Monsieur william


C'était vraiment un employé modèle
Monsieur william
toujours exact et toujours plein de zèle
Monsieur william
Il arriva jusqu'à la quarantaine sans fredaine
sans le moindre petit drame
mais un beau soir du mois d'août
il faisait si bon il faisait si doux
que Monsieur william s'en alla flâner droit devant lui

[Refrain] :
Monsieur william vous manquez de tenue
qu'alliez vous faire dans la 13ème avenue

Il rencontra une fille bien jeunette Monsieur william
il lui paya un bouquet de violette Monsieur william
il l'entraîna à l'hôtel de la pègre
mais un nègre a voulu prendre la femme
Monsieur william hors de lui
lui a donné des coups de parapluies
oui mais le nègre dans le noir
lui a coupé le cou en deux coups d' rasoir.

[Refrain]

Il l'a senti que c'est irrémédiable Monsieur william
il l'entendit déjà crier le diable Monsieur william
aux alentours il n'y avait personne qu'un trombone
chantant la peine des âmes un aveugle en gémissant
sans le savoir à marché dans le sang
puis dans la nuit a disparu
c'était peut être le destin qui marchait dans la rue

[Refrain]

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Serge Gainsbourg, born Lucien Ginsburg in Paris on April 2, 1928, was one of the most influential French singer-songwriters of the 20th century. The son of Russian Jewish immigrants, he distinguished himself for his provocative personality and often controversial songs that explored themes such as love, sexuality, and French society. Gainsbourg began his career as a lyricist and composer for other artists before emerging as a singer in 1958 with the hit "Bonnie and Clyde". His musical style was an eclectic mix of chanson française, jazz, rock, and blues, influenced by artists such as Charles Aznavour and Elvis Presley. Among his most famous songs are "Je t'aime... moi non plus", "La Javanaise", and "Histoire de Melody Nelson". Gainsbourg collaborated with numerous female artists, including Jane Birkin, Brigitte Bardot, and Juliette Gréco. His personal life was often the subject of scandals and controversies, but his music continues to be appreciated and celebrated worldwide.
