Il a sa p'tite boutique
Il multiplie les pains dans du film plastique
C'est un gars bien un rien excentrique
Comme souvent les fils uniques
Il a son p'tit commerce
Il offre des pépins aux filles sous l'averse
Donne le bras à la dame qui traverse
Un gars moderne, en jean et Converse
Mais comme il sait c'qui s'passe autour
Qu'il n'est ni aveugle ni sourd
Sous sa veste de toile
Il a son gilet pare-balles
Et comme il a très bien compris
Le monde dans lequel on vit
Il ne sort jamais sans
Son petit colt élégant
Il a une classe folle
Il dit des mots qui envoutent, qui s'envolent
Par dessus les toits, les paraboles
Il dit "Faut surtout pas qu'on s'affole"
Il parle les mains jointes
De son père au ciel, de sa mère une sainte
Qui aurait pu marcher sans laisser d'empreinte
Il dit "Soyez cool, n'ayez crainte".
Mais comme il sait c'qui s'passe autour
Qu'il n'est ni aveugle ni sourd
Sous sa veste de toile
Il a son gilet pare-balles
Et comme il a très bien compris
Le monde dans lequel on vit
Il ne sort jamais sans
Son petit colt élégant
C'est pas du tout qui vous pensez
Lui il a 35 ans passés
Sa fiancée Marie-Marlène
Il la voit chaque fin de semaine
Il a des amis bien placés
Au comptoir de certains cafés
la bande avec laquelle il traine
Ça tourne autour de la douzaine
Il leur dit que tout que tout finira bien par changer
Que tout finira bien,
Que tout finira bien par changer
Il leur dit que tout que tout finira bien par changer
Que tout finira bien,
Que tout finira bien par changer
Mais comme il sait c'qu'y s'passe autour
Qu'il n'est ni aveugle ni sourd
Et comme il a très très bien compris
C'est un gars bien, un rien excentrique
Comme souvent fils unique
The lyrics LE FILS UNIQUE of FRANCIS CABREL is also present in the album L'essentiel 1977-2017 (2017)
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.
