I drink my beer in a dying sun It's said that I'm so lucky to live alone Let's put the helmet on Upset people call me all day long My life turned into a Chinese pho-pho-phone Let's put the helmet on The web and crisis let my Caro in Arts, films, shows, books and music let us carry on Let's put the helmet on Well not if you're inside I'm always free inside I drink my beer in a dying sun It's said that I'm so lucky to live alone Let's put the helmet on Upset people call me all day long My life turned into a Chinese pho-pho-phone Let's put the helmet on Because outside... Because outside...

Un homme seul à la plage Regarde les filles Peut-être qu'elles ne sont pas de son âge Mais il en fait fi Il voulait juste un bain de mer De retour chez sa mère Il regarde au loin le rivage Perdu dans l'océan Des femmes avec enfants Ou des femmes-enfants

Any pleasure kills This is how it feels When you're driving fast Or when you're eating fat Drinking or smoking that And hey you know what Even love with HIV Even love with pregnancy Well bad things can kill us too We just have to make it through What else can we do Yeah What else can we do What else can we do What else can we do What else can we do What else can we do

If I could choose a silent place And if I had some magic spells Would you ever learn to trust someone else Then we would be just face to face And I could watch your full disgrace I'm gonna take my time to solve your case Then I would send you countless souls Immigrants, poors, tramps, animals All kinds of beings your navel mauls I'd raise their zombies and point at you You'd feel their grasp and anger too So you think that's a curse you can live through And in case it's not enough I call a goat To lick your feet Till I hear something positive from your throat Or maybe a cat could fit Oh you can call me crazy You can call me lazy Well I won't call you lucky The reason why you can't kill yourself Is the same why you kill planet Earth Next time you go out, please break the curse Don't let your heart rot on a fucking shelf
5.
Keep your ice Keep your tears out of my eyes There’s something in your fears that I can’t find Scuse me for the wind cos I’ve been blind You drive me mad Tell me why you feel so bad Do you love me enough to show your mind? There’s something in your tears that I can’t find That I can’t find You test me right Test me 'till it leads to suicide There’s something in your hips that I can’t find Scuse me for the wind cos I’ve been blind Tell me how Tell me who Tell me all now Escape me all day long f*****g my mind There’s something in your tears that I can’t find That I can’t find How can I explain it? How could we complain About you and me But Love is not always a friend of Empathy Can you leave your pain? I’ll end like Cobain The day you leave me I want to see you happy and your words free And your words free And your words free

I am born in the sun Like the smallest bit of your bones Well I shouldn't have come With my tears unless you want some Let me share your wine And I'll show you how to feel fine If you throw me a coin I will show you how to walk the line I cannot move that mountain on my own Well I cannot move that mountain on my own I cannot move that mountain on my own Well I cannot move that mountain on my own Will you hear my voice Despite your damn free choice Refuse that world of greed and bloody and cruel noise Will you stop dreaming of a Bentley or Rolls Royce But throw me a dime Cos your afterlife is to define I cannot move that mountain on my own Well I cannot move that mountain on my own I cannot move that mountain on my own Well I cannot move that mountain on my own

Eternity 05:01
Would i follow Musk on Mars Or McConaughey and TARS Would I try cocaine like Lars Will I find bliss in your eyes I'm tired of throwing the same dice Trust or lust will not suffice Will I live the scenes I wish Before I start to vanish Love and towels on a beach Could I concede a thing or two I'm quite demanding, that is true But my rocket needs a crew Would I give all For eternity Would I try all For ecstasy No betrayal Let's be happy Would I give all For eternity Would I give all Would I try all No betrayal Let's be happy Je crois savoir la signification Chez beaucoup d'entre nous les garçons D'avoir pour étendards toutes ces déraisons Ces boissons, addictions Elucubrations L'éternité entière personne ne l'a Et elle est loin d'être standard, la moitié que chacun a Pour créer, ou écouter Au moins pour aimer, être aimé

No matter that you're gone now I'm used to be so neglected No matter that I barely know how I'm used to be so rejected No matter that you're bored now I'm used to be so regretted The only thing about which I don't wonder how Is how king Manu First was elected Our TV shows are like trains for a cow Too many souls are infected Farewell to the Johnnies Have a nice musical trip One is dead, the other is not Both leaving myself to rot Music goes on and sings along I just didn't see anything go wrong (anything but that fuckin line) Eveything's fine, no need to weep Everything's normal, the sun shines a lot Lana Del Rey is a creep What the hell did she do Close to be a weirdo But still very hot Farewell to the Johnnies Farewell to the Johnnies To the Johnnies To the Johnnies To the Johnnies To the Johnnies To the Johnnies To the

Black panther Warm nights are coming And male cats singing Their hallelujah One of them is starving His desire is burning He's singing for ya Will you guess who he runs after The one whose skin smells like new leather Black panther She's pretty ambitious And sometimes nervous A trouble maker Her strength has no end Her pride will not bend But she's my lover I'm mewing after all meals she cooks Let's make some kittens before we're spooks Black panther Black panther Listen This is what happens When we're together

I see it goin on Each day on my own There's no attempt to run And I see later on Every soul on its own I see it flesh and bone Loves and friends are gone And I see later on Eveything I've never done I see it goin on I see it flesh and bone Loves and friends are gone It's better to move on It's better to move on

Envy 03:45
When lights of summer get so bright And I feel lonely like a wight I envy you When atomic girls blow my mind And kiss only boys of your kind I envy you You shine by loving none else But your big ego and little ass I (almost) envy you Your careless species dominate Boredom leads you to fecundate Well I cannot have this simple pace Life's much easier with cold brains Never dreaming when it rains But I'll never be that simple case I Envy you Well should I Envy you Not so much Maybe Not so much Maybe Envy you Envy you

Je voudrais un rendez-vous Qui pourrait finir chez vous Je suis prêt, je me dévoue Je suis fou De vous Je ferai du rendez-vous Un instant très galant pour vous J'apporterai même du tofu De bon goût Pour vous J'ai mangé trop de tofu Et j'ai fait des blagues sur vous C'était bête je l'avoue Entre nous J'men fous Vous m'avez presque rompu le cou Avec les bobos c'est tu-fou Je vais noyer tout ce tofu Au rosé D'Anjou Je voudrais un rendez-vous Qui pourrait finir chez vous Je voudrais un rendez-vous Qui pourrait finir chez vous

Now time has come To be at home You seem so pure It's your signature I'm building all I sell my soul I will assume You will not run My foolish bones Will shake for once For all you've done Your latest dance This new fragrance This glance of queen When I try to dance Well It's Halloween Now love has come No time to roam There's no escape I'm with you babe I will not run But watch for fun The ceremonial Wedding on tape And please welcome My humble genes You look handsome Like a holy place When I behold Your naked grace In this white gold Of your necklace And when we die Our souls won't fly Our atoms lie They won't keep tied They're building all They'll run away And after all Give birth anyway Tah tah dah tah Tah tah dah tah Tah tah dah tah Tah tah dah tah Thanks to la vie And your charity Tah tah dah tah...

Ophélie 02:30
Ophélie Souriante et active Ophélie I cannot believe Toi si jolie That i'ts time for you to leave My inner sun is old You're my gentle moon In a perfect world You're the smile of noon I need your heart of gold And I ask it like a goon When you're gone away You'll still have a role to play When you're gone away You'll still have a role to play When you're gone away You'll still have a role to play

Beauté complexe du nom de Manon Sortie du grand coeur blanc de Pluton Ou peut-être d'un superamas, non? Avec la Lune au-dessus du menton Ravioles et pâtes elle les dévore Comme si elle devait battre un record Elle a des étoiles plein le corps Il m'en reste à découvrir encore Volontiers martienne sur les bords Ses yeux sont deux trous noirs au coeur d'or Je subodore un corps à corps Entre mes accords et un air de cor Chat va sans dire Que je vais dire Miaoh miaoh Nous allons rire Oublier de mourir Waoh waoh Qu'a-t-il dans la poire Quelle est son histoire Que te veut-il Ce Breton aux regards subtils Eh, le con Il a sorti la mandoline... Sans doute pour une raison Que tu devines Il te trouve un bon goût d'Italie Charmante petite Manon jolie Il ne fait aucun doute que tu auras son scalp Facétieuse petite lynxe des Alpes

J’ai dû bouger ma galère Laisser mon vain dans ton vert Un transfert De fonds vers Lucifer et ses affaires Avant d’être en bleu en vert D’autres se seraient mis en l’air Dans la mer Aux flots verts N’ayant vraiment rien à faire Etre mondain me pompe l’air Mieux vaudrait connaître la Terre Et la mère Aux yeux verts Pour le trouvère du désert

Tell me what your bliss looks like How my life can reach such a pike Without ring I'm tired to wait that way in a trench For love to get for good out of range That's something That's something Careful with that big nail cutta You mystic girl from Calcutta Just don't bleed your complex beauty Your painted nails are so fine to me Indian spirit is between yes and no You're somebody I must get to know Come on you're far too smart to bend the knee You know you're too gorgeous for slavery

Haunting me and haunting you Theses dreams of being cared for Are a fact But nothing's me and nothing's you We're flesh made calculators We interact We interact Why the hell did you smile to me So kindly All my jokes were bad So truly Truly Close to you is the place to be Haunting me and haunting you Nothing's me and nothing's you Haunting me and haunting you Nothing's me and nothing's you Why did you smile to me Haunting me and haunting you Haunting me and haunting you Why did you smile to me Why did you smile to me

Faint in my arms The tall man said, steady and calm He'd only fear a rabid goat Something he never speaks about Six feet at least Below that, a man is a beast A crystal heart, brains of goat Possibly leaving suicide notes A tall man's what you need Expensive to feed Will you lay your eyes on me Will you lay your eyes on me The half-man who makes sound Tall enough to reach the ground Will you lay your eyes on me Will you lay your eyes on me The half-man who makes sound Tall enough to reach the ground Will you lay your eyes on me Will you lay your eyes on me The half-man who makes sound Tall enough to reach the ground Will you lay your eyes on me Will you lay your eyes on me The half-man who makes sound Tall enough to reach the ground Will you lay your eyes on me Will you lay your eyes on me Will you lay your eyes on me Will you lay your eyes on me Beasts and Beauties can be bound In stories spreading around Beasts and Beauties can be bound In stories spreading around On a beau dire Le nabot dure

Quoi que je fasse Il est question de téléphone Un beau jour tu passes Te distingues parmi la faune Tu sais que tu ressembles à Katie Holmes? Ouais c'est moi qui ai trouvé ça On m'appelle Sherlock Holmes Je te ferai un morceau en 44 kilohertz Mais par un Do il commencera Car t'as plus l'air de Julia Roberts Warm winter song For all the times When I was wrong Warm winter song For all the times When I was On s'est zappés à tours de rôle Le jeu de l'indifférence c'est plutôt drôle Bien sûr je me suis fait des idées Je n'ai goûté qu'à ton amabilité Et c'est mon honneur de mec de ne jamais insister Mais toute belle rencontre est à sonder Des fois que l'amour serait à la clé Warm winter song For all the times When I was wrong Warm winter song For all the times When I was wrong Warm winter song Warm winter song Warm winter song
