Trouble waking up this morning Wasn't in my sheets tonight I just couldn't sleep Trouble waking up this morning Wasn't in my bed tonight I just couldn't sleep Trouble waking up this morning Wasn't in my sheets tonight J'ai très mal dormi Now I'm up, I gotta do stuff I go forward, move forward Run run run Run run run Now I'm up, I gotta do stuff I go forward, move forward Run run run Run run run

Bill naked on the sand Wakes up and realizes that the sea is gone away Bill stands up and says "wait!" "Not fair! I'll have to find a brand new place to take a leak" Bill then he takes a walk He meets an undertaker gently leveling his clog Bill shouts "Oh! Ça tombe bien!" "You know the thing I want the most right now? A damn good coffin!" (Espace Confiture) Bill gets in the coffin and then flies away, Fly through time, through space and through confiture "Hey god!" "Hmm?" "You've got mail!" Open up and "Pa-palala-pa-pa-pa-paa!" (Erutifnoc Ecapse)

When I saw you on the stage I was your only one But I met you backstage you didn't recognize me When you saw me on the stage I was your only one But you met me backstage I didn't recognize you

I'm just living in the sea Ices cream islands around me I'm singing about love and hope and that sounds Pop ! Run, run, run around. Faster ! Swim, swim, swim in copper but I sink, sink see you later (see you later) I'm watching girlie shows on TV It's a secret part of me I'm writing a famous song But I sing wrong ! Run, run, run around. Faster ! Swim, swim, swim in copper but I sink, sink see you later (see you later) I'm just swimming in copper See you later, see you later I guess you have a beautiful sun but don't listen the sirens ! Run, run, run around. Faster ! Swim, swim, swim in copper but I sink, sink see you later (see you later)

I get up in the morning Something going right Don’t know what it is But I got something in sight My friend Johnny came to see me But I wasn’t there He might have take it easy I think he doesn’t care But I was waiting for something And nothing happened It’s always the same thing Every now and then And I got a woman in my mind Every day the same She’s exactly my kind But I’m losing the game I couldn’t see the trap And I think I felt I get through the water gap And then I belt But I was waiting for something And nothing happened It’s always the same thing Every now and then You wanted me to speak Nut I said “no way” I was like a freak I got nothing else to say We got nothing but fire And hope in our hand The step’s getting higher To escape from this land But I was waiting for something And nothing happened It’s always the same thing Every now and then Seven days are left But more and more are comin’ You’ll become the last Of the few still breathing The seagull won’t warn you About the reaper and death There’s nothing I can do I’ll see you with the priest But I was waiting for something And nothing happened It’s always the same thing Every now and then

You can shiver little bastards I'm back! Me Black Jack the terror of the saloon To kick your ass with my US boots Hey baby, you're here to see me win Give me a glass and a bottle of whiskey Buddies lay your cards on the table Chuck out your dosh you know I'm your boss! I'm Black Jack! Black Jack! I have a horse and a snake and something else I just can't remember the name cause I don't watch enough western I lost, Walking on the desert alone The sun is hot I've got sand in my boots I have to take off my boots I sweat I need a swimming pool I have some hallucinations I put my gun on my head, I have to...

She flies, she hides Then she disappears Just to make me fear And she's disguised And she touches the sky Yes she's so high Yes she's so high While I care, she enjoys her life She's free from the daily hassles And I worry and I complain I want her to be by my side And I should mind like her And just live my own life While I care, she enjoys her life She's free from the daily hassles And I worry and I complain I want her to be by my side Now she's out of my life

Just 'cause I missed all your previous parties It doesn't mean that I won't crash this one Anyone here might think of me as a fifth wheel Gimme a minute and I'll bring in the fun Hey, guess what I'm gonna stay (Get out now !) x4 I just came up on the geographic ladder The South is now just a distant home but It makes no difference 'cause you know I'm not that older Nor tired, in fact I'm tired of feeling alone I felt it drip along my spinal chord all evening The sweat that pours down from my hair is black With it I put down all the memories still hanging And I'm ready to get back on track Hey, guess what I'm gonna stay (Get out now !) x4

Sometimes I wonder If things could get better Come on take a beer And leave alone your fear Tomorrow is a shiny day To pack up my guitar I just go away Go to the next bar I was dreamin' of a summer night With nothing wrong and nothing right I was waitin' for the summer time Got nothing else on my mind You got a worried mind But it’s okay you’ll be fine I’m riding to the west You should be there take a rest We have to go fast Come on have a breakfast Get ready for the trip Here is the treasure ship My mother told me son Be happy and go home I said home it’s too far And I’ve got whisky in the jar Pretty girls on the road Just get out the cold It’s quite warm in there You can’t refuse a dare

Svp Monsieur le producteur, écoutez moi je suis un sacré chanteur Svp Monsieur le producteur, engagez moi n’ayez pas peur J’vais te dire coco, des gars comme toi j’en ai des tas Alors ton petit numéro ne m’impressionne pas du tout Et la crise, t’y penses à la crise ? Tu ne te mets pas à ma place ! Un peu de sérieux ! Merci. Au revoir. Svp Monsieur le producteur, parlez-en à votre directeur Svp Monsieur le producteur, je suis un vrai crooner C’est qu’il insiste ! Faut que je répète ? Tu ne comprends pas ? Toi ; ta chanson de merde : hors de question On va faire simple. Tu comprends ? Toujours pas ? Tu prends tes clics, tes clacs, allez ouste ! Svp Monsieur le producteur, je suis un parfait songwriter Svp Monsieur le producteur, je pourrai même être acteur C’est bien, t’as du mordant mais qu’est ce que tu cherches ? La bagarre, c’est ça ? La castagne ? Tu sais qui je suis au moins, hein, tu sais ? T’es foutu mon vieux je vais te massacrer ! Svp Monsieur le producteur, C’est pas possible ! Svp Monsieur le producteur, Toi t’es mort ! Svp Monsieur le producteur, Je vais te foutre la tête au carré ! Svp Monsieur le producteur, Je n’ai jamais vu ça !

Oscillant dans nos cous Elles nous espionnent Elles virevoltent dans nos têtes Saturent nos crânes Par nuées s'engouffrent dans l'air Chatouillent nos artères Sifflent, sifflent mes yeux Remplis d'ampoules Faufile-toi Cours, transperce, le long des murs Pourquoi ces soleils de nuit ? Pourquoi l'arrière d'un corps de suie ?

It’s like being under a bridge of clouds For a while Looking at the shapes the wind provides Feeling all around the crumbling ground Lost in the countryside Back to the city and traffic jams Week begins Walking throught the misty morning crowd On the way to work you’re not allowed To scream in pain Willing to get out Getting in a plane, the first to leave To somewhere It’s a one-way trip, you won’t come back Leaving all their hopes and plans behind You Willing to get out

Summer is so sad, when fire is coming down, on you girl, on your eyes of sand, on your fire, who make me sad, I try to sleep, near the fire, I try to sleep, on your sand, Dogs are standing on the table, Dogs are standing on the table…
