French text
Une puce gentille
Chez un prince logeait.
Comme sa propre fille,
Le brave homme l’aimait,
Et l’histoire l’assure,
A son tailleur un jour
Lui fit prendre mesure
Pour un habit de cour.
L’animal, plein de joie
Des qu’il se vit paré
D’or de velours de soie,
Et de croix décoré,
Fit venir de province
Ses frères et ses sœurs
Qui, par ordre du prince
Devinrent grands seigneurs.
Mais ce qui fut bien pire,
C’est que les gens de cour,
Sans en oser rien dire,
Se grattaient tout le jour.
Cruelle politique!
Ah! plaignons leur destin,
Et, dès qu’une nous pique,
Ecrasons-la soudain!
Chorus
Ah! Ah! Ah! Bravo! bravo! bravo!
Oui, écrasons-la soudain!
