Le Gros Boris - Dominique A

A trop le dire le temps passe

Et Boris se sent vieux

Dans l’heure qui suit son oeil tourne

Boris est tombe

Mène droit chez l’herboriste

Boris a l’air d’aller mieux

Celle qui l’a sauve le couve

Et Boris en rajoute un peu

Celle qui l’a sauve le quitte

Et Boris avec effroi

Voit passer des jours terribles

Qu’il ne comprends pas

Des jours hargneux le poursuivent

Ces vieux jours, ce sont ceux la

Un retour chez l’herboriste

Et Boris a l’air moins triste

Boris et sa carabine

Font des cartons sur un chat

Mais nul ne s’en formalise

Boris en est la

C’est un sale guerre la guerre lasse

Contre la montre aux aguets

Celle qui mène a tant de frais

Saying it too much time flies

And Boris feels old

In the hour that follows his eye turns

Boris has fallen

Leads straight to the herbalist

Boris seems to be doing better

The one who saved him smolders

And Boris adds a bit

The one who saved him leaves him

And Boris with dread

See terrible days pass

That he doesn't understand

Surly days pursue him

Those old days are the ones

A return to the herbalist

And Boris looks less sad

Boris and his rifle

Cards on a cat

But no one cares

Boris is the one

It's a dirty war the weary war

Against the clock on the lookout

The one that leads to so many costs
