On a chanté la Tour Eiffel
Montmartre et puis l'quartier Javel
Paris, c'est grand, c'est beau c'est fou
Mais c'est parce qu'il y a dessous
Un brave homme d'employé
Qui l'matin sur le quai
Fait des "huit" compliqués
MÉTRO !
C'est l'journal à huit francs
Qu'on lit d'bout en roulant
Gêné par un chapeau
MÉTRO !
C'est la dame qui s'déplace
Pour se voir dans la glace
D'un air indifférent
MÉTRO !
L'chef de train qui s'embête
Et joue sur sa trompette
Un p'tit air rigolo
C'est l'MÉTRO !
Le visage de la Capitale
N'est pas celui d'la rue Pigalle
Ça c'est l'argent, le jeu, l'amour
Mais la vie de tous les jours :
C'est l'monsieur étourdi
Qui s'lève et puis qui crie :
"Bon sang, j'descend ici
Mais attendez, mais attendez ! "
C'est à six heures du soir
A la gare Saint-Lazare
La sortie des bureaux
MÉTRO !
Les trottins qui papotent
Les amants qui s'bécotent
La dame et son tricot
MÉTRO !
La fille aux yeux si doux
Qu'on suivrait n'importe où
Mais qui descend trop tôt
C'est l'MÉTRO !
Roule, roule toujours
Tes chagrins, tes amours
Tes joies de tous les jours
MÉTRO !
Emmène au rendez-vous
Les heureux, les jaloux
D'un bout à l'autre bout
MÉTRO !
Qui s'en va, qui revient
C'est le sang parisien
Toujours vif et nouveau
MÉTRO !
Ce qui fait que Paris
Hier comme aujourd'hui
Est toujours aussi beau
C'est l'MÉTRO !
Ce qui fait que Paris
Hier comme aujourd'hui
Est toujours aussi beau
C'est l'MÉTRO !
Les stations, couleurs vives :
Les biscuits, la lessive
Les petits, les grands panneaux
MÉTRO !
Rendez-vous à "Glacière"
Juste en face des premières
A demain mon coco
N'oublie pas !
Tous les yeux du wagon
Fixés sur un g'nou rond
Qui s'découvre un peu trop
MÉTRO !
L'apprenti du plombier
Qui nous pose sur le pied
Son sac de trente kilos
C'est l'MÉTRO !
Yves Montand, stage name of Ivo Livi (Marseille, October 13, 1921 – Paris, November 9, 1991), was an Italian-born French singer and actor. Considered one of the greatest interpreters of French chanson in the 20th century, Montand combined vocal power with a deep interpretive sensibility. His career, which began in the 1940s in France, saw him collaborate with some of the most important names in French music and cinema, including Charles Aznavour, Edith Piaf and Jean-Luc Godard. Among his most famous songs are "Les Feuilles Mortes", "La Vie en Rose" (cover of Édith Piaf) and "Le Chant des Partisans". Montand also starred in numerous films, earning international recognition for his performance in "Red Sky" (1964), directed by Jean-Luc Godard.
