Ballons !
Ballons !
Ballons !Voulez-vous des ballons ?Quand l'automne bat sur les portesMoi je suis le marchand d'oiseauxJ'ai des oiseaux de toutes sortesQue je ne vends qu'aux gens comme il fautQue je ne vends qu'aux gens comme il fautMais j'attends avec impatienceQue revienne l'été aux chansonsPuisque l'été c'est les vacancesEt que je suis marchand de ballonsEt que je suis marchand de ballonsFaut m'voir Ballons !
Ballons !J'en ai des verts des bleus des rougesEt dans les airs parbleu ils bougentDans les yeux éblouis des gaminsJ'en ai des roses et des pervenchesQui resplendissent le dimancheSur les va-et-vient des jardinsCe n'est pas que ça me rapporteDe quoi construire ma maisonMais j'ai des joies de toutes sortesA être marchand de ballonsA être marchand de ballonsEt ces ballons qui font des bondsSont prisonniers d'un filD'un fil subtilMais assez long à cause des plafonds.
