The French have come
and imposed us new taxes
Liberte, egalite
I rob you, you rob me
The French have arrived
and already bled us dry
Et Voile, et voile
A kick up liberty's ass
To the sound of the bass drum
Hail the lower class!
To the sound of the tambourine
The poor people rose up!
To the sound of the bells
Hail, hail the peasant!
To the sounds of the violins
Death to the jacobins!
