Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song Monsieur Jonas , by - Charles Aznavour. Song from the album Chansons d'Amour, in the genre ЭстрадаMonsieur Jonas(original) |
| Il y avait, il y avait |
| Un monsieur très entouré |
| Un monsieur très admiré |
| Un monsieur très à la page |
| Qui vivait dans un village |
| De son métier chef de gare |
| Et de plus roi du billard |
| Le champion de la contrée |
| Et que nul n’osait contrer |
| Dans le village on disait plein d'égards… gare |
| Monsieur Jonas |
| Est un as |
| Au billard |
| Faut voir |
| Comme il joue |
| Car ses coups |
| Sont fumants |
| Époustouflants |
| Matin et soir |
| Sur le comptoir |
| Y’a son verre |
| De bière |
| Les gens se pressent |
| Et acquiescent |
| Ses coulées |
| Ses coups doublés |
| Au coin de la bouche un mégot presqu'éteint |
| On croit qu’il louche pourtant il n’en est rien |
| Il sait très bien calculer ses effets |
| Il sait ce qu’il fait |
| Il ne se presse pas |
| S'énerve pas |
| Mais il prend |
| Son temps |
| Son jeu est sûr |
| Sa figure |
| A le sourire |
| Ce qui fait dire |
| Monsieur Jonas |
| Est un as |
| Au billard |
| A le voir |
| Les gens tout haut |
| Crient bravo |
| C’est un as |
| Monsieur Jonas |
| Il y a eu, il y a eu |
| Un monsieur qu’est arrivé |
| Un monsieur étranger |
| Un monsieur très à la page |
| Qui venait d’un autre village |
| Contre Jonas il joua |
| Et Jonas perdit cette fois |
| Mais ne pouvant le supporter |
| Un soir il s’est suicidé |
| Et dans le village on ne joue plus au billard… car |
| Le diable passe |
| C’est Jonas |
| Qui revient |
| Malin |
| Il frappe les joueurs |
| Qui de peur |
| S'évanouissent |
| Font une jaunisse |
| Il boit la bière |
| Casse des verres |
| Mange les bleus |
| Parbleu |
| Sans crier gare |
| Dans le billard |
| Tout de go |
| Fait des accrocs |
| Au lointain on entend gémir les trains |
| Les trains fantômes qui courent dans le matin |
| Sur son passage le vent balaye tout |
| Et crie comme un fou |
| Jonas, Jonas |
| Les villageois |
| Perdent la joie |
| Et le sommeil |
| Et dans leurs oreilles |
| Vite ils enfilent |
| Du coton hydrophile |
| Pour ne plus écouter |
| Un Jonas déchaîné |
| Qui se met à hurler |
| Monsieur Jonas |
| Est un as |
| Au billard |
| (translation) |
| There was, there was |
| A very surrounded gentleman |
| A much admired gentleman |
| A very up-to-date gentleman |
| Who lived in a village |
| From his job stationmaster |
| And besides king of billiards |
| The champion of the land |
| And no one dared to counter |
| In the village they said full of consideration... beware |
| Mr Jonah |
| is an ace |
| Billiards |
| must see |
| How he plays |
| Because his blows |
| are smoking |
| Breathtaking |
| Morning and evening |
| On the counter |
| There is his glass |
| beer |
| People are crowding |
| And nod |
| Its flows |
| His double punches |
| In the corner of the mouth an almost extinct cigarette butt |
| You think he's cross-eyed, but he's not |
| He knows very well how to calculate his effects |
| He knows what he's doing |
| He's in no hurry |
| Don't get angry |
| But he takes |
| His time |
| His game is safe |
| His face |
| Has a smile |
| What makes say |
| Mr Jonah |
| is an ace |
| Billiards |
| To see it |
| People up high |
| Shout cheers |
| It's an ace |
| Mr Jonah |
| There was, there was |
| A gentleman has arrived |
| A foreign gentleman |
| A very up-to-date gentleman |
| Who came from another village |
| Against Jonah he played |
| And Jonah lost this time |
| But can't bear it |
| One night he committed suicide |
| And in the village we don't play billiards anymore... because |
| The devil passes |
| It's Jonah |
| That comes back |
| clever |
| He hits the players |
| Who's afraid |
| faint |
| make you jaundiced |
| He drinks beer |
| Glass breakage |
| eat the blues |
| Parbleu |
| Without warning |
| In the pool table |
| Straight off |
| Made hitches |
| In the distance we hear the moaning of the trains |
| Ghost trains that run in the morning |
| In its path the wind sweeps everything away |
| And scream like crazy |
| Jonas, Jonas |
| The villagers |
| Lose the joy |
| And sleep |
| And in their ears |
| Quickly they put on |
| Absorbent cotton |
| To stop listening |
| A raging Jonas |
| Who starts screaming |
| Mr Jonah |
| is an ace |
| Billiards |
