Le marin

Il a une casquette marine
Une vareuse de pêche
Il chante sa plainte bleue marine
La bouche sèche
Le bleu qu'il met dans sa vodka,
Ca lui rappelle,
Tous les "j-aurai-dû" "y'avait-qu'à",
La Rochelle
Il voulait Molène en mer d'Iroise
Les ancres rouillées
Les baleines, la belle turquoise,
Les coffres oubliés
Les sirènes, les belles sournoises,
Les grands voiliers
La vie le promène en Seine et Oise,
Dans sa Simca rouillée
On vit la vie dans une brume
On a des fêtes,
Une boucle d'oreilles avec une plume
Dans la tête.
Le bleu qu'on met dans la vodka,
Ca nous rappelle
Tous les "j'aurai-dû" Y'avait-qu'à"
La Rochelle
On voulait Molène en mer d'Iroise
Les ancres rouillées
Les baleines, la belle turquoise,
Les coffres oubliés
Les sirènes, les belles sournoises,
Les grands voiliers
Mais la vie nous promène en Seine et Oise,
Dans sa Simca rouillée
On voulait Molène en mer d'Iroise
Les ancres rouillées.
Les baleines, la belle turquoise,
Les coffres oubliés
Les sirènes, les belles sournoises,
Les grands voiliers
Mais la vie nous promène en Seine et Oise,
Dans sa Simca rouillée
