Les Poissons (Remastered 2014)

Nouvelle cuisine

Les Champes Elysses

Maurice Chevalier

Les poissons, les poissons

How I love les poissons

Love to chop and to serve little fish

First I cut of zeir heads

Zen I pull out zeir bones

Ah mais oui ca c'est toujours delish

Les poissons, les poissons

Hee hee hee, haw haw haw

With ze cleaver I hack zem in two

I pull out what's inside

And I serve it up friend

God, I love little fishes, don't you

Here's something for tempting ze palate

Prepared in ze classic technique

First you pound ze fish flat with a mallet

Zen you slash through the skin

Give the ze belly a slice

Zen you rub some salt in

'Cos zat makes it taste nice

Zoot alors! I have missed one

Sacre bleu, what is zis?

How on earth could I miss

Such a sweet little succulent crab?

Quelle domage, what a loss

Here we go, in ze sauce

And some flour, I think just a dab

Zen I stuff you with bread

It don't hurt, cos you're dead

And you're certainly lucky you are

Cos it's gonna be hot

In my big silver pot

Too-da-loo mon poisson au revoir!
