Qu'est-ce que vous dit's, mossieur l'gendarme ?
Que j'pilonn', que j'n'ai pas d'métier,
Que j'suis sans aveu -z-et sans carme.
Vous rigolez, mon brigadier
Quels sont mes moyens d'existence ?
D'où que j'viens ?... Ej'viens d'n'importe où...
Quand à c'que fais, y a pas d'offense,
Ej'vends mon crayon pour un sou.
Oui, je l'sais bien, j'ai-z-un' sal' fiolle,
J'ai vraiment pas l'air d'un rupin.
Aussi, bon Dieu, j'fais pas l'mariolle,
Ej'cranott' pas comme un youpin.
Ah ! Bon Dieu, non, j'suis pas d'leur tierce :
J'suis un trimardeur, un voyou,
J' fais pas parti' du haut commerce :
Ej' vends mon crayon pour un sou.
Quand j'dis qu'je l'vends, c'est z'un' figure,
Entre nous on n'me l'prend jamais.
Vrai, y a déjà longtemps qu'i dure
Pourtant, i n'est pas pus mauvais
Qu'un aut', mais y a-z-un' concurrence !!
C'est à qui s'ra l'plus filou...
C'qu'i y en a des mangins en France...
Moi, j'vends mon crayon pour un sou.
Et c'est ceux-là qu'a des boutiques !
Des étalag' ébouriffants !!
Un fonds !... des clients !!... des pratiques
Et des femm's avec des enfants...
Des môm's qui leur fait des caresses !...
Moi... j' vis tout seul comme un hibou.
Avec quoi qu'j'aurais des gonzesses ?
Ej'vends mon crayon pour un sou.
Allons !... au r'voir, mossieu l'gendarme,
Vous l'voyez ben, j'ai-z-un métier
Avec quoi que j'me fais du carme,
Allons... au r'voir, mon brigadier
Les v'là mes moyens d'existence...
A présent j'm'en vas n'importe où...
Vous l'voyez ben, y a pas d'offense,
Ej'vends mon crayon pour un sou.
Aristide Bruant (Paris, 1851 – Paris, 1905) was a French singer and chansonnier, considered one of the pioneers of Parisian cabaret. With his gravelly voice and theatrical style, Bruant captured the bohemian and decadent atmosphere of late nineteenth-century Paris. His songs, often on social or political themes, addressed poverty, prostitution, and life in popular Paris. Bruant was a controversial figure, loved by some for his authenticity and criticized by others for his daring themes. Among his most famous songs are "Le Chanson du Vieux Moulin" and "La Vie Bohème". His influence on French cabaret was profound, paving the way for artists like Édith Piaf and Jacques Brel.
