Grand'mère


Faut voir grand-mère
Grand-mère et sa poitrine
Grand-mère et ses usines
Et ses vingt secrétaires Faut voir mère-grand
Diriger ses affaires
Elle vend des courants d'airDéguisés en coups de vent Faut voir grand-mère
Quand elle compte son magot
Ça fait des tas de zéros
Pointés comme son derrière Mais pendant c'temps-làGrand-père court après la bonne
En lui disant que l'argentNe fait pas le bonheur
Comment voulez-vous bonnes gens
Que nos bonnes bonnes
Et nos petits épargnants
Aient le sens des valeurs Faut voir grand-mèreC'est une tramontane
Qui fume le HavaneEt fait trembler la Terre Faut voir grand-mère
Cerclée de généraux
Être culotte de peau
Et gagner leur guèguerre Faut voir grand-mère
Dressée sous son chapeauC'est WaterlooOù s'rait pas venu Blucher Mais pendant c'temps-làGrand-père court après la bonne
En lui disant que l'arméeElle bat l'beureComment voulez-vous bonnes gens
Que nos bonnes bonnes
Et nos chers piou-pious
Aient le sens des valeurs Faut voir grand-mèreS'assure sur la mort
Un p'tit coup d'presbytèreUn p'tit coup de r'mords Faut voir grand-mère
Et ses ligues de vertu
Ses anciens combattants
Ses anciens combattus Faut voir grand-mère
Quand elle se croit pécheresse
Un grand verre de grand-messe
Et un doigt de couvent Mais pendant c'temps-làGrand-père court après la bonne
En lui disant que les curés
Sont farceurs
Comment voulez-vous bonnes gens
Que nos bonnes bonnes
Et nos petits incroyants
Aient le sens des valeurs Mais il faut voir grand-père
Dans les bistrots bavards
Où claquent les billards
Et les chopes de bière Faut voir père-grand
Caresser les roseaux
Effeuiller les étangs
Et pleurer du Rimbaud Faut voir grand-père
Dimanche finissant
Honteux et regretantD'avoir trompé grand-mère Mais pendant c'temps-làGrand-mère se tape la bonne
En lui disant que les hommes
Sont menteurs
Comment voulez-vous bonnes gens
Que nos bonnes bonnes
Et notre belle jeunesse
Aient le sens des valeurs
