Pierre Perret is not tender with the capital!"Paris is disgusting, only the rats are happy", he sings in Paris Saccagé, a song unveiled on his Youtube channel, this Saturday 18 March. He mocks the construction work, the overflowing garbage cans and the omnipresent dirt of the city, in a clip where he rides his bike through the streets of the capital.
A bit reactive, but good-natured, Pierre Perret attacks the ecologists, the cyclists, the city hall, and everything that, according to him, makes Paris a city where it is not good to live anymore. Of course, what would a song about Paris be without a praise of the good old days? When the city"was a paradise", explains the interpreter of Zizi, Lily or Mon p'tit loup.
Paris Saccagé reminds us of Renaud 's dispensable commentary in song on the Coronavirus pandemic. At 88 years old, Pierre Perret is scathing in insisting on the problems that the city hall faces in containing its plagues, from drugs to dirt, through redevelopment works. Here is one who will certainly not participate in the March 23 strike!
