À la légère

Oh la vie, la vie, quelle affaire !
L'amour à mon avis, il faut comprendre
Sa vie, il faudrait pouvoir la faire
L'amour à mon avis, savoir le prendre
Le prendre, ouh, ouh... à la légère
Toup tou bi dou... à la légère
Déjà si grave en Angleterre,
Les garçons, il faut les comprendre
Leur Jaguar E, leurs Austin-Cooper
Et leur bouche, leur bouche j'aurais dû les prendre
Les prendre, ouh, ouh... à la légère
Toup tou bi dou... à la légère
J'apporte déjà mes affaires
Pour qu'on reste toujours ensemble,
J'envie celles qui s'envoient en l'air
Qui savent seules, toutes seules, redescendre
Descendre, ouh, ouh... à la légère
Toup tou bi dou.. à la légère
Ouh, ouh... à la la légère
Toup tou bi dou
Oh la vie, la vie, quelle affaire !
L'amour à mon avis, il faut comprendre
Sa vie, il faudrait pouvoir la faire
L'amour à mon avis, savoir le prendre
Le prendre, ouh, ouh... à la légère
Toup tou bi dou... à la légère.
