Le téléfon [English translation]

Bernadette, is great

And her cousin is divine

But her cousin, is unhealthy

I would even say that he is good for nothing

Noémie is very pretty

Less than Zoé, but more than Nathalie

Anatole is frivolous

Mr Gaston is at the telephone

Gaston; here's the telephone that rings

But there is never someone to answer it

Gaston; here's the telephone that rings

But there is never someone to answer it

Marie-Louise, it is exquisite

Marie-Thérèse, it is obese

Marie-Berthe, is expert

Via her aunt Artémise's enterprise.

Edouard smokes the cigar

And Léonard has a black beard

Léontine cooks the food

Mr Gaston is at the telephone

Gaston; here's the telephone that rings

But there is never someone to answer it

Gaston; here's the telephone that rings

But there is never someone to answer it

Non, non, non, non, non, non, non, non, non,

Gaston the telephone rings

Maybe... only if it is important
