Michel Fugain

Lyrics Un enfant Michel Fugain

Un enfant


Un enfant
Qu'on envoie jouer en Afghanistan
Avec un fusil et des balles dedans
Une jolie tenue léopard
Et un casque en Kevlar

Un enfant
Très loin de chez lui et de ses parents
Qui joue aux cowboys et aux talibans
Qu'on emmène en hélicoptère
Aux confins du désert

Nous reste- t-il assez
De pierres et de regrets
Pour faire et faire encore
Des monuments aux morts

Un enfant
Qui joue à cache-cache dans un champ de mines
Avec une kalach' cachée dans des ruines
Photos choc pour les reporters
Et le prix Pulitzer
Et l'enfant
Qu'on a déguisé en libérateur
Qui venait jouer au ballon chasseur
Se dit que les dés sont pipés
Que c'est lui le gibier

Nous reste- t-il assez
De pierres et de regrets
Pour faire et faire encore
Des monuments aux morts

Un enfant
Est tombé quelque part au moyen-âge
Pendant que sa famille était à la plage
Et que nos supers présidents
Déguisaient d'autres enfants

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics UN ENFANT of MICHEL FUGAIN is also present in the album Bon an mal an (2012)
