Lyrics: Jean Paradin

Un mari sa femme battant,
Elle sébahit de ce fait,
Et disant qu'elle n'a rien fait,
Demande pourquoi la bat tant.
"Je te bats aussi pour autant
Que je sais (dit-il), "et vois bien,
Que tous les jours tu ne fais rien,
De quoi je ne suis content.

So hubby's giving the wife a slap,
And she's gobsmacked by this
And, saying she's done nothing,
Asks why he's beating her so hard.
"I thump you for stuff I find you doing",
He says, "and mark you,
I've got the hump
That you're always doing diddly-squat".
