Lyrics
L’alcool de bois
Ça rend fou
Celui qui en boit
Il est fou
La gueule de bois
Ce n’est pas tout
Le lendemain matin, tu n’y verras plus du tout
Mais Les Incorruptibles s’intéressaient à lui
Dans tout Chicago ils cherchaient ses distill’ries
Les Incorruptibles pour tous les moyens
Cherchaient à le coincer pour lui briser les reins.
L’alcool de riz
C’est pareil
Tu s’ras surpris
Au réveil
Mon pauvre ami
Un conseil
Si tu tiens à la vie, tu peux jeter ta bouteille.
Mais Les Incorruptibles s’intéressaient à lui
Dans tout Chicago ils cherchaient ses distill’ries
Les Incorruptibles pour tous les moyens
Cherchaient à le coincer pour lui briser les reins.
Tous ces alcools
Prohibés
C’est du pétrole
Raffiné
Du vitriol
Destiné
A te faire tomber raide avant même d’y goûter.
Mais Les Incorruptibles s’intéressaient à lui
Et un beau jour ils firent sauter ses distill’ries
Oui Les Incorruptibles afin d’arroser ça
S’envoyèrent au milk-bar du coin devinez quoi? …
Des ice-creams soda.
Lyrics translation
Wood alcohol
It's crazy.
The one who drinks from it
He's crazy
Hangover
That's not all
The next morning, you won't see it at all
But The Incorruptibles were interested in him
All over Chicago they were looking for his distilleries.
The incorruptible for all means
They were trying to nail him to break his kidneys.
Rice alcohol
It's the same
You'll be surprised
On waking
My poor friend
Advice
If you care about life, you can throw away your bottle.
But The Incorruptibles were interested in him
All over Chicago they were looking for his distilleries.
The incorruptible for all means
They were trying to nail him to break his kidneys.
All these alcohols
Prohibit
It's oil.
Refined
Of vitriol
Meant
To make you fall steep before you even taste it.
But The Incorruptibles were interested in him
And one fine day they blew his distilleries
Yes The Incorruptibles in order to water it
They went to the local milk bar. guess what? …
Ice cream soda.
