While the unsual break's moments
When he don't fix somethin'
He's looking for somewhere
Where we can plant a nail again (toolbox) {x2}
The nail he sink instead
Of the yesterday's one, he'll replace it
Tomorrow by a better one
With the same as the day before yesterday by the way
{Chorus}
God, what a happiness !
God, what a happiness
To have a husband who tinkers
God, what a happiness !
God, what a happiness
To have a husband who tinkers
(Toolbox) {x2}
Over one of my pregnancies
In front of him, I was pestering all the time
Against the costly price
Of a baby's outfit (toolbox) {x2}
But when the baby has been born
I saw with a deeply joy
That my husband managed
To dress him
{Chorus}
He's making at this time
A new electrical system
Which will finally attain the man,
To turn wine into water (toolbox) {x2}
But he was wrong in his calculations
And when we want to drink at the pump
We may get
A big drink of electricity
{Chorus}
He's afraid that some scoundrels
Take his knives, his pincers,
When he goes to bed, he settle them
In the middle of his conjugal bed
And I wake up often at night
Dreaming of a promised land
Announced by a naughty touch
But it was only a crankshaft !
God, what a misfortune !
God, what a misfortune
To have a husband who tinkers
God, what a misfortune !
God, what a misfortune
To have a husband who tinkers
(Toolbox) {x2}
