En t'écrivant ces mots j'frémis
Par tout mon être,
Quand tu les liras j'aurais mis
L'nez à la f'nêtre
J'suis réveillé, depuis minuit,
Ma pauv' Toinette,
J'entends comme une espèce de bruit,
A la Roquette.
L'Président n'aura pas voulu
Signer ma grâce,
Sans dout' que ça y aura déplu
Que j'me la casse
Si l'on graciait à chaque coup
Ca s'rait trop chouette,
D'temps en temps faut qu'on coupe un cou,
A la Roquette.
Là-haut, l'soleil blanchit les cieux,
La nuit s'achève,
I's vont arriver, ces messieurs,
V'là l'jour qui s'lève.
Maint'nant j'entends, distinctement,
L'peuple en goguette,
Qui chante su' l'air de "L'enterr'ment",
A la Roquette.
Tout ça, vois-tu, ça n'me fait rien,
C'qui m'paralyse
C'est qu'i faut qu'on coupe, avant l'mien,
L'col de ma ch'mise
En pensant au froid des ciseaux,
A la toilette,
J'ai peur d'avoir froid dans les os,
A la Roquette.
Aussi j'vas raidir pour marcher,
Sans qu' ça m'émeuve,
C'est pas moi que j'voulais flancher
Devant la veuve
J'veux pas qu'on dise que j'ai eu l'trac
De la lunette,
Avant d'éternuer dans l'sac
A la Roquette.
Aristide Bruant (Paris, 1851 – Paris, 1905) was a French singer and chansonnier, considered one of the pioneers of Parisian cabaret. With his gravelly voice and theatrical style, Bruant captured the bohemian and decadent atmosphere of late nineteenth-century Paris. His songs, often on social or political themes, addressed poverty, prostitution, and life in popular Paris. Bruant was a controversial figure, loved by some for his authenticity and criticized by others for his daring themes. Among his most famous songs are "Le Chanson du Vieux Moulin" and "La Vie Bohème". His influence on French cabaret was profound, paving the way for artists like Édith Piaf and Jacques Brel.
