Le monsieur qui passe


Je voudrais être ce monsieur qui passe
Ce monsieur qui passe sans se presser
Il a le charme des princes de race
Qu'on a mis au monde tout habillés
Costume en lin, chemise en soie
Cravate à pois, chaussures en daim
Ce monsieur-là connaît bien son solfège
Il joue comme un Chopin des Nocturnes en arpège
Coupe au rasoir, ongles soignés
Montre en sautoir, parfum discret
Ce monsieur-là a la taille rêvée
Pour marcher dans la foule sans lever le nez

Et je voudrais être ce monsieur qui passe
Ce monsieur qui passe et ne me voit pas
Avoir ce regard où je ne vois trace
Du regret de qui, de l'ennui de quoi
Qu'il me fait envie, que je voudrais être
Ce monsieur qui passe et qui n'est pas moi
Moi dont je suis las, dans qui je m'empêtre
Que je n'aime pas

Je voudrais être ce monsieur qui passe
Il a le sourire des gens satisfaits
Et dans sa tête d'où rien ne dépasse
Tout est à sa place, tout est rangé
Voiture de sport, ski à Morzine
Yacht aux Açores, le grand standing
Je quitte tout, je veux vivre sa vie
Et puis j'offre la mienne à n'importe quel prix
Museau fripé, nez en avant
Sourcils fâchés, les yeux tombants
Mes folies douces et mes peines de cœur
Allez, je brade tout, le pire et le meilleur

Que je voudrais être ce monsieur qui passe
Ce monsieur qui passe et qui ne sait rien
Rien de mes espoirs, rien de mes angoisses
Rien de mes révoltes serrées dans mes poings
Je veux une vie où tout soit limpide
Où ne traînent pas tant des chiens perdus
Tant d'étés fanés, tant de chambres vides
Tant d'amours déçues

Ça y est! c'est moi lui, je passe à sa place
Ma peau se défroisse, je deviens charmant
Qu'est-ce que c'est vaste, enfin j'ai de l'espace
Sa tête, ô miracle, me va comme un gant
J'garde ma Jaguar, j'mange chez Régine
J'commande à boire, je me sens "in"
J'ai plus d'idées, enfin je suis tranquille
Les idées, cher Edgar, c'est pour les imbéciles
Je rentre chez moi, enfin, chez lui
J'entends une voix: "Bonsoir chéri !"
Non, pas sa femme ! Non, pas sa femme à lui !
Non, pas sa femme, pas sa femme à lui !

Je ne veux plus être ce monsieur qui passe
Et grand bien lui fasse d'être aussi beau
Je lui rends sa femme, ses tableaux de chasse
Je reprends mes billes, rendez-moi ma peau
Monsieur qui passez au regard tranquille
Comme je vous plains de n'être pas moi
Gardez votre cœur plein d'automobiles
Je garde le mien, je rentre chez moi

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
