We sang about the Eiffel Tower
Montmartre and then the Javel district
Paris, it's big, it's beautiful, it's crazy
But that's because there is below
A brave man of an employee
Who in the morning on the platform
Does complicated "eights"
METRO!
It's the news at eight francs
That we read from end to end while driving
Hindered by a hat
METRO!
It's the lady who moves
To see herself in the ice cream
With an indifferent air
METRO!
The train conductor who gets bored
And plays on his trumpet
A little funny tune
It's the METRO!
The face of the Capital
Is not that of rue Pigalle
That's money, gambling, love
But everyday life:
It's the dazed man
Who gets up and then shouts:
"Damn, I'm going down here
But wait, but wait! "
It's at six o'clock in the evening
At Saint-Lazare station
Leaving the offices
METRO!
The trottins chatting
The lovers who kiss each other
The lady and her knitting
METRO!
The girl with such sweet eyes
That we would follow anywhere
But who gets off too soon
It's the METRO!
Roll, always roll
Your sorrows, your loves
Your everyday joys
METRO!
Take you to the meeting
The happy, the jealous
From one end to the other end
METRO!
Who goes, which returns
It's the Parisian blood
Always lively and new
METRO!
What makes Paris
Yesterday as today
Is always as beautiful
It's the METRO!
What makes Paris
Yesterday as today
Is still as beautiful
It's the METRO!
The stations, bright colors:
Biscuits, laundry
Small, big signs
METRO!
Meet at “Glacière”
Right in front of the first ones
See you tomorrow my coco
Don't forget!
All eyes in the car
Fixed on a round g'nou
Who is discovering a little too much
METRO!
The plumber's apprentice
Who puts us on our feet
His thirty kilo bag
It's the METRO!
