Marchand de Sirop
Alain Souchon Lyrics

Qui c'est le cuistot,
L'idiot visuel,
Qui touille ses mots
Et qui rate le puits d'amour avec elle?
Qui Super-8,
Play-back rasoir,
Mimie on se quitte,
Et qui nous en fait du coulis de framboise.

L'impudique homme

Qui fait sa recette
Avec l'album
Qu'on lit tout seul, d'habitude, en cachette,
Qui lui, lui, lui,
Alors que nous, nous, nous,
Qui roule, roule, roule,
Qui est tout en haut et puis boum, il s'écroule.
C'est le marchand de sirop,
Marchand de sirop
Marchand de sirop
Marchand de sirop
Marchand de sirop
Marchand de sirop

Bla bla bla
Ton bon profil
Clown geignard
On en a rien à se couer de tes idées noires
Plaf t'étales
Ton sale linge sale

Pour qui tu te prends
Mais t'es qu'une bassine à bassiner le temps
Qui s'aime, s'aime, s'aime
Sous les pots de crème
Qui confiture
En croyant faire de la littérature
Qui âme strip-tease
Qui dollars please
Ce Pan Léon
Qui croit des fois qu'il est Napoléon
C'est le marchand de sirop
Marchand de sirop
Marchand de sirop
Marchand de sirop
Marchand de sirop
Marchand de sirop

Mais on est tous pareils
Besoin d'être le soleil
Je veux tout tout tout
Qu'on me voit toujours partout beaucoup sur tout
Souterrain on vit pas bien
On est tous Charlot
On est tous des petits marchands de sirop
Des marchands de sirop
Marchands de sirop
