Derrière sa vitrine
La fine farine
Des années
Tombée des horloges
Comme les grains d'orge
D'un grenier
Entasse des sacs
De tic et de tac
Sous son nez
{Refrain:}
Qui réparera
Demain son cœur à
L'horloger ?
Qui réparera
Demain son cœur à
L'horloger ?
C'est ça, la magie
Du temps qui blanchit
Les cheveux
Abracadafroid !
Et la vie n'y voit
Que du feu
Sous l'aiguille à moudre
Une à une en poudre
Les journées
{au Refrain}
L'humble chirurgien
De ce temps de chien
Enragé
Qui ouvre et recoud
Le ventre au coucou
Fatigué
Quand sonnera l'âge
Des premiers rouages
A changer
{au Refrain}
Les montres étanches
Sautent de dimanche
A mardi
Les vieilles toquantes
Sonnent onze heures cinquante
A midi
Les vieilles pendules
Ont le ventricule
Usagé
{au Refrain}
Sur la porte en bas
Deux ou trois mots pas
Un de plus
On est peu de choses
On brade pour cause
D'infractus
Ah, la belle farce !
Le temps dans son quartz
S'est figé
L'automne aux carreaux
Rouille le cœur aux
Horlogers
