Lyrics
Deux grands yeux noirs étonnés
Un minois chiffonné
Gigi,
Une taille faite autour
Ne sachant rien d' l’amour
Gigi,
A son entrée dans le monde
Elle jouait encore à la ronde
Ma tante ti re li re li re
Comme toutes les gosses de Paris
Elle avait de l’esprit
Gigi,
Et ses tantes le savaient bien
Qui élevaient pour son bien
Gigi,
La grondant quand la gamine
Chantait des rondes enfantines
Ma tante ti re li re lau
Elles lui enseignaient toutes les façons
D’aguicher les garçons
Les plus riches
Comment on montre un mollet rond
En troussant son jupon
Sans quitter pour ça l’air innocent
Que l’on apprécie tant
Chez les femmes
Comment il faut farder ses joues
Et porter ses bijoux
Ses tantes étaient naguère
Des femmes dites légères,
Quand on a l’esprit d' famille
Il faut plaire de mère en fille
Avec un monsieur très bien
Qu’elle appelait son cousin
Gigi,
Elle patinait sur le lac
Et jouait au trictrac
Gigi,
Elle serait comme une reine
Aurait châteaux en Touraine
Ma tante ti re li re li re
Elle écoutait sans rien dire
Et poussait des soupirs
Gigi,
Non elle n’avait pas rêvé
D' t’nir le haut du pavé
Gigi,
Elle espérait autre chose
Dans ses rêves bleus et roses
Ma tante ti re li re lau
Elle regardait le cousin en coin
Sans avoir l’air de rien
Et c’est bête
Mais aucun autre homme vraiment
Ne lui plaisait autant
A quoi bon ne penser qu'à l’amour?
Ses tantes, chaque jour
Lui répètent
Tu es, Gigi, ne l’oublie pas,
De celles qu’on n'épouse pas
Elle pleura toute une nuit
Décida d'être à lui
Gigi,
Cabinet particulier
En haut d’un escalier
Tant pis,
Mais il la trouva si belle
Qu’il la ramena chez elle
Et qu’il épousa Gigi,
Ding !
Robe blanche à la mairie
Dong !
C’est Gigi qui se marie.
Lyrics translation
Two big black eyes amazed
A crumpled pussy
Gigi,
One size made around
Knowing nothing about love
Gigi,
At its entry into the world
She was still playing the rounds.
But tante ti re li re li re
Like all the kids in Paris
She had spirit
Gigi,
And his aunts knew it well
Who raised for his good
Gigi,
The scolding when the kid
Sang childish rounds
But tante ti re li re lau
They taught him all the ways
To chase the boys
The richest
How to show a round calf
Wearing her petticoat
Without leaving for that look innocent
That we appreciate so much
In women
How to blush her cheeks
And wear her jewelry
His aunts were once
So-called Light Women,
When you have a family spirit
It is necessary to please from mother to daughter
With a gentleman very well
That she called her cousin
Gigi,
She was skating on the lake
And played trictrac
Gigi,
She'd be like a queen
Would have castles in Touraine
But tante ti re li re li re
She listened without saying anything
And sighed
Gigi,
No she had not dreamed
T'nir the top of the cobblestone
Gigi,
She hoped for something else
In his blue and pink dreams
But tante ti re li re lau
She looked at the cousin in the corner
Without looking like anything
And it's stupid
But no other man really
Didn't like her so much
What's the point of thinking only of love?
His aunts, every day
Repeat to him
You are, Gigi, don't forget it,
The ones you don't marry
She cried all night
Decided to be his
Gigi,
Private practice
Up a staircase
Never mind.,
But he found her so beautiful
That he brought her home
And that he married Gigi,
Ding !
White dress at the town hall
Dong !
Gigi's getting married.
