Serge Gainsbourg (1928.1991)
Autographed notes signed – Exquisite Corpse
One page in-4° on paper from the Floch printing house.
No place or date [Paris. 1986]
In preparation for his anthology published by Denoël, Mon propre rôle , Serge Gainsbourg revisited, annotated and validated the proofs of his song Le cadavre exquis written in 1975 for the B-side of the 45 rpm record L'Ami Caouette .
There is no doubt that his love for the Dadaist and Surrealist movements inspired and invited the artist to write about this mythical game.

If we were to play the game of exquisite corpse
Just to help pass the time and pass the time a little
You write a word, anything
And I'll write another one after you
The little shit fly
He doubled his efforts
There are kicks that go to waste
In rubles
Yes, that's the exquisite corpse game
We're going to play it all night
Emmanuelle likes being petted
Oral and manual
Shake your butt a little
She told me
I prefer playing the exquisite corpse game
Rather than putting it on all night
Black humor comes from Africa
Example: Amin Dada
I'm magnetic tape
For him
OK
