C'était vraiment un employé modèle
Monsieur william
toujours exact et toujours plein de zèle
Monsieur william
Il arriva jusqu'à la quarantaine sans fredaine
sans le moindre petit drame
mais un beau soir du mois d'août
il faisait si bon il faisait si doux
que Monsieur william s'en alla flâner droit devant lui
[Refrain] :
Monsieur william vous manquez de tenue
qu'alliez vous faire dans la 13ème avenue
Il rencontra une fille bien jeunette Monsieur william
il lui paya un bouquet de violette Monsieur william
il l'entraîna à l'hôtel de la pègre
mais un nègre a voulu prendre la femme
Monsieur william hors de lui
lui a donné des coups de parapluies
oui mais le nègre dans le noir
lui a coupé le cou en deux coups d' rasoir.
[Refrain]
Il l'a senti que c'est irrémédiable Monsieur william
il l'entendit déjà crier le diable Monsieur william
aux alentours il n'y avait personne qu'un trombone
chantant la peine des âmes un aveugle en gémissant
sans le savoir à marché dans le sang
puis dans la nuit a disparu
c'était peut être le destin qui marchait dans la rue
[Refrain]
Serge Gainsbourg, nato Lucien Ginsburg a Parigi il 2 aprile 1928, è stato uno dei cantautori francesi più influenti del XX secolo. Figlio di immigrati russi ebrei, si distinse per la sua personalità provocatoria e le sue canzoni spesso controverse che esploravano temi come l'amore, la sessualità e la società francese. Gainsbourg ha iniziato la sua carriera come paroliere e compositore per altri artisti prima di emergere come cantante nel 1958 con il successo "Bonnie and Clyde". Il suo stile musicale era un mix eclettico di chanson française, jazz, rock e blues, influenzato da artisti come Charles Aznavour e Elvis Presley. Tra i suoi brani più famosi ricordiamo "Je t'aime... moi non plus", "La Javanaise" e "Histoire de Melody Nelson". Gainsbourg ha collaborato con numerose artiste, tra cui Jane Birkin, Brigitte Bardot e Juliette Gréco. La sua vita personale è stata spesso oggetto di scandali e controversie, ma la sua musica continua a essere apprezzata e celebrata in tutto il mondo.
