Where did you go?
Mother of the Angels
Whatever went wrong?
Angels turned to orphans

And the school kids forever wait
For the bus will never show

 

Where have you gone?
Gentle marching drummer
What could be done?
To break this rhythm silence

And the sorrow turns to pain
In the sound of falling rain

 

Do you see the children laughing?
Do you feel the mothers crying?
Do you hear the music playing?
And dance with the butterfly
Do you feel the cold rain falling?

 

What have you done?
Couldn't you come to someone?
The damage is done
There's no turning back now

And the sorrow turns to pain
In the sound of falling rain

 

Can you see the children laughing?
Can you feel the mothers crying?
Can you hear the music playing?
And dance with the butterflies
Can you hear the echoes calling?

 

How long you've been down?
Wasn't anyone around?
As you wandered in the Hall

 

How deep was the fall?
Weren't you frightened at all?
As your wings touched the ground?

 

I see the world through different eyes

 

How sad were the clowns?
When the circus came around
In this old dirty town

 

How precious was the Crown?
That the three children found
And turned the world up-side down

 

I see the world through different eyes

 

How nice is the sound?
When the music surrounds
This Lonesome face in the crowd

 

What's left of me just lies behind
So far away
I see a light beyond my life
So far away
What's left of me just lies behind
So far away

What's left of me just lies behind
So far away, so far away

 

I see a light beyond my life
So far away

And light emerges from their cries
So far away so far away
Now tears are falling from the skies
So far away

So far away, so far away

 

I see the world through Different eyes

 

So far away so far away

So far away

 

My world is crumbling down
Roaring-like thunder sound
Please tell me where I stand

Oh I can hear the voices calling my name

I know you'll never let me go

 

It comes as no surprise
Only the strong survive
Just tell me where we stand

The more you are standing tall
Much deeper is the fall
Into the Neverland

 

Oh I feel I am falling
Please hold my hand

I know you'll never let me go
And you know I'll never let you go

 

I hear the voice of those who cry
My faith reflecting into their eyes
Am I to die?

 

Unspoken words from prayers denied
Are washed to shore within this tide
Am I to die?

 

The sky below so beautiful
The clouds surround me like Madrigal
We never die

 

The winds of fall reviving all
The falling leaves in marble halls
We never die

We never die...

 

If only you knew all the tears
That just fall from these eyes
And the sorrow that is drowning my life

 

If you could hear the silent scream
That cuts through the night
And the echoes stabbing my soul

 

If you could feel all the love
That just dies in this heart
Then you'd know that it tears me apart
It tears me apart

 

 

Still the sorrow turns to pain
In the sound of falling rain

 

When I hear the children laughing
When I feel the mothers crying
Then I hear the music playing
I see you there with the butterflies
I can hear your echoes calling

Hold your head up high you know you've come a long way, a long way

Tainted as a fugitive with nothing left to say
Temptation may come hope your vision doesn't stray
In the name of God you may be forced away

 

Moving forward to the only place you know
Sidetracked by some indiscretion, changing as you go
Temptation may come hope your conscience doesn't hide
The longest trip you'll take is inside

 

It's the last time telling myself everything
Call me over then bring me back again
It's the last chance telling myself that I believe
Your forever is mine and all I need

 

Now life tell me now in your arms
All I really need is you by my side
I sing this to you all the world and all it is
I bring this to you this gift of love

 

And the world turns and the world turns

 

Time tells all we know

We look to it Jesus on the radio
Pledge me what you got

I'll give you eternal resting spot
How intense I pray

Depends on how much you pay

 

It's the last time getting it this life
First calling in a silent spring
It's the first time getting it this life
First calling in a silent spring

 

Fear strikes deeper than visionary
Screams and tears never justify this love

 

Talk talk listening
Like the first words ever to reach out
Talk talk
Like the first sounds in a silent spring
Talk talk listening
Like the first words ever to reach out to you
Talk talk
Like the first sound you start to sing

 

So take your time
Look round and see
The most in time

Is where you're meant to be

 

For they talk too loud
And take the hope and peace from your heart
We call this surrender
Slowly towards the north
And this endless dream

Giving ourselves everything
We're deserving we're gonna bring it back again
It's the last time telling myself everything
It's the last time bring me back bring me back again

 

When the world brings you down
You can search you inside
For the love you will find (bring me back home)

 

When the world brings you down
You can search you inside
When the world brings you down
I've waited so long
When the world brings you down
You gotta play this living game
When the world brings you down

 

So take your time
Look round and see
The most in time

Is where you're meant to be
For you are light
Inside your dreams
For you will find that it's something
That touches me

Bright light city gonna set my soul
Gonna set my soul on fire
Got a whole lot of money that's ready to burn
So get those stakes up higher
 
There's a thousand pretty women waitin' out there
And they're all livin' the devil may care
And I'm just the devil with love to spare, so
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas
 
How I wish that there were more
Than the twenty-four hours in the day
Even if there were forty more
I wouldn't sleep a minute away
 
Oh, there's black jack and poker and the roulette wheel
A fortune won and lost on ev'ry deal
All you need's a strong heart and a nerve of steel
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas
 
Viva Las Vegas with your neon flashin'
And your one arm bandits crashin'
All those hopes down the drain
Viva Las Vegas turnin' day into nighttime
Turnin' night into daytime
If you see it once
You'll never be the same again
 
I'm gonna keep on the run
I'm gonna have me some fun
If it costs me my very last dime
If I wind up broke, oh well
I'll always remember that I had a swingin' time
 
I'm gonna give it ev'rything I've got
Lady luck please let the dice stay hot
Let me shoot a seven with ev'ry shot, ah
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas, Viva, Viva Las Vegas

You're so hot, teasing me
So, you're blue, but I can't take a chance on a chick like you
That's something I couldn't do
 
There's that look in your eyes
I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild
Ah, but girl, you're only a child
 
Well, I can dance with you, honey, if you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you, baby, flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?
 
Take it easy (take it easy)
Better slow down, girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know?
 
Take it easy (take it easy)
Try to cool it, girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?
 
I can see what you want
But you seem pretty young to be searching for that kind of fun
So maybe I'm not the one
 
Now you're so cute, I like your style
And I know what you mean when you give me a flash of that smile (smile)
But girl, you're only a child
 
Well, I can dance with you, honey, if you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you, baby, flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?
 
Take it easy (take it easy)
Better slow down, girl
That's no way to go
Does your mother know?
 
Take it easy (take it easy)
Try to cool it, girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?
 
Well, I can dance with you, honey, if you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you, baby, flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?
 
Well, I can dance with you, honey, if you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you, baby, flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?
 
Well, I can dance with you, honey, if you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you, baby, flirt a little maybe

Bulle de chagrin

Boule d'incertitude

Tant de matins

Que rien ne dissimule

Je veux mon hiver

M'endormir loin de tes chimères

Je sais bien que je mens

Je sais bien que j'ai froid dedans

 

Bulle de chagrin

Boule d'incertitude

De nos destins

Naît que solitude

Tu dis qu'il faut du temps

Qu'aimer n'est pas un jeu d'enfant

Je sais bien que tu mens

Mais je suis si seule à présent

 

Ainsi soit je

Ainsi soit tu

Ainsi soit-il

Ainsi moi je

Prie pour que tu

Fuis mon exil

Mais quel espoir

Pourrais-je avoir

Quand tout est noir ?

Ainsi soit je

Ainsi soit tu

Ainsi soit ma vie

Tant pis

 

Bulle de chagrin

Boule d'incertitude

Deux orphelins

Que le temps défigure

Je voudrais mon hiver

M'endormir loin de tes chimères

Tu sais bien que je mens

Tu sais bien que j'ai froid dedans.

 

Ainsi soit je

Ainsi soit tu

Ainsi soit-il

Ainsi moi je

Prie pour que tu

Fuis mon exil

Mais quel espoir

Pourrais-je avoir

Quand tout est noir ?

Ainsi soit je

Ainsi soit tu

Ainsi soit ma vie

Tant pis...

Puisqu’il faut choisir,

À mots doux je peux le dire,

Sans contrefaçon

Je suis un garçon.

Et pour un empire

Je ne veux me dévêtir,

Puisque sans contrefaçon

Je suis un garçon.

 

Tout seul dans mon placard

Les yeux cernés de noir,

À l’abri des regards

Je défie le hasard.

Dans ce monde qui n’a ni queue ni tête

Je n’en fais qu’à ma tête.

Un mouchoir au creux du pantalon

Je suis chevalier d’Éon.

 

Puisqu’il faut choisir,

À mots doux je peux le dire,

Sans contrefaçon

Je suis un garçon.

Et pour un empire

Je ne veux me dévêtir,

Puisque sans contrefaçon,

Je suis un garçon.

 

Tour à tour on me chasse de vos fréquentations.

Je n’admets qu’on menace mes résolutions.

Je me fous bien des qu’en-dira-t’on,

Je suis caméléon.

Prenez garde à mes soldats de plomb,

C’est eux qui vous tueront.

 

Puisqu’il faut choisir,

À mots doux je peux le dire,

Sans contrefaçon

Je suis un garçon.

Et pour un empire

Je ne veux me dévêtir,

Puisque sans contrefaçon,

Je suis un garçon.

J'ai comme une envie

De voir ma vie au lit

Comme une idée fixe

Chaque fois que l'on me dit

La plaie c'est ça :

C'est qu'elle pousse trop vite

La mauvaise herbe nuit

C'est là qu'il me vient une idée :

Pouvoir m'apitoyer

 

C'est bien ma veine

Je souffre en douce

J'attends ma peine

Sa bouche est si douce

 

J'ai comme une envie

De voir ma vie au lit

Comme une idée fixe

Qui me poursuit la nuit - la nuit - la nuit

Je savoure la nuit

L'idée d'éternité

La mauvaise herbe nuit

Car elle ne meurt jamais

 

Quand tout est gris

La peine est mon amie

Un long suicide acide

Je t'aime mélancolie

Sentiment qui

Me mène à l'infini

Mélange du pire, de mon désir,

Je t'aime mélancolie

 

Quand tout est gris

La peine est mon amie

J'ai l'âme humide aussi

Tout mon être chavire

Oh viens je t'en prie

C'est ton amie aussi

C'est l'élixir de mes délires

Je t'aime mélancolie

 

J'ai comme une envie

De voir ma vie en l'air

Chaque fois que l'on me dit

C'est de la mauvaise herbe

Et moi je dis :

Qu'une sauvage née

Vaut bien d'être estimée

Après tout elle fait souvent la nique

Aux "trop bien" cultivées, et toc !

 

C'est bien ma veine

Je souffre en douce

J'attends ma peine

Sa bouche est si douce

 

J'ai comme une idée

De la moralité

Comme une idée triste

Mais qui ne meurt jamais

En somme c'est ça :

Pour plaire aux jaloux

Il faut être ignorée

Mais là, mais là, mais là, pour le coup

C'est Dieu qui m'a planté, alors ?

Packing up the dreams God planted
In the fertile soil of you
Can't believe the hopes He's granted
Means a chapter in your life is through
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
'Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong

 

And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
'Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long
To live as friends

 

With the faith and love God's given
Springing from the hope we know
We will pray the joy you'll live in
Is the strength that now you show
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
'Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong

 

And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
'Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long
To live as friends

 

And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
'Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long
To live as friends

 

No, a lifetime's not too long
To live as friends

Who needs a dream?
Who needs ambition?
Who'd be the fool
In my position?
Once I had dreams
Now they're obsessions
Hopes became needs
Lovers possessions.
 
Then they move in
Oh so discreetly
Slowly at first
Smiling too sweetly
I opened doors
They walked right through them
Called me their friend
I hardly knew them.
 
Now I'm where I want to be and who I want to be and doing what I
always said I would and yet I feel I haven't won at all.
Running for my life and never looking back in case there's
someone right behind to shoot me down and say he always knew I'd fall.
 
When the crazy wheel slows down
Where will I be? Back where I started.
 
Don't get me wrong
I'm not complaining
Times have been good
Fast, entertaining
But what's the point
If I'm concealing
Most of my thoughts
All of my feeling.
 
Now I'm where I want to be and who I want to be and doing what I
always said I would and yet I feel I haven't won at all.
Running for my life and never looking back in case there's
someone right behind to shoot me down and say he always knew I'd fall.
 
When the crazy wheel slows down
Where will I be? Back where I started.

The skies over Cuba turned pink with the light
And the waterfront ritual began to ignite
All the ships in the harbor were warmed by the sun
Twenty-fifth of November 1921

 

On the old Chicamauga the signal jacks flew
And the message they spelled out caused a great ballyhoo
Every ship in Havana then hoisted away
All the pennants were 'a flyin' on my dad's first birthday

 

Enduring echoes call out from his past
Time ain't for savin' no time's not for that
Chasing false echoes like a lost legionnaire
He waltzes on memories while he fades like a flare

 

Now his storybook childhood was not make believe
On the decks of a tall ship he was taught to achieve
Witnessed storms and starvation natural wonders and force
Oh the life of a sailor steers a wanderin' course

 

Enduring echoes call out from his past
Time ain't for savin' no time's not for that
Chasing false echoes like a lost legionnaire
He waltzes on memories while he fades like a flare

 

Well now life throws us curve balls we never can reach
He gave up the ocean but he lived by the beach
Where he raised up his family taught us all to survive
Then the wind went away in 1995

 

Now the old Chicamauga has slipped by the way
She lies on the bottom of old Mobile Bay
Where the ghosts of his father and his brother are near
They protect him and tell him there's nothin' to fear

 

Cause it's family tradition we take to the sea
And it's a time in the future for Cameron and me

 

Enduring echoes call out from his past
Time ain't for saving no time's not for that
Chasing false echoes like a lost legionnaire
He waltzes on memories while he fades like a flare

 

The skies over Cuba were warmed by the sun

Si Dieu nous fait à son image

Si c’était sa volonté

Il aurait dû prendre ombrage

Du malin mal habité

Qui s’immisce et se partage

L’innocence immaculée

De mon âme d’enfant sage

Je voudrais comprendre

 

De ce paradoxe

Je ne suis complice

Souffrez qu’une autre

En moi se glisse

Car sans logique

Je me quitte

Aussi bien satanique

Qu’angélique

 

Si chaque fois qu’en bavardages

Nous nous laissons dériver

Je crois bien que d’héritage

Mon silence est meurtrier

Vous me découvrez blafarde

Fixée à vos yeux si tendres

Je pourrais bien par mégarde

D’un ciseau les fendre

Music makes pictures and often tells stories
All of it magic and all of it true
And all of the pictures and all of the stories
All of the magic, the music is you
 
Music makes pictures and often tells stories
All of it magic and all of it true
And all of the pictures and all of the stories
And all of the magic, the music is you

Obsédée du pire

Et pas très prolixe

Mes moindres soupirs

Se métaphysiquent...

J'ai dans mon ciel

Des tonnes de célestes

M'accroche aux ailes...

Et tombe l'ange Gabriel !

 

Obsédée du pire

Un peu trop physique...

L'envie de frémir

Est pharaonique !

...fi de l'ascèse !

Ma vie s'enténèbre

Moi sans la langue

Sans sexe je m'exsangue !

 

L'amour, c'est rien !

Quand c'est politiquement correct

On s'aime bien,

On n' sait même pas quand on se blesse

L'amour c'est rien

Quand tout est sexuellement correct

On s'ennuie bien

On crie avant pour qu'ça s'arrête

 

La vie n'est rien...

Quand elle est tiède !

Elle se consume et vous bascule

Le sang en cendre de cigarette

La vie est bien...

Elle est de miel !

Quand elle s'acide de dynamite

Qui m'aime me suive !

 

Obsédée du pire

Et pas très prolixe

Mes moindres soupirs

Se métaphysiquent...

J'ai dans la tête

Des tonnes de pirouettes

Le saut de l'ange

N'a pour moi rien d'étrange

 

Obsédée du pire

Et pas très prolixe

Partager mes rires

Plutôt plutoniques

J'ai dans ma sphère

Un effet de serre

Mon sang bouillonne

Je bout de tout, en somme

I sat there on the coast of Marseilles
My thoughts came by like wind through my hand
How good it'd be to feel you again
How good it'd be to feel that way again

 

Would you be remembering me?
I ask that question time and again
The answer came and haunted me so
I would not want to think it again
No I would not want to think it again

 

You make it so hard to forget
I haven't stopped lovin' you yet

 

You make it so hard to forget
I haven't stopped lovin' you yet

 

When I left the coast of Marseilles
I hadn't done what I'd come to do
Spent all the money I'd saved
Still did not get over you
No I still did not get over you

Got out of town on a boat goin' to Southern islands
Sailing a reach before a followin' sea
She was makin' for the trades on the outside
And the downhill run to Papeete

Off the wind on this heading lie the Marquesas
We got eighty feet of the waterline nicely making way
In a noisy bar in Avalon I tried to call you
But on a midnight watch I realized why twice you ran away

Think about
Think about how many times I have fallen
Spirits are using me larger voices callin'
What Heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten

(Around the world) I have been around the world
(Lookin') Lookin' for that woman girl
(Who knows she knows) Who knows love can endure
And you know it will

When you see the Southern Cross for the first time
You understand now why you came this way
'Cause the truth you might be runnin' from is so small
But it's as big as the promise, the promise of a comin' day

So I'm sailing for tomorrow my dreams are a dyin'
And my love is an anchor tied to you tied with a silver chain
I have my ship and all her flags are a' flyin'
She is all that I have left and music is her name

Think about
Think about how many times I have fallen
Spirits are using me larger voices callin'
What Heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten

(I've been around the world) I have been around the world
(Lookin') Lookin' for that woman girl
Who knows love can endure
And you know it will, and you know it will

So we cheated and we lied and we tested
And we never failed to fail, it was the easiest thing to do
You will survive being bested
Somebody fine will come along, make me forget about loving you
In the Southern Cross

I've been a stand-in, a stunt man
I've taken some falls
Troubles, I've had my share

But one has to learn how to run before walkin' 'round

Breathin' that million air

 

Take it from me 'cause I found
If you leave it then somebody else is bound
To find that treasure, that moment of pleasure
When yours, it could have been

 

Some people never find it
Some, only pretend, but me:
I just want to live happily ever after every now and then

 

I've been in vans and in bands
On and through stages
One thing I can conclude
One has to learn havin' fun is just smilin' through
Those Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes

 

Take it from me 'cause I've found
If you leave it then somebody else is bound
To find that treasure, that moment of pleasure
When yours, it could have been

 

Some people never find it
Some, only pretend, but me:
I just want to live happily ever after every now and then

 

Some people never find it
Some, only pretend, but me, hell:
I just want to live happily ever after every now and then

One night last summer we were camped at ten thousand feet up where the air is clear, high in the Rockies of Lost Lake, Colorado.

And as the fire burned low and only a few glowing embers remained, we laid on our backs all warm in our sleeping bags and looked up at the stars.
And as I felt myself falling into the vastness of the Universe, I thought about things, and places, and times.


I thought about the time my grandma told me what to say when I saw the evening star.

You know, "Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight. I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight."

 

The air is crystal clear up here; that's why you can see a million stars.

 

I remember a time a bunch of us were in a canyon of the Green River in Wyoming; it was a night like this.

And we had our rafts pulled up on the bank an' turned over so we could sleep on 'em, and one of the guys from New York said, "Hey! Look at the smog in the sky! Smog clear out here in the sticks!"

And somebody said, "Hey, Joe, that's not smog; that's the Milky Way."

Joe had never seen the Milky Way.

 

And we saw the Northern Lights once, in the Bitterroot Mountains of Montana.

They're like flames from some prehistoric campfire, leaping and dancing in the sky and changing colors.

Red to gold, and blue to violet... Aurora Borealis.

 

It's like the equinox, the changing of the seasons. Summer to fall, young to old, then to now. And then tomorrow...

 

And then everyone was asleep, except me.

And as I saw the morning star come up over the mountains, I realized that life is just a collection of memories.

And memories are like starlight: they go on forever.

I met a devil woman
She took my heart away
She said, I've had it comin' to me
But I wanted it that way
I think that any love is good lovin'
So I took what I could get, mmh
Oooh, oooh she looked at me with big brown eyes

And said,
You ain't seen nothin' yet
B-b-b-baby, you just ain't seen n-n-nothin' yet
Here's something that you never gonna forget
B-b-b-baby, you just ain't seen n-n-nothin' yet

"Nothin' yet
You ain't been around
That's what they told me"

And now I'm feelin' better
'Cause I found out for sure
She took me to her doctor
And he told me of a cure
He said that any love is good love
So I took what I could get
Yes, I took what I could get
And then she looked at me with them big brown eyes

And said,
You ain't seen nothin' yet
B-b-b-baby, you just ain't seen n-n-nothin' yet
Here's something, here's something your never gonna forget
baby, you know, you know, you know you just ain't seen nothin' yet

"You need educatin'
You got to go to school"

Any love is good lovin'
So I took what I could get
Yes, I took what I could get
And then, and then, and then
She looked at me with them big brown eyes

And said,
You ain't seen nothin' yet
Baby, you just ain't seen n-n-nothin' yet
Here's something, here's something
Here's something that your never gonna forget, baby
Baby, baby, baby you ain't seen n-n-nothin' yet
You ain't been around
You ain't seen nothin' yet
That's what she told me
She said, "I needed educatin', go to school"
I know I ain't seen nothin' yet
I know I ain't seen nothin' yet

Même si j’en ai vu des culs

C’est son Q.I qui m’a plu

Je vis le choc de cul…ture

La belle aventure

 

Même si je suis dans son lit

C’est son Q.I qui me lie

À lui pour la vie entière

Bien que solitaire

 

Et moi j’en ai vu des culs

Mais c’est son "Q.I" qui eut

Le dernier mot pour m’avoir

Là, sur le plongeoir

 

Bien sûr j’en ai vu des cons

Mais son Q.I me rend com-

-plètement occise de désir

Quitte à en mourir

 

Sa bouche est sanctuaire

La plus sacrée des prières

S’alanguir est pour moi

Le pire des effrois, c’est froid

 

Sa bouche est sanctuaire

Le plus sacré des mystères

Il est l’ange pour moi

Je lui dis tout bas…

 

Qu’il a les rondeurs d’un "Rodin"

J’aime ! Ça m’incite à…

Il sait la douceur de mes reins

Qui oscillent…

Il sent la tiédeur de mes mains

J’aime ! Ça l’incite à…

Longue est la route de nos plaisirs…

…sémantiques !

 

Même si j’en ai vu des cas

Son Q.I moi, me rend coi…

Devant telle érudition

Langue morte, non !

 

Et quand je suis dans son lit

C’est son Q.I qui me lit

La physique des quantas

Quant-à-moi, je crois que…

 

Sa bouche est sanctuaire

La plus sacrée des prières

S’alanguir est pour moi

Le pire des effrois, c’est froid

 

Sa bouche est sanctuaire

Le plus sacré des mystères

Il est l’ange pour moi

Je lui dis tout bas…

 

Qu’il a les rondeurs d’un "Rodin"

J’aime ! Ça m’incite à…

Il sait la douceur de mes reins

Qui oscillent…

Il sent la tiédeur de mes mains

J’aime ! Ça l’incite à…

Longue est la route de nos plaisirs…

…sémantiques !

 

Qu’il a les rondeurs d’un "Rodin"

J’aime ! Ça m’incite à…

Longue est la route de nos plaisirs…

…sémantiques !

 

Ton Q.I, mon Q.E, ton Q.I

C.Q.F.D.

Ton Q.I, mon Q.E, ton Q.I

C.Q.F.D.

Ton Q.I, mon Q.E, ton Q.I

C.Q.F.D.

Ton Q.I, mon Q.E, ton Q.I

C.Q.F.D.

Down in the workshop all the elves were makin' toys
For the good Gentile girls and the good Gentile boys
When the boss busted in, nearly scared 'em half to death
Had a rifle in his hands and cheap whiskey on his breath

 

From his beard to his boots he was covered with ammo
Like a big fat drunk disgruntled Yuletide Rambo
And he smiled as he said with a twinkle in his eye,
"Merry Christmas to all, now you're all gonna die!"

 

The night Santa went crazy
The night St. Nick went insane
Realized he'd been gettin' a raw deal
Something finally must have snapped in his brain

 

Well, the workshop is gone now, he decided to bomb it
Everywhere you'll find pieces of Cupid and Comet
And he tied up his helpers and he held the elves hostage
And he ground up poor Rudolph into reindeer sausage

 

He got Dancer and Prancer with an old German Luger
And he slashed up Dasher just like Freddy Krueger
And he picked up a flamethrower and he barbequed Blitzen
And he took a big bite and said, "It tastes just like chicken!"

 

The night Santa went crazy
The night Kris Kringle went nuts
Now you can't hardly walk around the North Pole
Without steppin' in reindeer guts

 

There's the National Guard and the FBI
There's a van from the Eyewitness News
And helicopters circlin' 'round in the sky
And the bullets are flyin', the body count's risin'
And everyone's dyin' to know, oh Santa, why?
My my my my my my
You used to be such a jolly guy

 

Yes, Virginia, now Santa's doing time
In a Federal prison for his infamous crime
Hey little friend now, don't you cry no more tears
He'll be out with good behavior in seven hundred more years

 

But now Vixen's in therapy and Donner's still nervous
And the Elves all got jobs working for the Postal Service

And they say Mrs. Clause, she's on the phone every night
With her lawyer negotiating the movie rights

 

They're talkin' bout, the night Santa went crazy
The night St. Nicholas flipped
Broke his back for some milk and cookies
Sounds to me like he was tired of gettin' gypped

 

Whoa oh, the night Santa went crazy
The night St. Nick went insane
Realized he's gettin' a raw deal
Something finally must have snapped in his brain
Whoa oh, something finally must have snapped in his brain
Tell ya, something finally must have snapped in his brain

Now I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a gonna go
When the volcano blow

 

Let me say now I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a gonna go
When the volcano blow

 

Ground she's movin' under me
Tidal waves out on the sea
Sulfur smoke up in the sky
Pretty soon we learn to fly

 

Let me hear ya now I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a gonna go
When the volcano blow

 

Now my girl quickly say to me
Mon you better watch your feet
Lava come down soft and hot
You better lava me now or lava me not

 

Let me say now I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a gonna go
When the volcano blow

 

No time to count what I'm worth
'Cause I just left the planet earth
Where I go I hope there's rum
Not to worry monsoon come

 

Now I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a gonna go
When the volcano blow

 

One more now I don't know (ah he don't know)
I don't know (he don't know, mon)
I don't know where I'm a gonna go
When the volcano blow

 

But I don't want to land in New York City
Don't want to land in Mexico (no no no)
Don't want to land on no Three Mile Island
Don't want to see my skin aglow (no no no)

 

Don't want to land in Commanche Sky Park
Or in Nashville, Tennessee (no no no)
Don't want to land in no San Juan airport
Or the Yukon Territory (no no no)

 

Don't want to land no San Diego
Don't want to land in no Buzzards Bay (no no no)
Don't want to land on no Ayatollah
I got nothing more to say

 

I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a gonna go
When the volcano blow

 

Just a one more, I don't know (he don't know)
I don't know (I don't know, man)
I don't know where I'm a gonna go
When the volcano blow

The water's cold, deep too
When the ice all melts, we're fish food
Not to question your beliefs, baby, not to be rude
But you better wrap your head around the magnitude


Of living on a volcano
When's it gonna blow?
Living on a volcano
You'll be the first to know


Well, we can't save the whales, we got some bigger fish to fry
Can't waste no money growing trees with this election to buy
Watch 'em vanish from the earth like it's part of God's plan
Climate change is just a hoax, and so is monkey to man


There's all kinds of theories and you can't argue that
But just a couple hundred years ago, this world was still flat
So open your minds and open up your eyes
You might be in for a big surprise

 

When you're living on a volcano
When's it gonna blow?
Living on a volcano
We'll be the first to know
We'll be the first to know


Well, we came in with a bang but we're all fading out
With the next big wave or the next big drought
We're making a killing, we're passing the buck
But you won't need money, just a whole lotta luck


When you're living on a volcano
When's it gonna blow?
Living on a volcano
We'll be the first to know
We'll be the first to know

I am not here
Not to do the impossible
I have not come
Not to move every mountain for you
I do not sojourn
Not to chant down things unkind and untrue
I will not go
'Til our hands mend the world anew

 

I am not here
Not to do the impossible
I do not sing
Not to make every maiden swoon
I do not come
Not to offer my very life as a love song
I will not go
'Til we witness every flower bloom

 

(¡Viva Love!)
From your red heart grows the green tree
Let the bluebird rest from her long flight
May no darkness fall and where you choose to rise
Let there be light!

So it goes, so it goes
So it glows, yes it glows
Yes it grows, yes it grows
See it flowerin'

 

I am not here
Not to do the impossible
I will quit
Once we have laughed in the face of death
I do not come
Not to revoke the impunity which ignorance mars the ages
I will not go
Until hatred draws its last breath

 

I am not here
Not to do the impossible
I do not mean
Not to mend every mother's breaking heart
I did not come
To bear less than more of my share of the weight of the world
I will not go
Before you know it is impossible we part

   It may not exactly be poetry....but I like it.   And for the record Jamaica Mistacia qualifies as a reggae edda.
