Pauvre Clown

Je suis né dans un vieil atelier
Tout mon corps est un morceau de peuplier
Je n'ai pas de souvenirs d'enfance
Il m'a tout de suite fait monter sur les planches
L'homme qui m'a inventé
Est un menuisier
Qui voudrait me voir danser
Lui, il tire les ficelles
Et moi je m'emmèle
Trop souvent les pieds
Pauvre clown
Pauvre pomme
Je n'sait pas bien danser
Tous les soirs dans ce maudit théâtre
Le public n'applaudit jamais mon spectacle
Je rate mon numéro de claquettes
C'est normal, je ne suis qu'une marionnette
L'homme qui m'a inventé
Est un menuisier
Qui voudrait me voir danser
Lui, il tire les ficelles
Et moi je m'emmèle
Trop souvent les pieds
Pauvre clown
Pauvre pomme
Petit homme
Coeur de bois
L'homme qui m'a inventé
Ne m'a rien donné
Pas même une poupée de papier
Pauvre clown
Pauvre pomme
Pauvre clown
Pauvre pomme
Pauvre pomme
Pauvre pomme
Pauvre clown
Pauvre clown
Pauvre clown
