It's usually used as a stand in for the rest of the verse which is "J'voudrais bien réussir ma vie; être aimé; Etre beau gagner de l'argent; Puis surtout être intelligent" (I'd like to be successful; be loved; be beautiful; make money; and mostly be intelligent). The titles of the pictures are somewhate cryptic - and strangely apt, if you're french speaking - but don't necessarily translate well.

Not sure why, maybe because the guy looks worried somehow. "De sourcil en sourcil" = From eyebrow to eyebrow, obviously this guy's got some. A play with the previous title. "De chausse en chausse" = From shoe to shoe, but this is an old term not used anymore. We say "chaussure". "De gueule en gueule" = From face to face. But "gueule" is more familiar, kind of like mug for lack of a better term (english doesn't have as many curses as french unfortunately). Overall I can translate them but it doesn't really make that much sense even in french. “De souci en souci” = From worry to worry. Not sure why, maybe because the guy looks worried somehow.
