Mon grand-pre tait un marin,
Il a d mourir sur une le,
Mon pre avait une ferme,
Et moi je suis sa seule fille.
Je me suis enfuie avec ce voyou
D'un village des alentours,
Aujourd'hui il s'touffe dans son alcool,
Et me laisse seule
Avec nos trois gosses nourrir.
la fabrique c'est pas facile,
C'est pas non plus trs dur,
Mais ce sont ces heures qui dfilent,
Et puis cette horloge sur le mur.
Le premier reve qui passe
L'aide tenir jusqu' midi,
O j'ai quelques minutes d'espace
Pour prendre un sandwich,
Boire un caf, et m'asseoir.
Autrement c'est moi et la machine,
Jusqu' ce que la sirne le dcide,
Jusqu'au bout de l'aprs-midi,
Jusqu'au bout de ma vie.
Malgr moi mon cur s'en retourne
Vers cette maison dans les terres,
O j'ai pass tant d'annes d'amour
danser sur les bras de mon pre.
Ces histoires de marins perdus,
Ces orages sur le lac Eri,
Ces navires jamais disparus,
Avec leurs voiles grandes
Comme des morceaux de ciel.
Oui mais c'est ma vie qui a t gche,
Et c'est moi qui ai eu tort
De laisser cette fabrique
Pour bien utiliser mon corps.
Moi je vais rentrer chez moi ce soir,
Je vais regarder mes mains,
Je vais me dire qu'au moins une fois
J'aurais aim avoir la chance
D'aller plus loin.
Mais je vais travailler ici
Et oublier tout ce que je souhaite,
Peut-etre ne jamais rencontrer
L'homme dont le nom
Est sur l'tiquette.
Ce sera moi ou la machine
Jusqu' ce que la sirne le dcide
Jusqu'au bout de l'aprs-midi
Jusqu'au bout de ma vie.
The lyrics LA FABRIQUE of FRANCIS CABREL is also present in the album Cabrel public (1984)
Francis Cabrel è un cantautore e chitarrista francese nato ad Agen il 23 novembre 1953. Influenzato da Bob Dylan, ha pubblicato numerosi album che si collocano principalmente nel genere folk, con incursioni occasionali nel blues o nel country. Alcuni dei suoi brani, come "L'encre de tes yeux" e "Petite Marie", sono diventati canzoni d'autore intramontabili nella musica francese. Altri, come "C'etait l'hiver", che racconta il suicidio di una giovane ragazza, sono stati successivamente reinterpretati da artisti come la canadese Isabelle Boulay. Tra i suoi album più importanti ricordiamo "Les Morts de la nuit" (1980) e "Hors-Saison" (1987). Cabrel è noto per le sue melodie orecchiabili, testi poetici e un'interpretazione intensa.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
