Artist  : Les negresses vertes 
Song : Le pere magloire
 
Idiot, fou, epileptique                 Idiot,
fool, epileptic
Grand-pere Magloire                     Grandpa
Myglory
Ne suce pas de l'eau qui pique          doesn't
suck the water that stings
Le Perrier lui file des aigreurs        Perrier
gives him heartburn
Grand-pere Magloire a mal au coeur      Grandpa
Myglory is sick at heart
C'est ainsi qu'il perd la raison        It's thus
that he loses reason
Quand grand-pere arrete de boire        When
grandpa stops drinking
Ce cochon se transforme                 This
bastard turns into an
  en vieux con                            an old
asshole
Non, non grand-pere                     No, no
grandpa
Ne t'mets pas en colere                 Don't get
angry
Bois un canon,                          Drink a
cannon
Dans le fond t'as p'tet raison.         At the
bottom you're maybe right.
L'eau t'rend fada,                      Water
makes you barmy
Grincheux et pas sympa,                 grumpy
and not nice
Mais tu radotes                         But you
talk a load of drivel
Quand tu pisses dans tes bottes.        When you
piss in your boots.
Idiot, fou, epileptique,                Idiot,
fool, epileptic
Grand-pere Magloire                     Grandpa
Myglory
Si il touche a la badouwa               If he
touches the sparkling water
Le grand-pere Magloire a mal au foie    Grandpa
is sick in the liver
C'est ainsi qu'il deraisonne            It's thus
that he loses reason
Quand grand-pere stoppe de cuver        When
grandpa's off the wine
Il ne r'connait plus personne           He no
longer recognizes anyone
Et c'est bubonne qu'il bastonne         It's the
wifey that he starts hitting
Non, non grand-pere                     No, no
grandpa
Ne t'mets pas en colere                 Don't get
angry
Bois un canon,                          Drink a
cannon,
Dans le fond t'as p'tet raison.         At the
bottom you're maybe right.
L'eau t'rend fada,                      Water
makes you barmy
Grincheux et pas sympa,                 grumpy
and not nice
Mais tu radotes                         But you
talk a load of drivel
Quand tu pisses dans tes bottes.        When you
piss in your boots.
Idiot, fou, epileptique                 Idiot,
fool, epileptic
Grand-pere Magloire                     Grandpa
Myglory
A un medecin pas catholique             has a
weird doctor
Qui lui ordonne du valium               who puts
him on Valium
Grand-pere Magloire n'est plus          Grandpa
Myglory is no longer
  un homme                                a man
Mais v'la l'Beaujolpif nouveau          But look,
some cheap wine
Grand-pere craque et boit un verre      Grandpa
cracks and drinks a glass
On l'fout en maison de repos            Off he
goes to a convalescent home
Les psychiatres lui font la peau        The
psychiatrists get his ass
Non, non grand-pere                     No, no
grandpa
Ne t'mets pas en colere                 Don't get
angry
Bois un canon,                          Drink a
cannon,
Dans le fond t'as p'tet raison.         At the
bottom you're maybe right.
L'eau t'rend fada,                      Water
makes you barmy
Grincheux et pas sympa,                 grumpy
and not nice
Mais tu radotes                         But you
talk a load of drivel
Quand tu pisses dans tes bottes.        When you
piss in your boots.
Idiot, fou, epileptique,                Idiot,
fool, epileptic
Pov'grand-pere,                         Poor
grandpa
La loi est meurtriere                   The law
is a murderer
J'leve mon canon                        I raise
my cannon
A toi et mort aux cons.                 to you
and death to the bastards.
Vive la java                            Long live
the java waltz
Et les blouses blanches basta           And the
white coats basta
Et l'on radote,                         And one
prattles on
En chialant un vieux pote,              while
blubbering an old jar
Idiot, fou, epileptique.                Idiot,
fool, epileptic.
