La valse des etiquettes


[Répétition 1] :
Je suis le gentil troubadour
Le bûcheron de la chanson
Le fermier du 45 tours
L'écolo du microsillon

[Répétition 2] :
Le Villon de la salle des fêtes
L'artisan de la stéréo
Le bricoleur de la cassette
Le routard de la vidéo

On m'a collé tant d'étiquettes
Au détour de chaque chanson
Je n'ose en chanter davantage
De peur de troubler l'opinion

On m'a donné tellement d'images
Si j'en crois tout ce que l'on dit
Que mon portrait dans les gazettes
Ressemble aux valises à Orly

Je n'ai jamais nourri les oies
Ni les brebis ni les agneaux
Et je me tape sur les doigts
Quand je joue avec un marteau

J'ai beau sourire à toute vapeur
À pied à cheval en auto
J'ai beau vivre à deux cents à l'heure
Quand on me voit dans les journaux...

[Répétition 1]

[Répétition 2]

J'envie parfois la girouette
Elle reste toujours dans le vent
Mais dans le cœur de la tempête
Moi je rame à contre-courant

On me taxe de bucolique
Quand il faudrait être disco
Et quand il faut être alcoolique
On me voit buveur de coco

Je n'entretiens pas de danseuse
Je n'ai pas de manies étranges
Ni d'autre maladie honteuse
Que la guitare qui me démange

Mais comme il faut trouver matière
À parler de ce qu'on entend
Pour les potins de la commère
À défaut d'être ressemblant...

[Répétition 1]

[Répétition 2]

Toujours heureux toujours content
Dans tous ces miroirs déformants
Je m'imagine avec le temps
Vieillard paisible et impotent

À l'abri derrière ma fenêtre
À regarder passer le temps
En écrivant parfois peut-être
Une chanson de temps en temps

Je fuis les modes et les modèles
Et je vis comme vous et moi
En essayant d'être fidèle
À mes vieux rêves d'autrefois

Mais j'aurai beau dire et beau faire
Pour me montrer tel que je suis
Je crois qu'au bout de ma carrière
Et jusqu'à la fin de ma vie...

Je resterai le troubadour
Le bûcheron de la chanson
Le fermier du 45 tours
L'écolo du microsillon

[Répétition 2]
