Lyrics: Anon

Un jeune moine est sorti du couvent,
A rencontré la nonnette au corps gent,
Se mit à lui demander
S'elle voulait brinbaler
Ou danser au petit pas.
"Vrai dieu, hélas, vous n'y brinbalerez moine pas".

"Et moine, moine qu'appellez brinbaler?"
"Ma jeune dame, baiser et accoller;
En notre religion,
Brinbaler nous appellons
Nud à nud entre deux draps".
"Vrai dieu, hélas, vous n'y brinbalerez moine pas".

"Ha, frère frère que diront vos abbés?
Les fondateurs sont déçus et gabés,
En lieu de bien entonner
Vous faites le lit branler;
La règle ne l'entend pas".
"Vrai dieu, hélas, vous n'y brinbalerez moine pas".

So this young monk leaves the convent
And bumps into this buxom young novice.
So he asks if she's up for
Screwing or doing the Twist.
"Strewth monk, you'll not be screwing here".

"So monk, what do you mean by "screwing"?"
"Well lass it's snogging and groping;
In our religious order
By screwing we mean
In the nuddie between two sheets".
"Strewth monk, you'll not be screwing here".

"Oh brother, what'll the rest of your order say?
The founders are disappointed and mouthy.
Instead of chanting sweetly
You make the bed creak;
The monastic rule doesn't fathom it.
"Strewth monk, you'll not be screwing here".
