Landru


Monsieur le Procureur, je regrette de n'avoir à vous offrir que ma tête, Oh !
...Silence ou je fais évacuer la salle

Landru, Landru, Landru, vilain barbu
Tu fais peur aux enfants
Tu séduis les mamans
Landru, Landru, ton crâne et ton poil dru
Ont fait tomber bien plus d'un prix d'vertu
C'était, je crois, en mill' neuf cent vingt-trois
Que ton procès eut le succès qu'l'on sait
Landru, Landru, dommage qu'elles t'aient cru
Tout's cell's qui sous ton toit
Brûlèr'nt pour toi

Tu leur parlais si bien lorsque tu leur disais
Venez ma douce amie, allons vite à Gambais
J'ai une petite villa, rien que monter descendre
Hélas elles montaient et descendaient en cendres

Landru, Landru, de quel bois te chauffes-tu
Ton four fait d'la fumée
Sous la verte ramée
Landru, Landru, un ramoneur est v'nu
Il a dans ta ch'minée trouvé un nez
Calciné
Pendant l'verdict, pas un mot, pas un tic
Énigmatique, tu restas hiératique
Landru, Landru en jaquette en bottines
Y a un' veuve qui t'a eu,
La Guillotine

Landru, Landru, on prétend qu'on t'a vu
En bon p'tit grand-père
Vivant à Buenos-Aires
La barbe rasée et la moustache frisée
Plus rien de l'homme d'alors,
C'est ça la mort
Disons, tout d'suite, qu'en mill' neuf cent vingt-huit
Ce genre d'histoire était facile à croire

Landru, Landru, tout passe avec le temps
A présent, tu n'fais plus peur aux enfants
Mais tu séduis pourtant bien des grand'mamans
Et d'Plougastel à Tarhes
Elles rêvent de ta barbe
Et de son poil dru, vieux Landru.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

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.
