Elle n'est pas jolie
La chanson que je chante
Comme un oiseau meurtri
Elle a l'aile pendante...
Ah! Si j'avais le goût
Je créerais une ronde
Mais comme un vieux caillou
J'attends la fin du monde
Y a l'ouvrier qui meurt
Un soir de grande peine
Y a l'homme sans honneur
Qui n'a plus que sa haine..
Y a le garçon trahi
Par la fille qu'il aime
Y a cette mélodie
De la douleur humaine
Y a aussi le soleil
Qui joue dessus les pêches
Mais y a celle qui veilleSur un malade rêche...
Y a les bambins heureux
Qui courent au bord du lac...
Mais y a les deux gros yeux
De la faucheuse au sac
Tout de même, y a l'bon Dieu
Qui entend nos misères
Qui de son livre bleu
Rejette l'éphémère...
Que vienne le matin
Beau comme un fleuve bleu
Où tous les malheureux
Se presseront la main !
