N’est pas Gainsbourg qui veutBaudelaire ou Rimbaud Ni poète maudit Apollinaire ou Poe Suffit pas d’être saoul Ni de paraître fou C’est pas une question de shoots Ni de sexe ni de look
N’est pas Gainsbourg qui veut Baudelaire ou Rimbaud Ni poète maudit Apollinaire ou Poe Seulement savoir pourquoi Tout brûle autour de soi Pourquoi ces châteaux de sable Qu’engloutissent les vagues N’est pas Gainsbourg qui veut Baudelaire ou Rimbaud Ni poète maudit Apollinaire ou Poe Seulement savoir pourquoi Faire et puis tout défaire Et mettre tout à l’envers Avec la même foi
N’est pas Gainsbourg qui veut Baudelaire ou Rimbaud Ni poète maudit Apollinaire ou Poe Seulement savoir pourquoi Là-haut sur son étoile Soufflent les vents du désert Qui brûlent la peau et l’âme
English translation :
THERE'S ONLY GAINSBOURG
There ‘s only Gainsbourg
Baudelaire or Rimbaud Neither the “poète maudit” Apollinaire or Poe It’s not enough to be drunk No appear to be crazy It's not a question of shooting up No of sex no of appearances
There ‘s only Gainsbourg
Baudelaire or Rimbaud Neither the “poète maudit” Apollinaire or Poe Just knowing why Everything burns around you Why these sand castles swallowed up by the waves There ‘s only Gainsbourg
Baudelaire or Rimbaud Neither the “poète maudit” Apollinaire or Poe Just knowing why Make and un-make And putting everything the other way round With the same conviction
There ‘s only Gainsbourg
Baudelaire or Rimbaud Neither the “poète maudit” Apollinaire or Poe Just knowing why Up there on his star the desert winds blow burning skin and soul

La vie n'est pas facile, pour une gamine de seize ansqui n'a plus de famille, et encor' moins d'argent,Elle coup' et coud toute la semaine à l'atelier des mouchoirs,mais le dimanche elle est reine de la danse au bal du soir.
Tourne vire, virevolte, la belle d'un pied léger,tourne vire, virevolte, c'est venu le temps d'aimer.
Elle a jolie frimousse, et le coeur innocent,des rêves qui la poussent vers un prince charmant,et c'est en mai qu'il lui arrive, l'invite pour un pas de deux D'une valse il l'enivre et les voilà amoureux.
Ils se sont mariés, ont brûlé la belle saisonla guerre est déclarée, il doit par-tir au front!A la gare ils se quittent en agitant leur mou-choir,"Je reviendrai bien vit' et je t'écrirai chaque soir"
Sur le chemin des Dames, le voilà soudain foudroyé,elle n'a pas assez de larmes pour son malheur noyer,mais pour la vie jolie grisette tu ne peux t'enfermer, dimanche à la guinguette tu retourneras danser.

Elle avait sous sa toque de martre,
Sur la butte Montmartre,
Un petit air innocent. On l'appelait rose, elle était belle,
À sentait bon la fleur nouvelle,
Rue Saint-Vincent. Elle avait pas connu son père, Elle avait plus de mère, Et depuis 1900,A’ demeurait chez sa vieille aïeule Où qu'à s'élevait comme ça, toute seule, Rue Saint-Vincent. À travaillait déjà pour vivre Et les soirs de givre, Dans le froid noir et glaçant, Son petit fichu sur les épaules, À rentrait par la rue des Saules, Rue Saint-Vincent.
Elle voyait dans les nuit gelées, La nappe étoilée, Et la lune en croissant Qui brillait, blanche et fatidique Sur la petite croix de la basilique, Rue Saint-Vincent. L'été, par les chauds crépuscules, A rencontré Jules, Qu'était si caressant, Qu'à restait la soirée entière, Avec lui près du vieux cimetière, Rue Saint-Vincent. Et je petit Jules était de la tierce Qui soutient la gerce, Aussi l'adolescent, Voyant qu'elle marchait pantre, D'un coup de surin lui troua le ventre, Rue Saint-Vincent. Quand ils l'ont couché sur la planche, Elle était toute blanche, Même qu'en l'ensevelissant, Les croque-morts disaient que la pauvre gosse Était crevé le soir de sa noce, Rue Saint-Vincent. Elle avait sous sa toque de martre,
Sur la butte Montmartre, Un petit air innocent. On l'appelait rose, elle était belle, À sentait bon la fleur nouvelle, Rue Saint-Vincent.
English translation : RUE SAINT VINCENT She had not known her fatherHer mother was goneAnd since 1900She lived in her old grandma’ s houseWhere she took care of herself She was already working for livingAnd on frosty evenings In the black freezing coldHer little shawl aroun her shouldersShe came home by the rue des SaulesRue Saint-Vincent. In these frozen nightsShe saw the curtain of the starsAnd the crescent moonShining white and fatefulOn the little croce of the basilicaRue Saint-Vincent. By the warm summer twilightShe would meet Jules,Who was so tenderShe would stay all evening longWith him near the old cemeteryRue Saint-Vincent. And the young Jules was a good-for-nothingPimping the girlsWhen this kidSaw she was not playing the gameHe stabbed her in the stomachRue Saint-Vincent. When they laid her outShe was all white.The undertakers burying herSaid that the poor childCroaked on her wedding day
Beneath her marten hatOn the Butte Montmartre,She had an innocent little air.She was called Rose, she was beautifulWith a scent like a young flowerRue Saint-Vincent.
