La gitane

Je la voyais danser, danser
La gitane sur le paquet
Des cigarettes de papa
Elle avait une robe en papier
Les yeux bleus comme la fumée
Et la peau couleur de tabac
Eh, señorita SEITA
Ce soir je vais craquer pour toi
L'accordéon de mes poumons
Sur cette fine silhouette
Et ses castagnettes muettes
Dans la nuit noire du goudron
Viens me donner à la tétine
Ces paroles de nicotine
Qui mettent ma gorge au supplice
Quand cent mille bouches te baisent
Du bout filtre jusqu'à la braise
Dans un champ de papier maïs
Descend jusqu'au fond du mégot
Chanter du rocko-flamenco
En grattant mes cordes vocales
Danser les pieds nus dans la cendre
Allumer ma bouche et entendre
Battre mon coeur de caporal
O belle brune qui se fume
Dans ce siècle où tout se consume
Entre nos doigts jaunes et se jette
O toi qui portera mon deuil
Demain couché dans le cercueil
De mon étui de cigarettes
O toi qui portera mon deuil
Demain couché dans le cercueil
De mon étui de cigarettes
