Bonjour Tristesse
Alain Souchon Lyrics
Comme
Je suis l'homme élégant,
Pour conduire je mets les gants
Dans les bolides extravagants
De Françoise Sagan
Dans ses romans, dans ses nouvelles,
Cette dame-demoiselle mêle
De jolies mélancolies frêles
Et je chante ma ritournelle
"Bonjour tristesse"
"La Chamade", "La Laisse"
"De guerre lasse"
"Aimez-vous Brahms ?"
Voyez le bonheur comme il passe
Allons voir ce qui le remplace
Au Bristol Palace
Au black jack, au chemin de fer, au tour de passe-passe
Les jeunes filles un peu coquines
Que des messieurs plus âgés taquinent
Au bord de très jolies piscines
Dans les Jaguars sublimes
Et les Aston Martin
"Bonjour tristesse"
"La Chamade", "La Laisse"
"Il fait beau jour et nuit"
"Le cheval évanoui"
Que l'amour c'est du chinois,
Les dames et leurs jolis minois
Les messieurs aussi se noient
Dans le whisky, le rêve et l'alcool de noix
Il faut voir ce qu'ils endurent
Comme l'amour c'est dur
Qui laisse de profondes blessures
Dont on parle avec désinvolture
"Bonjour tristesse"
"La Chamade", "La Laisse"
"Les yeux de soie"
"Bonheur impair et passe"
Comme
Je suis l'homme élégant,
Pour conduire, je mets les gants
"Bonjour tristesse"
