Chansons les gentils, les méchants [English translation]

What is it that is very gentle ? The gentle ones.

What is it that is very nasty ? The nasty ones.

Who has the best prices ? (The gentle ones.)

Who sleeps at the last row ? (The nasty ones.)

Who saves up money ? (The gentle ones.)

And who wastes its money ? (The nasty ones.)

Which one sells guns ? The gentle ones.

And which one is found in front ? The nasty ones.

It's like a permanent Punch and Jody show,

and long live the school and long live the regiment.

All the world laughing and all the world thinks about it.

But, yet,

For who do you have feelings of antipathy ? (The gentle ones.)

For whom do you form a strong thought ? (The nasty ones.)

It's work, family, motherland. (The gentle ones.)

It's the retiring at the age of twenty. (The nasty ones.)

Oh, papada, papada, papada, papada, papada.

They make the love at the saturdays. (The gentle ones.)

They make this not able to take away. (The nasty ones.)

They will puncture the blessed ass. (The gentle ones.)

They will puncture the pleased heat. (The nasty ones.)

The gentle nasty ones.
