Oh, yeah
My mother told me, "Antoine, get your hair cut"
I told her "mother, in 20 years, if you want
I'm not keeping it to get noticed
Nor because I find it beautiful, but because I like it"

Oh, yeah
The other day, I was listening to the radio when I woke up
It was Yvette Horner playing the accordion
Your accordion tires me, Yvette, if you played the clarinet instead

Oh, yeah
My best friend, if you knew him
You wouldn't be able to part with him
The other day, he wasn't very smart
He took a laxative, instead of taking the train

Oh, yeah

Oh, yeah
With my little cousin who is ten years old
We were watching Big Teddy Bear on television
To Teddy Bear he said, "good night, my man"
He went to dance The Jerk at the Palladium

Oh, yeah

The judge said to Jules, "you have killed"
"Yes, I killed my wife, yet I loved her"
The judge said to Jules, "you will have 20 years"
Jules said, "when you love, you are always 20 years old"

Oh, yeah

Everything should change all the time, the world would be much more fun
We would see planes in the corridors of the subway
And Johnny Hallyday in a cage at Medrano

Oh, yeah

Oh, yeah
If I wear flowered shirts
It's because I'm ahead by two, or three lengths
It's just a matter of season, yours still only have buttons

Oh, yeah
I received a letter from the presidency
Asking me, "Antoine, do you have common sense
How to enrich the country?"
"Put the pill on sale, in the Monoprix"

Oh, yeah
