Monsieur lenoble est très triste
Mr. Lenoble is very sad
Depuis que sa femme l'a quitté
Since his wife left him
Avec un tout jeune artiste
With a very young artist
Qu'elle a connu cet été
What she experienced this summer
Et monsieur lenoble écoute
And Mr. Lenoble listens
La mélodie qu'elle aimait
The melody she loved
Ces quelques notes, goutte à goutte
These few notes, drip
L'empoisonnent à jamais
Poison him forever
La-la, la-la, la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la-la
T'as pas profité de ta chance, mon ami, mon ami
You didn't take advantage of your chance, my friend, my friend
Tu avais trop de confiance, c'est fini, c'est fini
You had too much confidence, it's over, it's over
T'avais une femme merveilleuse, si jolie, si jolie
You had a wonderful woman, so pretty, so pretty
T'as pas su la rendre heureuse
You didn't make her happy
T'es tout seul, elle est partie
You're on your own, she's gone
Monsieur lenoble raisonne
Mr. Lenoble reasons
Il pense à tout ce qu'il a fait
He thinks about everything he's done
Ses intentions étaient bonnes
His intentions were good
Même s'il n'était pas parfait
Even if it wasn't perfect
P't-être pas très bon caractère
Maybe not very good character
Il s'emportait pour un rien
He was getting carried away for nothing
Mais au bureau, ses confrères
But in the office, his colleagues
Le trouvaient un homme très bien
He found a very good man
Très bien, très bien, très bien
Very good, very good, very good
T'as pas profité de ta chance, mon ami, mon ami
You didn't take advantage of your chance, my friend, my friend
Tu avais trop de confiance, c'est fini, c'est fini
You had too much confidence, it's over, it's over
T'avais une femme merveilleuse, si jolie, si jolie
You had a wonderful woman, so pretty, so pretty
T'as pas su la rendre heureuse
You didn't make her happy
T'es tout seul, elle est partie
You're on your own, she's gone
Monsieur lenoble se mouche
Mr. Lenoble blows his nose
Met sa chemise de nuit
Put on his nightgown
Ouvre le gaz et se couche
Opens the gas and goes to bed
Demain, tout sera fini
Tomorrow, it'll all be over
Et monsieur lenoble pense
And Mr. Lenoble thinks
À celle qu'il adorait
To the one he adored
Et monsieur lenoble pense
And Mr. Lenoble thinks
À celle qu'il adorait
To the one he adored
T'as pas profité de ta chance, mon ami
You didn't take advantage of your chance, my friend
Tu avais trop de confiance, c'est fini
You had too much confidence, it's over
T'avais une femme merveilleuse, si jolie
You had a wonderful wife, so pretty
T'as pas su la rendre heureuse
You didn't make her happy
T'es tout seul, elle est partie
You're on your own, she's gone
T'as pas su la rendre heureuse
You didn't make her happy
Tu avais trop de confiance, trop de confiance
You had too much confidence, too much trust
Trop de confiance, confiance, confiance
Too much confidence, confidence, confidence
