Pour conserver la ligne,

To preserve my figure

Je me mets au régime,

I go on a diet

Je dîne d’une endive

For dinner I have chicory

Et d’un petit biscuit.

And a little biscuit

Mais il n’y a rien à faire,

But there's nothing I can do, for

Pendant la nuit entière,

All night long...

Je rêve d’une soupière

I dream about a soup tureen

Pleine de spaghettis.

Filled to brim with spaghetti

Viva la pappa pappa

Long live the grub

Col po po po po po po po mo do ro

and tomato!

Viva la pappa pappa

Long live the grub

Che un ca po po po po po po lavoro

Che un ca po po po po po po lavoro

Viva la pa pa pa pa pa

Long live the grub

Col po po po mo dor

Toutes les filles d’Ève

All girls, daughters of Eve,

Devraient faire la grève,

Should go on strike,

Que l’étendard se lève

Let the banner be raised

Dès la revoluzion’

Bring on the rivoluzione

Car c’est trop et en somme

Because, in short, it's just too much

À l’époque où nous sommes

In our day and age,

Devoir pour les hommes

To have to die from starvation,

Mourir d’inanition.

To please men

Viva la pappa pappa

Long live the grub

Col po po po po po po po mo do ro

and tomato!

Viva la pappa pappa

Long live the grub

Che un ca po po po po po po lavoro

Che un ca po po po po po po lavoro

Viva la pa pa pa pa pa

Long live the grub

Col po po po mo dor

with tomato
