Serge

(original)
Je m’en souviens
Oh, je m’en souviens très bien
Je m’en souviens
C'était en fin de matinée
Dans le quartier latin
J’avais très froid aux mains
Le 28 février
Oh je m’en souviens très bien
Je l’ai noté dans mon calepin
A la page 111
Je l’ai vu arriver
Rue de l’Université
Il marchait difficilement
A pas très lents
Il serrait sa canne blanche
Dans sa main aussi blanche
Il était rasé de près
Ce qui m’a fait un drôle d’effet
Je l’ai suivi discrètement
Il est rentré au tabac dans
La rue des Saint Pères
En claudiquant
Il a pris ses Gitanes
Sans demander quoique ce soit
J'étais juste derrière lui
Moi j’ai pris des Lucky
Puis je l’ai encore suivi
Jusqu'à chez lui
Jusqu'à la rue de Verneuil
Au 5 bis jusqu’au seuil
Non, Je ne lui ai pas parlé
Mais qu’est ce que j’aurais raconté?
Que j’aimais ce qu’il faisait?
Que j’aimerais faire des chansons?
Qu’est ce que ça peut lui foutre au fond
Que je fasse des chansons?
Qu’est ce que ça peut lui foutre au fond
Que je fasse des chansons?
Il est mort 3 jours après
Assis au bord de son lit
En plein après midi
Complètement dénudé
Avait il fumé
Les Gitanes qu’il avait achetées
Devant mes yeux éberlués?
5 paquets
Dans sa main, de papier froissé
Que j’ai vu se refermer
Je l’ai vu acheter
Son tout dernier paquet
Le 28 février
Le 2 mars
Est-ce qu’il avait tout fumé
Lorsqu’il s’est envolé?
Vers Melody
Vers Mary Lou
Vers l’homme à la tête de chou
(translation)
I remember
Oh, I remember it very well
I remember
It was late morning
In the Latin district
I had very cold hands
February 28
Oh I remember it very well
I wrote it down in my notebook
On page 111
I saw it happen
University Street
He was walking with difficulty
Very slow steps
He clutched his white cane
In his white hand
He was clean shaven
What had a funny effect on me
I followed him quietly
He went back to tobacco in
The Street of the Holy Fathers
Limping
He took his Gypsies
Without asking anything
I was right behind him
I took Lucky
Then I followed him again
To his house
To rue de Verneuil
At 5 bis to the threshold
No, I haven't spoken to him
But what would I have said?
That I liked what he was doing?
That I would like to do songs?
What the fuck can he do to him deep down
That I make songs?
What the fuck can he do to him deep down
That I make songs?
He died 3 days later
Sitting on the edge of his bed
In the middle of the afternoon
Completely naked
Did he smoke
The Gitanes he had bought
In front of my dumbfounded eyes?
5 packets
In his hand, of crumpled paper
That I saw close
I saw him buy
His latest package
February 28
March 2
Did he smoke it all
When he flew away?
To Melody
To Mary Lou
Towards the man with the cabbage head
