Elle changeait les draps de l'hôtel
Les traces de doigts sur les poubelles
Petite hirondelle, au milieu des corbeaux
Elle chantait "Desperado"
Moi, j'avais du retard sur le sommeil
Je m'étais fait doubler par le soleil
Elle de l'autre côté du couloir
Elle faisait chanter les miroirs
J'ai passé une heure de sa vie
Une heure sous le soleil d'Algérie
Sous la course des planètes
Y'a des moments qu'on regrette
Derrière ses paupières mi-closes
Je voyais plus de gris que de rose
Quand je suis parti, j'ai bien compris
Que je perdais quelque chose
Ses enfants qui font rien à l'école
Et qui ont les poches pleines de tubes de colle
Et toute façon personne ne t'aide
Quand tu t'appelles Saïd ou Mohamed
C'est le ciel en têle ondulée pour toujours
C'est la fenêtre sur la troisième cour
C'est le cri des voisines plein les oreilles
Et les heures de mauvais sommeil
Mais s'il y a quelqu'un autour qui comprend
Le mauvais français le musulman,
Sous la course des planètes
Ca serait bien qu'il s'inquiète
Avant que ses paupières n'explosent
Qu'elle prenne ce gris en overdose
Quand je suis parti j'ai bien compris
Qu'on y pouvait quelque chose...
Toi t'envoies dix francs
Pour les enfants du Gange
Parce que t'as vu les photos qui dérangent
T'envoies dix francs
Pour les enfants d'ailleurs
Parce que t'as vu les photos qui font peur
Et elle que tu croises en bas de chez toi
Elle que tu croises en bas de chez toi...
Depuis je suis retourné à Marseille
Ses amis n'ont pas de nouvelles
Y'a trop d'hirondelles
Ou trop de corbeaux
Elle a du changer de ghetto
Moi, je crois plutôt qu'elle
Change les draps d'un autre hôtel
D'autres traces de doigts
Sur d'autres poubelles
De l'autre côté d'un autre couloir
Elle doit faire chanter les miroirs
Chanter les miroirs
The lyrics SAÏD ET MOHAMED of FRANCIS CABREL is also present in the album Quelqu'un de l'intérieur (1983)
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
