Lyrics
Maudit
Soit le père de l'épouse
Du forgeron qui forgea
Le fer de la cognée
Avec laquelle
Le bûcheron abattit le chêne
Dans lequel
On sculpta le lit
Où fut engendré l’arrière-grand-père
De l’homme qui conduisait la voiture
Dans laquelle ta mère
Rencontra ton père
Lyrics translation
Curse
Either the wife's father
Of the blacksmith who forged
The iron of the bang
With which
The lumberjack shoots down the Oak
In which
We carved the bed
Where was born the great-grandfather
From the man who was driving the car
In which your mother
Met Your father
