The Toad of Montmartre

The croaking toad The spitting toad Is ill Time and wind pass Like poor cowards. Nothing is forever Life will remain beautiful Put a little salt ‘Cause we must fill up the shovel Where everything is bland. It's snowing in my heart It's not a great misfortune Clouds and birds pass. The croaking toad The spitting toad Has lost happiness. P.S.
