| Il en joue mieux que personne

|
| C’est un trombone solo bien rigolo

|
| Sa moustache trop longue et dure

|
| Se prend dans son embouchure;
| Gets caught in its mouth;
|

|
| Ça fait «coin coin»
| It's "corner corner"
|
| Plus Papa pousse dans son trombone
| More Dad pushes in his paper clip
|
| Plus Papa pousse, plus on s' bidonne
| The more Papa pushes, the more we mess around
|
| Quand la fanfare défile
| When the marching band marches
|
| C’est encore plus difficile
| It's even more difficult
|
| Car mon Papa ne sait pas marcher au pas
| 'Cause my daddy can't walk
|
| Il allonge son trombone
| He stretches out his trombone
|
| Dans l’derrière du saxophone

|
| Qui lui dit d’un air rageur:
| Who says to him with a furious air:
|
| Va jouer ailleurs
| Go play somewhere else
|

| More Dad pushes in his paper clip
|
| Plus Papa pousse, plus on s' bidonne | The more Papa pushes, the more we mess around |
