Les belles étrangèresQui vont aux corridasEt qui se pâment d'aiseDevant la muletaLes belles étrangèresSous leur chapeau huppéOnt le teint qui s'altèreA l'heure de l'épéeAllons,
laissez-moi rireOn chasse on tue on mangeOn taille dans le cuirDes chaussures,
on s'arrangeEt dans les abattoirsOù l'on traîne les bœufsLa mort ne vaut guère mieuxQu'aux arènes le soirLes belles étrangèresQuand montent les clameursSe lèvent les premièresEn se tenant le cœurLes belles étrangèresSe jurent à jamaisDe chasser OrdóñezDe leurs rêves secretsAllons laissez-moi rireQuand le toro s'avanceCe n'est pas par plaisirQue le torero danseC'est que l'Espagne a tropD'enfants pour les nourrirQu'il faut parfois choisirLa faim ou le toroLes belles étrangèresVégétariennes ou pasQuittent leur banc de pierreAu milieu du combatQuittent leur banc de pierreAu milieu du combat
