Écoute les orgues
Listen to the organs
Elles jouent pour toi
They play for you
Il est terrible cet air là
That look is terrible
J'espère que tu aimes
I hope you like
C'est assez beau non
It's quite beautiful isn't it
C'est le requiem pour un con
It's the requiem for a jerk
Je l'ai composé spécialement pour toi
I composed it especially for you
A ta mémoire de scélérat
To your villainous memory
C'est un joli thème
It's a nice theme
Tu ne trouves pas
You do not find
Semblable à toi même
Similar to yourself
Pauvre con
poor jerk
Voici les orgues
Here are the organs
Qui remettent ça
Who put it back
Faut qu't'apprennes par cœur cet air là
You have to learn this tune by heart
Que tu n'aies pas même
that you don't even have
Une hésitation
a hesitation
Sur le requiem pour un con
On the requiem for a jerk
Quoi tu me regardes
What are you looking at me
Tu n'apprécies pas
You don't appreciate
Mais qu'est-ce qu'y a là dedans
But what's in there
Qui t'plaît pas
Who don't you like
Pour moi c'est idem
For me it's the same
Que ça t'plaise ou non
Whether you like it or not
J'te l'rejoue quand même
I'll play it again anyway
Pauvre con
poor jerk
Écoute les orgues
Listen to the organs
Elles jouent pour toi
They play for you
Il est terrible cet air là
That look is terrible
J'espère que tu aimes
I hope you like
C'est assez beau non
It's quite beautiful isn't it
C'est le requiem pour un con
It's the requiem for a jerk
Je l'ai composé spécialement pour toi
I composed it especially for you
A ta mémoire de scélérat
To your villainous memory
Sur ta figure blême
On your pale face
Aux murs des prisons
On the prison walls
J'inscrirai moi-même : 'Pauvre con'
I will write myself: 'Poor con'
