Lyrics
Cette histoire qui se passe en Chine aurait très bien pu se passer en Europe
Si vous ne me croyez pas, alors lisez attentivement votre journal
Au tribunal de Shanghai l’accusé c’est Ping Pong Li Pour lui voler ses bijoux il a tué Madame Shang Phi
Soyez indulgents et cléments réclame son avocat
Mon client coupable, honorable est atteint de coryza
Au tribunal de Shanghai acquittez ce Ping Pong Li Car cet enfant de Shanghai a souffert étant petit
Chez lui pas d’assiette, ni d’baguettes, pour pouvoir manger son riz
On volait ses billes, en famille, car son père y jouait aussi
Au tribunal de Shanghai plaignez fort ce Ping Pong Li Quand il a vu les bijoux d’un seul coup il a jauni
Quelle provocation, ces millions pour un distingué client
Et Madame Shang Phi, rabougrie, n’en avait plus pour longtemps
Ce noble fils de Shanghai m’a promis de s’amender
De rechercher du travail et de ne plus recommencer
Alors c’est convenu, vous ne tuez plus et le chinois répondit «non»
Les juges en émoi, dirent ma foi, dans le fond c’est un brave garçon
Et Ping Pong Li acquitté et chaudement félicité
Qu’allez vous faire, lui dit-on, en sortant de la prison
Ping Pong Li sourit et leur dit: «Avec bijoux Li Shang Phi
Chaise longue et pastis, jolie fille, pénardise toute ma vie»
… Monte Carlo
… Cadillac
… baccara
… gros cigare
Lyrics translation
This story that is happening in China could very well have happened in Europe
If you do not believe me, then carefully read your diary
In Shanghai court the accused is Ping Pong Li to steal his jewelry he killed Mrs. Shang Phi
Be lenient and lenient demands his lawyer
My guilty, honorable client is suffering from coryza
In Shanghai court acquit this Ping pong Li because this Shanghai child suffered being small
At home no plate, no chopsticks, to eat his rice
We used to steal his balls, as a family, because his father played there too
At the Shanghai court strongly complain about this Ping Pong Li when he saw the jewelry in one shot it turned yellow
What a provocation, these millions for a distinguished client
And Madame Shang Phi, stunted, did not have for long
This noble son of Shanghai promised me to amend
Looking for work and never starting again
So it's agreed, you no longer kill and the Chinese replied " No»
The judges were moved, said My faith, deep down he is a good boy
And Ping Pong Li acquitted and warmly congratulated
What are you going to do, they tell him, when you get out of prison
Ping Pong Li smiled and said to them: "with Li Shang Phi jewelry
Chaise longue and pastis, pretty girl, pangs all my life»
... Monte Carlo
… Cadillac
… baccarat
... big cigar
