Dans notre village, autrefois,
Un ours énorme dévastait le bois.
Il faisait peur au bûcheron
Et du berger mangeait tous les moutons.
Le maire et monsieur le curé
Dirent en colère : "Cela ne peut durer.
Cet ours nous enlève tout repos.
Avant huit jours, il faut avoir sa peau."
On partit donc de bon matin
Dans la forêt qui sentait le bon pin
Avec des piques des flambeaux
Car, ce jour-là, il ne faisait pas beau.
Nous avons marché tout le jour
Et, malgré ça, nous n'avons pas vu d'ours.
Pourtant, à la tombée de la nuit,
Dans un sentier, on voit un œil qui luit
Et pan ! Voilà monsieur le Curé
Qui met en joue et s'en est bien tiré
Mais l'ours, qui n'était que blessé,
Tout étourdi, roula dans un fossé.
On l'emporta à la maison
Et, dans la cave, on le met en prison.
Depuis ce jour, apprivoisé,
L'ours pas méchant, joyeux et bien rasé
Se charge d'un tas de travaux.
A la fontaine il va quérir de l'eau.
Il sait conduire le tracteur.
Au nouvel an, il aide le facteur.
Pour la distribution des prix,
C'est son discours qui fut le mieux compris.
Depuis qu'il siège au tribunal,
On s'aperçoit que ça ne va pas plus mal.
Tout marche mieux à la mairie.
Ah, s'ils avaient le même ours à Paris...
Charles Trenet (Louis Charles Auguste Claude Trenet), born May 18, 1913, in Narbonne and died February 19, 2001, in Créteil, was a highly successful French singer-songwriter. His career began in the 1930s and reached its peak between the late 1930s and the mid-1950s, although it continued until the 1990s. Trenet distinguished himself by writing most of his songs, refusing to record songs composed by other artists during a period when it was rare for singers to write their own material. Among his most famous successes are "La Mer", "Boum!" and "Y'a d'la joie". Trenet helped define the sound of French chanson, influencing generations of artists.
