Marche des dos(original) |
A bas la romance et l’idylle, |
Les oiseaux, la forêt, le buisson, |
Des marlous, de la grande ville, |
Nous allons chanter la chanson ! |
V’là les dos, vivent les dos ! |
C’est les dos les gros, |
Les beaux, |
A nous les marmites ! |
Grandes ou petites |
V’là les dos, vivent les dos ! |
C’est les dos les gros, |
Les beaux, |
A nous les marmites et vivent les dos ! |
Marlous, nos marmites sont belles, |
Le bourgeois les adore, à genoux, |
Et Paris, qui compte avec elles, |
Est forcé d’compter avec nous. |
V’là les dos, vivent les dos ! |
C’est les dos les gros, |
Les beaux, |
A nous les marmites ! |
Grandes ou petites |
V’là les dos, vivent les dos ! |
C’est les dos les gros, |
Les beaux, |
A nous les marmites et vivent les dos ! |
Le riche a ses titres en caisse, |
Nous avons nos valeurs en jupon, |
Et malgré la hausse ou la baisse, |
Chaque soir on touche un coupon, |
V’là les dos, vivent les dos ! |
C’est les dos les gros, |
Les beaux, |
A nous les marmites ! |
Grandes ou petites |
V’là les dos, vivent les dos ! |
C’est les dos les gros, |
Les beaux, |
A nous les marmites et vivent les dos ! |
Le pante a beau faire des largesses, |
Il ne peut être aimé comme nous, |
Il a beau fader nos gonzesses, |
Il n’sait pas leur foutre des coups. |
V’là les dos, vivent les dos ! |
C’est les dos les gros, |
Les beaux, |
A nous les marmites ! |
Grandes ou petites |
V’là les dos, vivent les dos ! |
C’est les dos les gros, |
Les beaux, |
A nous les marmites et vivent les dos ! |
La rousse a beau serrer les mailles |
Du filet qu’elle tend aux déchus, |
Nous savons, grâce à nos écailles, |
Glisser entre ses doigts crochus. |
V’là les dos, vivent les dos ! |
C’est les dos les gros, |
Les beaux, |
A nous les marmites ! |
Grandes ou petites |
V’là les dos, vivent les dos ! |
C’est les dos les gros, |
Les beaux, |
A nous les marmites et vivent les dos ! |
Pourtant, les jours de guillotine, |
Quand la loi raccourcit un marlou, |
Nous allons lui chanter matine, |
Pendant qu’on lui coupe le cou. |
V’là les dos, vivent les dos ! |
C’est les dos les gros, |
Les beaux, |
A nous les marmites ! |
Grandes ou petites |
V’là les dos, vivent les dos ! |
C’est les dos les gros, |
Les beaux, |
(translation) |
Down with romance and idyll, |
The birds, the forest, the bush, |
From the hoodlums, from the big city, |
We'll sing the song! |
Here come the backs, long live the backs! |
It's the big backs, |
The beautifuls, |
We have the pots! |
Big or small |
Here come the backs, long live the backs! |
It's the big backs, |
The beautifuls, |
We have the pots and long live the backs! |
Marlous, our pots are beautiful, |
The bourgeois adores them, on his knees, |
And Paris, which counts with them, |
Is forced to reckon with us. |
Here come the backs, long live the backs! |
It's the big backs, |
The beautifuls, |
We have the pots! |
Big or small |
Here come the backs, long live the backs! |
It's the big backs, |
The beautifuls, |
We have the pots and long live the backs! |
The rich have their securities in cash, |
We have our values in petticoat, |
And despite rising or falling, |
Every night we touch a coupon, |
Here come the backs, long live the backs! |
It's the big backs, |
The beautifuls, |
We have the pots! |
Big or small |
Here come the backs, long live the backs! |
It's the big backs, |
The beautifuls, |
We have the pots and long live the backs! |
The pante may give largesse, |
He cannot be loved like us, |
He faded our chicks, |
He doesn't know how to kick them. |
Here come the backs, long live the backs! |
It's the big backs, |
The beautifuls, |
We have the pots! |
Big or small |
Here come the backs, long live the backs! |
It's the big backs, |
The beautifuls, |
We have the pots and long live the backs! |
The redhead has nicely tighten the stitches |
From the net she spreads to the fallen, |
We know, thanks to our scales, |
Slipping through her crooked fingers. |
Here come the backs, long live the backs! |
It's the big backs, |
The beautifuls, |
We have the pots! |
Big or small |
Here come the backs, long live the backs! |
It's the big backs, |
The beautifuls, |
We have the pots and long live the backs! |
Yet on guillotine days, |
When the law shortens a rascal, |
We will sing to him matin, |
While they cut off his neck. |
Here come the backs, long live the backs! |
It's the big backs, |
The beautifuls, |
We have the pots! |
Big or small |
Here come the backs, long live the backs! |
It's the big backs, |
The beautifuls, |
