La langue française a fait son temps
Paraît qu'on n'arrête pas l'progrès
Que pour être vedette à présent
Il vaut mieux chanter en anglais
Et moi et moi pauvre de moi
Qui me tais depuis si longtemps
Faudrait qu'je fasse gaffe à tout ça
Que je m'reconvertisse à temps
J'ai pris la méthode assimil
My tailor in the pocket
Pour avoir l'air comme les débiles
D'arriver du Massachusetts
Pour être encore en haut d'l'affiche
Faudrait qu'je sussure en angliche
Si j'veux coller à mon époque
Il me faut braire en amerloque
Singing in the rain
Singing in the train
Singing my heart
Singing in the woods
Singing in the blood
It is not the tarte
S'il n'y a plus rien d'autre à faire
Pour échapper à la misère
Si c'est l'seul moyen ici-bas
D'intéresser les mass média
Si le français ou le breton
Si l'occitan ou l'auvergnat
Comme on m'le dit sur tous les tons
Le show-business il aime pas ça
Y a p't-êtr' quand même un avantage
A cette évolution sans frein
On pourra chanter sans entrave
Quand les gens n'y comprendront rien
Pour être encore en haut d'l'affiche
J'pourrai sussurer en angliche
Si je n'veux pas finir en loque
Je pourrai braire en amerloque
Singing in the rain
Singing in the train
Singing my heart
Singing in the woods
Singing in the blood
It is not the tarte
J'entends les copains ricaner
Que j'ai plutôt l'accent manouche
Ils sont jaloux d'mon p'tit succès
Quand j'ai d'la bouillie plein la bouche
Grâce aux sondages indiscutables
Dans l'âme du français moyen
Il paraît que nos responsables
Savent tout du goût de chacun
Plaire à tout l'monde et à personne
C'est pas donné à n'importe qui
N'allez pas croire qu'ils s'en tamponnent
S'ils nous transforment en colonie
Pour être encore en haut d'l'affiche
J'commence à penser en angliche
Quand j'aurai le feeling ad hoc
Ça va faire mal en amerloque
Singing in the rain
Singing in the train
Singing my heart
Singing in the woods
Singing in the blood
It is not the tarte
Jean Ferrat, born Jean Tenenbaum (1930-2010), was one of the most beloved and influential French singer-songwriters of the 20th century.
