Juliette Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cette nuit, la baronne s´est plainte auprès d´moi
Paraît que vos chaussettes ne sentent pas la rose
Que vous portez le même slip depuis plusieurs mois
Et récupérâtes sur l´un de vos potes
Un préservatif pendant qu´vous soupiez
À l´avenir Roger, plus de vieilles capotes
Changez donc de slip et lavez vos pieds
Quant à vous, Gaston, je vous vois bien triste
Un de ces messieurs aurait-il boudé
Sous votre soutane de séminariste
Vos appâts charmants et bodybuildés ?
C´est qu´vous oubliâtes sous votre défroque
De porter guêpière et bas à trou-trou
Mon très cher Gaston, soyez d´votre époque
Un curé sans linge, ça n´vaut pas un clou
Les gigues qu´ont du style et de la pointure
Monsieur Anatole, ne s´avisent pas
Sous prétexte qu´il y a séance de torture
D´en profiter pour doubler un repas
Et tout en fouettant l´généralissime
Ne s´font pas monter bière et croque-monsieur
Anatole vous baissez dans mon estime
Ou l´on est morfal, ou l´on est vicieux
Je soupçonnais bien quelque préférence
De vot´ part, jeune homme, mais vous abusez
Ce n´est pas parce que la préfète est rance
Qu´il fallait en rire et n’point la baiser
Nous avions convenu que sous l´nom de Simone
Vous sacrifieriez à Lesbos, sinon
Faudra m´ rembourser le traitement aux hormones
Et quitter la place, mon pauvre Simon
Même vous, Narcisio, n´êtes pas sans reproche
J´ai perdu tantôt une plombe à chercher,
Avant d´ la trouver au fond de vot´poche,
La clef de l´armoire aux godemichés
Lâchez donc la clef et vos mines candides
Vous êtes débutant, j´comprends vos raisons
Mais il est fâcheux qu´cette armoire soit vide
Quand vous vous exercez seul à la maison
Enfin vous, Patrick, vos collègues me disent
Qu´dans l´orgie romaine vous fûtes gnangnan
Que vous refusâtes diverses gourmandises
Vous comportant en premier communiant
Quoi, me dites-vous, c´est qu´vous reconnûtes
Votre propre père parmi les voyeurs ?
Patrick, vous n´ferez jamais une vraie pute
Comme le craint vot´ pauv´ papa, d´ailleurs
Bref, résumons-nous, je fus trop gentille
Mais ça va changer, j´ vous l´dis, mes garçons
Puisque vous cherchez, comme les pires des filles,
A fout´ le bordel dans notre boxon
Plus de dilettantisme, d´humeurs ni de fraude
Je veux du rendement, pas d´ la bamboula
Messieurs ! Tous à poil ! La nuit sera chaude !
J´ouvre le salon
Les clients sont là
The lyrics of "Remontrances" by Juliette can be interpreted as a humorous and light-hearted critique of certain behaviors and attitudes. The song is addressed to different individuals, each representing a different stereotype or group. Juliette starts by addressing "Mon petit Roger" and complains about his hygiene, suggesting that he needs to change his underwear and wash his feet. She then moves on to "Gaston," possibly a priest or someone in a similar position, and advises him to embrace modernity and not neglect his appearance, emphasizing the importance of wearing attractive lingerie.
Next, she addresses "Monsieur Anatole," describing him as someone who takes advantage of any opportunity to indulge in pleasures, even during a session of torture. Juliette suggests that his behavior has lowered her opinion of him, pointing out that one can either be gluttonous or vicious. She then turns her attention to a young man ("jeune homme") whom she suspects has preferences different from what he has implied. Juliette reminds him of their agreement to engage in certain activities, warning that if he doesn't adhere to it, he will have to repay his hormone treatment expenses and leave his position.
Continuing her critique, Juliette addresses "Narcisio" and reveals an incident where she had to search for the key to a cabinet of sex toys, only to find it in his pocket. She advises him to let go of his innocent demeanor and acknowledges that he is still a beginner, but also expresses disappointment that the cabinet was empty when he practices alone. Finally, she mentions "Patrick" and mocks him for being too hesitant and "gnangnan," refusing various indulgences and behaving like a first communicant. She mocks his supposed recognition of his own father among the onlookers, suggesting that he will never become a genuine prostitute, as his father fears.
In the final lines, Juliette summarizes that she has been too lenient in the past, but now things will change. She demands efficiency and no more fooling around, comparing her "boxon" (mess) to a bordel (brothel). She concludes by announcing that she is opening the salon for business, indicating that the clients are waiting.
Overall, "Remontrances" can be seen as a satirical and playful commentary on societal norms and expectations, challenging stereotypes and highlighting the absurdity of certain behaviors.
