Tous les oiseaux étaient dehors
Et toutes les plantes aussi.
Le petit cheval n'est pas mort
Dans le mauvais temps, Dieu merci.
Le bon soleil criait si fort :
Il fait beau, qu'on était ravis.
Moi, l'enterrement de Paul Fort,
Fut le plus beau jour de ma vie.
On comptait bien quelques pécores,
Quelques dindes à Montlhéry,
Quelques méchants, que sais-je encore :
Des moches, des mauvais esprits,
Mais qu'importe ? Après tout ; les morts
Sont à tout le monde. Tant pis,
Moi, l'enterrement de Paul Fort,
Fut le plus beau jours de ma vie.
Le curé allait un peu fort
De Requiem à mon avis.
Longuement penché sur le corps,
Il tirait l'âme à son profit,
Comme s'il fallait un passeport
Aux poètes pour le paradis.
S'il fallait à Dieu du renfort
Pour reconnaître ses amis.
Tous derrière en gardes du corps
Et lui devant, on a suivi.
Le petit cheval n'est pas mort
Comme un chien je le certifie.
Tous les oiseaux étaient dehors
Et toutes les plantes aussi.
Moi, l'enterrement de Paul Fort,
Fut le plus beau jour de ma vie.
