J'ai roulé 400 milles
Sous un ciel fâché
Aux limites de la ville
Mon coeur à clanché
Les gros flashes apparaissent
Dans mon âme égarée
Les fantômes se dressent
À chaque pouce carré.
Revenir d'exil
Comporte des risques
Comme rentrer une aiguille
Dans un vieux disque.
Y a eu ben du progrès
Ben d'l'asphalte ainsi d'suite;
J'me demande qui je s'rais
Si j'tais resté icitte
Une peine imbuvable
À qui la faute?
J'étais juss' pus capab'
D'la voir avec un autre.
Mais c'est tout oublié
Chu r'dev'nu un homme;
Le ti-coeur pomponné
S'en vient voir ses vieux chums.
Salut les apaches,
Salut les crottés.
Vous me trouvez le stash
Moi je paie le party.
J'entends la fonderie qui rush;
Pour ceux qui l'savent pas
On y brûle la roche
Et des tonnes de bons gars.
Les grandes cheminées
Éternelles comme l'enfer;
Quand le gaz m'a pogné
Chu v'nu tout à l'envers
Entendez-vous la rumeur
La loi d'la compagnie?
"Il faudra que tu meures
Si tu veux viv' mon ami."
J'ai poussé mon p'tit change
Dans l'trou du téléphone;
Sentiment étrange
Je r'joins pu personne.
"Time flies" que j'me dis,
M'en vas faire de mon best.
J'ai marché dans la nuit
En cherchant un orchestre.
J'prends ma chambre à Capri
J'aboutis dans la même;
Même brûlures su'l tapis,
Même vue sur la "main".
Comment dormir dans un lit
Où t'a baisé des anges?
Je sens monter la folie
Je descends dans le lounge.
Dans la flamme d'un briquet
Un visage intrigant;
C'te gars-là je l'connais,
Bonyeu mais c'est Satan!
Long time no see
Fait pas chaud là, mets-en.
J'ai passé proche l'embrasser
À force que j'étais content.
Y m'dit : "La gang est splittée
C'était rien qu'une époque.
Sa valeur est tombée
Comme le prix de la coppe.
Y s'sont toutes faites buster
L'un après l'autre;
À la fin y est resté
Moi, mon ombre pis son coat.
Les aut' ont farmé leu' yeules,
Y déclarent à l'impôt.
Nouvelle clientèle
Et musique de robot.
Quand les downs de tes highs
Te défoncent l'intérieur
Tu t'engages comme bétail:
Pas d'malheur, pas d'bonheur
Y ont vendu l'amour bandé
Pour de la tendresse
Ils se sont enfermés
Dans la chambre de commerce.
À c't'heure chu quas'ment tout seul
À fournir à'Plaza
Qu'est c'est qu'le monde veulent
Qu'est-ce que la loi veut pas.
A peut v'nir me chercher
Pour m'passer les menottes;
Quarante ans d'liberté
De nos jours, c't'une bonne cut.
Y a personne qui m'encule
J'ai gardé mes bons nerfs;
Comment ça vaut ça, calcule!
Chu déjà millionnaire.
Coté coeur, ben content;
Y'a du monde su'la ligne.
Quand les chums sont en d'dans
Moi, j'm'occupe des darlings.
Tu t'rappelles, ton gros kick,
La belle Rose-Aimée.
M'as t'en pousser une comique
Moi pis elle, c'est steady."
(Quand y m'a dit ça...)
C'est renté comme un clou,
Un couteau dans'patate.
La suture a t'nu l'coup
Well, let's drink to that.
Le jour s'est l'vé sur Rouyn
'ec des gros rayons d'or
J'ai jasé'ec mon instinct
Et j'ai couché dans mon char
