Lyrics of Papajoue du trombone - Bourvil

Papajoue du trombone (original)

Mon Papa joue du trombone
Il en joue mieux que personne
C’est un trombone solo bien rigolo
Sa moustache trop longue et dure
Se prend dans son embouchure;
Puis au lieu de faire «tu tuut»
Ça fait «coin coin»
Plus Papa pousse dans son trombone
Plus Papa pousse, plus on s' bidonne
Quand la fanfare défile
C’est encore plus difficile
Car mon Papa ne sait pas marcher au pas
Il allonge son trombone
Dans l’derrière du saxophone
Qui lui dit d’un air rageur:
Va jouer ailleurs
Plus Papa pousse dans son trombone
Plus Papa pousse, plus on s' bidonne

(translation)

My daddy plays the trombone
He plays it better than anyone
It's a fun solo trombone
His mustache too long and harsh
Gets caught in its mouth;
Then instead of doing "tu tuut"
It's "corner corner"
More Dad pushes in his paper clip
The more Papa pushes, the more we mess around
When the marching band marches
It's even more difficult
'Cause my daddy can't walk
He stretches out his trombone
In the back of the saxophone
Who says to him with a furious air:
Go play somewhere else
More Dad pushes in his paper clip
The more Papa pushes, the more we mess around
