"Comé-comédie" ("Come-Comedy") was the French entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1972, performed in French by Betty Mars.

The song was performed second on the night, following Germany's Mary Roos with "Nur die Liebe läßt uns leben" and preceding Ireland's Sandie Jones with "Ceol an Ghrá". At the close of voting, it had received 81 points, placing 11th in a field of 18.

The song is a moderately up-tempo number, with Mars singing about the joy which will come when she and her lover say that they love each other. Mars also recorded the song in German, under the title "Komödiant der Liebe" (translated: "Comedian of Love").

It was succeeded as French representative at the 1973 contest by Martine Clémenceau with "Sans toi".
