Le chat de la voisine

Yves Montand Yves Montand

The Neighbor's Cat

The neighbor's cat
Who eats good food
And purrs loudly
On a beautiful comforter
The neighbor's cat
Who licks its lips
With chicken, foie gras
And doesn't chase rats
Meow, meow
How touching is the cat's song
Purr, purr
Long live the cat, long live the cat

I won't draw the man and his agony
The child taking first steps freezing in its nest
I won't talk about the soldier who's afraid
To trade a leg for a medal
The old man rejected in the hunger trash
I won't talk about it, better this little refrain

The neighbor's cat
Who eats good food
And purrs loudly
On a beautiful comforter
The neighbor's cat
Who licks its lips
With chicken, foie gras
And doesn't chase rats
Meow, meow
How touching is the cat's song
Purr, purr
Long live the cat, long live the cat

I won't be the one to spoil the lunch circle
To praise the sweat burning on foreheads
I won't talk about the crying worker
Losing his dead fingers in the fields of labor
About the faded young girl before loving
I won't talk about it, it's better to glorify

The neighbor's cat
Who eats good food
And purrs loudly
On a beautiful comforter
The neighbor's cat
Who licks its lips
With chicken, foie gras
And doesn't chase rats
Meow, meow
How touching is the cat's song
Purr, purr
Long live the cat, long live the cat...
