Le Roi des cons
Georges Brassens
The King of Assholes
No doubt, she's not built
No doubt, she's not built
On sand, her dynasty
On sand, her dynasty
There's little chance we'll
Dethrone the king of assholes
He can sleep, this sovereign
He can sleep, this sovereign
On both ears, serene
On both ears, serene
There's little chance we'll
Dethrone the king of assholes
I, you, he, she, we, you, they
I, you, he, she, we, you, they
Everyone follows him, docile
Everyone follows him, docile
There's little chance we'll
Dethrone the king of assholes
It's possible, moreover
It's possible, moreover
To dislodge the Shah of Iran
To dislodge the Shah of Iran
But there's little chance we'll
Dethrone the king of assholes
That one day we'll say: it's over
That one day we'll say: it's over
To the little king of Jordan
To the little king of Jordan
But there's little chance we'll
Dethrone the king of assholes
That in Abyssinia we reject
That in Abyssinia we reject
The king of kings, the good Negus
The king of kings, the good Negus
But there's little chance we'll
Dethrone the king of assholes
That, to a fandango tune
That, to a fandango tune
We dismiss the old Franco
We dismiss the old Franco
But there's little chance we'll
Dethrone the king of assholes
That the crown of England
That the crown of England
Tonight, tomorrow, rolls on the ground
Tonight, tomorrow, rolls on the ground
But there's little chance we'll
Dethrone the king of assholes
That, that's been seen in the past
That, that's been seen in the past
Marianne be overthrown
Marianne be overthrown
But there's little chance we'll
Dethrone the king of assholes
