Jacques Brel

Jacques Brel (French pronunciation: ​[ʒak bʁɛl]; 8 April 1929 – 9 October 1978) was a Belgian singer-songwriter who composed and performed literate, thoughtful, and theatrical songs that generated a large, devoted following in France initially, and later throughout the world. He was widely considered a master of the modern chanson. Although he recorded most of his songs in French, he became a major influence on English-speaking songwriters and performers such as David Bowie, Leonard Cohen, Marc Almond and Rod McKuen. English translations of his songs were recorded by many top performers in the United States, including Ray Charles, Judy Collins, John Denver, the Kingston Trio, Nina Simone, Frank Sinatra, Scott Walker, and Andy Williams.

Ils s'éveillent à l'heure du berger
Pour se lever à l'heure du thé
Et sortir à l'heure de plus rien
Les paumés du petit matin
Elles, elles ont l'arrogance
Des filles qui ont de la poitrine
Eux, ils ont cette assurance
Des hommes dont on devine
Que le papa a eu d'la chance
Les paumés du petit matin

Venez danser
Copain, copain, copain, copain
Copain, copain, copain
Venez danser
Et ça danse les yeux dans les seins

Ils se blanchissent leurs nuits
Au lavoir des mélancolies
Qui lave sans salir les mains
Les paumés du petit matin
Ils se racontent à minuit
Les poèmes qu'ils n'ont pas lus
Les romans qu'ils n'ont pas écrits
Les amours qu'ils n'ont pas vécues
Les vérités qui n'servent à rien
Les paumés du petit matin

Venez danser
Copain, copain, copain, copain
Copain, copain, copain
Venez danser
Et ça danse les yeux dans les seins

L'amour leur déchire le foie, ah
Ah, c'était, c'était si bien
C'était, ah ah ah vous ne comprendriez pas
Les paumés du petit matin
Ils prennent le dernier whisky
Ils prennent le dernier bon mot
Ils reprennent le dernier whisky
Ils prennent le dernier tango
Ils prennent le dernier chagrin
Les paumés du petit matin

Venez pleurer
Copain, copain, copain, allez!
Allez, venez, venez
Allez, venez pleurer
Et ça pleure les yeux dans les seins
