Tu n'es qu'un oiseau d’passage
Un p'tit gars sur le chemin
En plein échouage
Tu n’vaux pas un bout d’pain
Tu découvres par hasard
Un air de rien
Tu rentreras tard ce soir
Pour oublier le destin
Et tu te mets à l'envers
Tu ne te rappelles de rien
Et pourtant il y a cet air
épris dans tes reins
Et tu bouges et tu danses
comme si c'était la dernière
Cet air te met en transe, tu décolles de la Terre
Et ça te lève le matin
Te réveille de bonne heure
Et ça revient le soir
C'est un chant de malheur
Et y'a ton coeur qui bat
Encore et encore
Et y’a ta main qui va toujours plus fort
Ça te prendrait le bateau
sur un quai de campagne
Un sac sur le dos
avec pour seule compagne
Cette musique qui t'entète
Et cette histoire, ce rythme dans ta tête
Ces trois accords de guitare
Et ça tourne et ça valse, ouais c'est pire que le manège
Et vas-y que ça t'enlasse, que t'es pris dans le piège
Elle te tendrait même la main sur le bord d'une route
Allez trace ton chemin, on sait ce que ça coûte
Et ça viens le matin
Taper dans ton coeur
Et ça revient le soir
C'est un chant de malheur
Et y'a ton coeur qui bat
Encore et encore
Et y’a ta main qui va
toujours plus fort
Comme une feuille qui tombe
Comme un oiseau se meurt,
abattu a la fronde
touché en plein coeur
Elle est inévitable
Elle entre dans la tête,
comme une prière mémorable, comme un hymne à la fête
Elle rend hommage aux pirates, aux infréquentables,
à vous les accrobates, ceux qui ont mangé à ma table
Aux regards que j'ai croisés,
que je garde dans mon coeur
A toutes nos soirées,
ces moments de chaleur
ça nous prenait au matin,
la main sur le coeur
et ça durait jusqu'au soir
sur un bout de comptoir
C'était pire qu'un mirage,
quand on s'mettaient à sauter
C'était comme un soir d'orage en plein coeur de l'été
Quand on creusera ma tombe je veux une dernière fois,
avant de partir dans l'ombre, un ré, un mi, un la,
je veux tous vous voir sourire, entendre vos chuchotements,
ressasser les souvenirs, et raconter à vos enfants
Que la vie est un naufrage,
une illusion,
qu'on est tous de passage
comme dans une chanson
Qu'on vaut à peine 3 accords, que c'est cruel,
que même les plus forts
n'auront pas de rappel
