L'ocean est profond
Michel Fugain Lyrics


L'océan est profond,
Le poisson se fait rare,
Et le marin attend
Le chalut qui remonte
Et la bière du soir
Filles blondes
Le ciel gronde
Préparez vos mouchoirs

Le poisson se fait rare
Et sur la mer d'Iroise
L'ouragan prend son quart.
Les bateaux que l'on croise
Sont des coffres d'or noir.
Filles rousses
Le vent pousse
Priez pour nous revoir

Plus de raies,
Plus de bars,
La faute des longs filets
Si le thon fait la gueule,
Si nos femmes en pétard,
Au retour, nous engueulent sur le quai

L'océan est profond,
Le marin prend des cuites,
Le poisson est pané
Et la nuit on habite
L'hôtel des culs tournés.
C'est la mer,
La misère
Du pêcheur empêché.
