Restaurant chez raymond


C'est ici que j'ai grandi, au restaurant Chez Raymond
C'est dans les bras de papys que je demandais des bonbons
J'ai rampé sous toutes les tables, j'ai grimpé sur tous les bans
Avec mon air haïssable et mes caries plein les dents

C'est ici que tous les dimanches après la messe de 11h
Je venais traîner mes manches dont plat de pudding-chômeurs
J'ai joué à me faire prendre sur les genoux de tous les clients
J'ai même fait des châteaux de cendres dans le cendrier de mon oncle Jean

C'est ici que j'ai grandi au restaurant Chez Raymond
Ils m'ont payé le spaghetti à ma première communion
Je me faisais aller les fesses, je m'imaginais des talons
Puis j'imitais la waitress dans l'entrée du bar salon
C'est ici que j'ai appris à tenir le cabaret
Sans renverser les pepsi, les W8 et les Dubonnay
Et ça faisait rire tout le monde quand je passais avec les chips
Oh je me rappelle la madame blonde qui me donnait toujours du thé

C'est ici que j'ai appliqué au restaurant Chez Raymond
Pour ma première job d'été qui est devenu une quatre saisons
J'étais pas bonne dans les potages, ça fait qu'ils m'ont changé de place
J'avais pas tout à fait l'âge mais je me maquillait en masse
C'est comme ça que je me suis retrouvée dans l'entrée du bar salon
À faire des bloody mary aux clients de mon patron
À travailler sous pression sur 3 pouces de talons
Et à me faire pincer les fesses par le dernier des saoulons

C'est ici que j'ai fait ma marque, au restaurant Chez Raymond
Entre Rémy, Martin et Jack, Daniel bien sur de son nom
J'ai rampé sous toutes les tables, j'ai dansé sur tous les bancs
Avec mon air pitoyable et mes bustiers transparents
J'ai mille fois vidé la cendre du cendrier de mon oncle Jean
J'ai accepté de me faire prendre sur les genoux de tous les clients
J'ai servi jusqu'à 5h, moi je connaissais la police
Oh, je le menais par le bout du cœur juste en lui montrant mes cuisses

C'est ici que je vieilli, au restaurant Chez Raymond
Moi, j'ai pas d'autres amis, moi j'ai pas d'autre maison
Moi, j'ai pas d'autre pays que le restaurant Chez Raymond
Moi je connais chaque souris qui piétine ce plafond
Moi je connais chaque jointure de chacun des poings serrés
Qui ont fait des trous dans ces murs qui ont les oreilles décollées
C'est ici que je vais mourir au Restaurant chez Raymond
La bouche pleine de souvenirs et puis de tarte au citron.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
