Le Barbu Sans Barbe
Avez-vous vu un barbu sans barbe?
Avez-vous vu un poilu sans poil?
Car ce barbu m'a laissé sa barbe
Oui ce poilu m'a laissé ses poils
Poils de chameau faut qu'je précise
Car ce salaud m'a chipé lise
Quand on l'a vu penaud, crotté,
Ma femme et moi, eûmes pitié
L'avons lavé et bien rasé
Il était bien beau, il a remercié
Comme trois amis on s'est mis à table
Repas sans fin, il avait faim le pauvre diable
Il a raconté qu'il a tout raté
C'était touchant de le voir pleurer
L'avons bien plaint, réconforté
L'avons mis couché et bien bordé
Le lendemain manquait ma valise
Mon costume neuf, ma plus belle chemise
Pas étonnant que mes effets lui aillent
Car le coquin était de ma taille
Mais près de moi, y avait plus ma lise
Elle n'a pas voulu lâcher la valise
Quel infamie, c'est renversant
La pauvre fille m'appelle sûrement
Il est parti ma valise à la main
Mais c'qui est pire, ma lise à l'autre main
L'avez-vous vu ma valise à la main?
L'avez-vous vu ma lise à l'autre main?
Avez-vous vu un barbu sans barbe?
Avez-vous vu un poilu sans poil?
Car ce barbu m'a laissé sa barbe
Oui ce poilu m'a laissé ses poils!
The Bearded Man Without a Beard
Have you seen a bearded man without a beard?
Have you seen a hairy man without hair?
Because this bearded man left me his beard
Yes, this hairy man left me his hairs
Camel hairs, I must specify
Because that bastard stole my lise
When we saw him ashamed, dirty
My wife and I took pity
We washed him and shaved him well
He looked good, he thanked us
Like three friends, we sat at the table
Endless meal, he was hungry, poor devil
He told us he messed up everything
It was touching to see him cry
We pitied him, comforted him
We put him to bed and tucked him in
The next day my suitcase was missing
My new suit, my best shirt
No wonder my things fit him
Because the rascal was my size
But next to me, my lise was missing
She didn't want to let go of the suitcase
What an outrage, it's shocking
The poor girl is surely calling me
He left with my suitcase in hand
But what's worse, my lise in the other hand
Have you seen my suitcase in hand?
Have you seen my lise in the other hand?
Have you seen a bearded man without a beard?
Have you seen a hairy man without hair?
Because this bearded man left me his beard
Yes, this hairy man left me his hairs!
