The bourgeoisie are like pigs
Le coeur bien au chaud
Les yeux dans la bire
Chez la grosse Adrienne de Montalant
Avec l'ami Jojo
Et avec l'ami Pierre
On allait boire nos vingt ans
Jojo se prenait pour Voltaire
Et Pierre pour Casanova
Et moi, moi qui tais le plus fier
Moi, moi je me prenais pour moi
Et quand vers minuit passaient les notaires
Qui sortaient de l'htel des "Trois Faisans"
On leur montrait notre cul et nos bonnes manires
En leur chantant
Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus a devient vieux plus a devient bte
Les bourgeois c'est comme les cochons
Plus a devient vieux plus a devient c...

French and Italian Soundtracks
Time Magazine, Aug. 21, 1964: In some 500 bars, restaurants and servicemen's clubs throughout the U.S., the center of attention these days is a monstrous new machine called Scopitone. It is a cross between a jukebox and TV. For $.25 a throw, Scopitone projects any one of 36 musical movies on a 26-in. screen, flooding the premises with delirious color and hi-fi scooby-ooby-doo for three whole minutes. (Thanks to PCL LinkDump)
