Analysis of À la jeune pintade
Maurice Rollinat 1846 (Châteauroux) – 1903 (Ivry-sur-Seine)
Je te mets en capilotade
Si je te prends à batailler :
Assez longtemps le poulailler
A souffert ta rodomontade.
Je t’en préviens, jeune pintade,
Comme un bourreau, sans sourciller.
Je te mets en capilotade
Si je te prends à batailler.
Je te passe encor la boutade
Et ta façon de piailler
Qui m’empêche de travailler ;
Mais, à la première incartade,
Je te mets en capilotade !
