C'tait au temps o Bruxelles rvait
C'tait au temps du cinma muet
C'tait au temps o Bruxelles chantait
C'tait au temps o Bruxelles bruxellait
Place de Broukre on voyait des vitrines
Avec des hommes des femmes en crinoline
Place de Broukre on voyait l'omnibus
Avec des femmes des messieurs en gibus
Et sur l'impriale
Le coeur dans les toiles
Il y avait mon grand-pre
Il y avait ma grand-mre
Il tait militaire
Elle tait fonctionnaire
Il pensait pas elle pensait rien
Et on voudrait que je sois malin
C'tait au temps o Bruxelles chantait
C'tait au temps du cinma muet
C'tait au temps o Bruxelles rvait
C'tait au temps o Bruxelles bruxellait
Sur les pavs de la place Sainte-Catherine
Dansaient les hommes les femmes en crinoline
Sur les pavs dansaient les omnibus
Avec des femmes des messieurs en gibus
Et sur l'impriale
Le coeur dans les toiles
Il y avait mon grand-pre
Il y avait ma grand-mre
Il avait su y faire
Elle l'avait laiss faire
Ils l'avaient donc fait tous les deux
Et on voudrait que je sois srieux
C'tait au temps o Bruxelles rvait
C'tait au temps du cinma muet
C'tait au temps o Bruxelles dansait
C'tait au temps o Bruxelles bruxellait
Sous les lampions de la place Sainte-Justine
Chantaient les hommes les femmes en crinoline
Sous les lampions dansaient les omnibus
Avec des femmes des messieurs en gibus
Et sur l'impriale
Le coeur dans les toiles
Il y avait mon grand-pre
Il y avait ma grand-mre
Il attendait la guerre
Elle attendait mon pre
Ils taient gais comme le canal
Et on voudrait que j'aie le moral
C'tait au temps o Bruxelles rvait
C'tait au temps du cinma muet
C'tait au temps o Bruxelles chantait
C'tait au temps o Bruxelles bruxellait
