The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
La jambe de Rimbaud,
De retour à Marseille
Comme un affreux cargo
Chargé d'étrons vermeils,
Dérive en immondices
À travers les égouts.
La beauté fut assise
Un soir sur ce genou.
Horreur Harar Arthur,
Et tu l'as injuriée.
Horreur Harar Arthur
Tu l'as trouvée amère... la beauté?
Une saison en enfer
Foudroie l'Abyssinie.
Ô sorcière, ô misère,Ô haine, ô guerre, voici
Le temps des assassins
Que tu sponsorisés
En livrant tous ces flingues
Au royaume de Choa
Horreur Harar Arthur,
Ô Bentley, ô châteaux,
Horreur Harar Arthur,
Quelle âme, Arthur est... sans défaut?
Les poètes aujourd'hui
Ont la farce plus tranquille
Quand ils chantent au profit
Des derniers Danâkil.
Juste une affaire d'honneur
Mouillée de quelques larmes
C'est quand même un des leurs
Qui fournissait les armes.
Horreur Harar Arthur,
T'es vraiment d'outre-tombe.
Horreur Harar Arthur
Et pas de commission.
Horreur Harar Arthur
Et pas de cresson bleu
Horreur Harar ArthurOù la lumière pleut.
