C'est un peu comme attendre une étoile
Comme attendre le Messie
C'est un peu comme tendre sa voile
Et attendre le chergui
C'est un peu comme une longue prière
Qu'on ne fait que dans son lit
Un peu désespérant
D'attendre son pays
C'est un peu comme attendre qu'une mère
Lave les planchers salis
C'est plutôt même un peu le contraire
Ce sont les jeunes aujourd'hui
Qui secouent toute la vieille poussière
Jettent les idées ternies
C'est un peu inquiétant
D'attendre son pays
Refrain :
C'est un peu comme attendre au théâtre
Que le spectacle commenceOn trépigne, on a hâte
De voir les performances
Faut qu'le casting soit le bon
Pour qu'le peuple se lève d'un bond
C'est un peu comme attendre un traîneau
Au-dessus des cheminées
C'est un peu comme attendre un cadeau
Mais toujours être oublié
On n'croit plus à l'habit rouge et blanc
On n'veut plus se déguiser
C'est un présent
Tout bleu que l'on veut déballer
Refrain
Se lève d'un bond
On ne peut pas attendre
Que des feux viennent prendre
Nos forêts, notre langue
Qu'est-ce qu'on f'rait de nos cendres ?
On est là qu'on piétine
Un pays plein d'promesses
Faut-il aller en Chine
Pour savoir nos richesses ?
On attend de tracer les confins
D'un pays déjà formé
Souligner le contour du jardin
Qui nous fleurit sous les pieds
C'est un peu comme attendre le train
Qui nous attend lui aussi
C'est un peu insensé
D'attendre son pays
C'est un peu inquiétant
D'attendre son pays
Non mais qu'est-ce qu'on attend
Pour dev'nir un pays ?
