Lyrics Mélanie Georges Brassens

Mélanie


Les chansons de salle de garde
Ont toujours été de mon goût,
Et je suis bien malheureux, car de
Nos jours on n'en crée plus beaucoup.
Pour ajouter au patrimoine
Folklorique des carabins, {2x}
J'en ai fait une, putain de moine,
Plaise à Dieu qu'elle plaise aux copains. {2x}

Ancienne enfant d'Marie-salope
Mélanie, la bonne au curé,
Dedans ses trompes de Fallope,
S'introduit des cierges sacrés.
Des cierges de cire d'abeille
Plus onéreux, mais bien meilleurs, {2x}
Dame! la qualité se paye
A Saint-Sulpice, comme ailleurs. {2x}

Quand son bon maître lui dit : "Est-ce
Trop vous demander Mélanie,
De n'user, par délicatesse,
Que de cierges non encore bénits ?"
Du tac au tac, elle réplique
Moi, je préfère qu'ils le soient, {2x}
Car je suis bonne catholique
Elle a raison, ça va de soi. {2x}

Elle vous emprunte un cierge à Pâques
Vous le rend à la Trinité.
Non, non, non, ne me dites pas que
C'est normal de tant le garder.
Aux obsèques d'un con célèbre,
Sur la bière, ayant aperçu, {2x}
Un merveilleux cierge funèbre,
Elle partit à cheval dessus. {2x}

Son mari, pris dans la tempête
La Paimpolaise était en train
De vouer, c'était pas si bête,
Un cierge au patron des marins.
Ce pieux flambeau qui vacille
Mélanie se l'est octroyé, {2x}
Alors le saint, cet imbécile,
Laissa le marin se noyer. {2x}

Les bons fidèles qui désirent
Garder pour eux, sur le chemin
Des processions, leur bout de cire
Doiv'nt le tenir à quatre mains,
Car quand elle s'en mêl', sainte vierge,
Elle cause un désastre, un malheur. {2x}
La Saint-Barthélemy des cierges,
C'est le jour de la Chandeleur. {2x}

Souvent quand elle les abandonne,
Les cierges sont périmés;
La saint' famill' nous le pardonne
Plus moyen de les rallumer.
Comme ell' remue, comme elle se cabre,
Comme elle fait des soubresauts, {2x}
En retournant au candélabre,
Ils sont souvent en p'tits morceaux. {2x}

Et comme elle n'est pas de glace,
Parfois quand elle les restitue
Et qu'on veut les remettre en place,
Ils sont complètement fondus.
Et comme en outre elle n'est pas franche,
Il arrive neuf fois sur dix {2x}
Qu'sur un chandelier à sept branches
Elle n'en rapporte que six. {2x}

Mélanie à l'heure dernière
A peu de chances d'être élue;
Aux culs bénits de cett' manière
Aucune espèce de salut.
Aussi, chrétiens, mes très chers frères,
C'est notre devoir, il est temps, {2x}
De nous employer à soustraire
Cette âme aux griffes de Satan. {2x}

Et je propose qu'on achète
Un cierge abondamment béni
Qu'on fera brûler en cachette
En cachette de Mélanie.
En cachette car cette salope
Serait fichue d'se l'enfoncer {2x}
Dedans ses trompes de Fallope,
Et tout s'rait à recommencer. {2x}

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
