C'est pour pouvoir enfin botter les fesses
A ces vieillards qui nous ont dit
Que nos vingt ans, que notre jeunesse
Ã?taient le plus beau temps de la vie
C'est pour pouvoir enfin botter le cÂ?ur
A ceux qui nous volent nos nuits
Ces maladroits qui n'ont que leur ardeur
Croulants qui n'ont que leur ennui
C'est pour cela, jeunes gens,
Qu'au fond de moi s'éveille
Le d
ésir charmant
De devenir vieille
C'est pour pouvoir un jour enfin leur dire
A celles qui me jugent avec fureur
"Pauvres grognasses" c'est pour pouvoir vous dire
"Je vous pardonne votre laideur"
C'est pour pouvoir leur dire à ces matrones
Qui mille fois m'ont condamnée
"Comment voulez-vous que l'on vous pardonne
Vous qui n'avez m
ême pas péch
é ?"
C'est pour cela, jeunes gens,
Qu'au fond de moi s'éveille
Le d
ésir charmant
De devenir vieille
C'est pour pouvoir, au jardin de mon cÂ?ur,
Ne soigner que mes souvenirs
Vienne le temps o
ù femme peut s'attendrir
Et ne plus jalouser les fleurs
C'est pour pouvoir enfin chanter l'amour
Sur la cithare de la tendresse
Et pour qu'enfin on me fasse la cour
Pour d'autres causes que mes fesses
C'est pour cela, jeunes gens,
Qu'au fond de moi s'éveille
Le d
ésir charmant
De devenir vieille
C'est pour pouvoir un jour oser lui dire
Que je n'ai bu qu'à sa santé
Que quand j'ai ri c'était de le voir rire
Que j'étais seule quand j'ai pleuré
C'est pour pouvoir enfin oser lui dire
Un soir, en filant de la laine
Qu'en le trompant mais ça, oserai-je le dire,
Je me suis bien tromp
ée moi-même
C'est pour cela, jeunes gens,
Qu'au fond de moi s'éveille
Le d
ésir charmant
De devenir vieille
