J'ai pas demandé à venir au monde
pour trois minutes, quelques secondes
le temps d'une chanson trop usée
accrochée à vos passés
j'ai pas demandé d'être un symbole
dessiné dans vos livres d'école
entre les lignes d'un cahier
en graffiti, presque effacé
comme un enfant qui tend les mains
j'ai fait sourire vos lendemains
j'ai des images plein les yeux
a partager depuis longtemps
et pourtant, les voulez-vous vraiment?
sauvez mon âme!
j'ai trouvé le chemin
mais de vous j'ai besoin
pour aller plus loin
sauvez-moi des flammes
sauvez les racines sous mon arbre
gardez mon nom dans vos prières
comme si demain était hier
laissez l'échelle à vos fenêtres
et puis chantez le troubadour.
vous le saviez déjà peut-être
mais le poète est de retour
laissez les belles aux yeux qui brillent
eteindre le compte à rebours
pour qu'à jamais le temps s'arrête
pour que l'histoire dure pour toujours
je suis venu vous faire la cour
en racontant mes peines d'amour
je suis venu vous dire "je t'aime"
avec des mots de tous les jours
et pourtant, m'entendez-vous vraiment?
sauvez mon âme!
j'ai trouvé le chemin
mais de vous j'ai besoin
pour aller plus loin
sauvez-moi des flammes
sauvez les racines sous mon arbre
gardez mon nom dans vos prières
comme si demain était hier
chus pas né dans un bass drum
chus pas l'invention d'un grand homme
j'ai rien à me faire pardonner
même les mauvais coups du passé
mes soirées de gars chez terry
mes vieilles habitudes, mes virées
mes nuits de tapage dans l'garage
les soirs de main avec mon band
chus plutôt du genre ordinaire
le portrait tout craché de mon père
chus l'anti-bum du quartier
qui chante ses tounes au monde entier
chus pas un rocker (3x)
j'veux que ça frappe, j'veux que ça cogne
mais sans trop déranger personne
parait que j'ai rien à déclarer
pas coupable de ma célébrité
pour le meilleur, pour le pire
on m'a pas laissé le droit de choisir
choisir le chemin par où passer
toujours tout droit, la tête baissée
je regrette rien par-dessus-tout
vous êtes fidèles au rendez-vous
c'est pas la peine de m'en vouloir
même si des fois c'était pas clair
j'voudrais être sage comme une image
comme je voudrais que ça déménage
chus pas un rocker (3)
j'veux que ça frappe, j'veux que ça cogne
mais sans trop déranger personne
y a de ces fois où j'aimerais bien
revenir sur ce long chemin
un peu moins blanc, un peu moins sain
les mains plus sales et mine de rien
pas demander la permission
ou simplement dire non
avant de chanter l'amour
me défiler comme un vautour
j'aurais pu attiser le feu
qui déjà brulait dans tes yeux
dire des choses qui choquent, qui dérangent
créer un monstre un peu étrange
de faire ma révolution
et simplement dire oui
a toutes mes envies
chu pas un rocker (3x)
tout est venu comme dans un rêve
oublié quand se lève le jour
a trop chercher, trop loin sa quête
on fini par faire demi tour
j'ai suivi la trace, le chemin
qui me ramenait à vous
on était dû, faut croire, peut-être
pour que cette fois soit pour toujours
comme un vieux frère, un ami
qui, au fond, n'est jamais parti
celui que vous avez vu naître
et qui, un jour, s'est envolé
a gardé de vous toute la beauté
sauvez mon âme! j'ai trouvé le chemin
mais de vous j'ai besoin pour aller plus loin
