After you!

Turn it on.

Severing any wire

causes a power cut

and activates the alarm system.

Now we know.

Hook it up.

Ready?

The bastards thought of everything.

They're clever,

but maybe not clever enough.

Contact!

You ain't seen nothin' yet.

This little box...

this is our deadly enemy.

In every door, every window.

Any vibration in a wall or a floor

momentarily causes a power cut

which activates the alarm
