J'courais dans' rue après Jésus
Y s'vire de bord, y m'tire dessus
J'ouvre les yeux pis j'vois saint Pierre
Y m'dit : « Pogne-toi deux bières. Sont dans glacière. »
Pis y m'dit : « Hey là, viens-t'en mon p'tit gars ça s'passe par là. »
Y'a trop d'lumière j'vois rien icitte
Mais j'entends Jésus qui m'invite
Assis à une table a'ec Ben Laden
Pis l'PDG de CNN
J'me dis : « Hey là, y vont-tu m'dire tout haut c'qui pensent tout bas ? »
Faque j'm'assois
Pa'ce que j'ai une faim loup
La waitress me fait les yeux doux
Mais j'check comme faut pis j'comprends pas
Elle a la face à Mandela
Pis j'me dis : « Hey là, y s'passe queq'chose icitte pis on me l'dit pas. »
Ben Laden mangeait des frites
Y'étanchait sa soif à l'eau bénite
Pendant qu'Ti-Jésus s'taillait les veines
Mandela suçait sa graine
Pis j'me dis : « Hey là, y s'passe queq'chose icitte moi j'm'en vas d'là. »
Soudainement ma peau noircit
On me dit : « Ta yeule ! T'as rien compris. »
À grand coup de fouette quelqu'un m'agresse
J'entends Jim Crow qui chante la messe
J'me dis : « Hey là, y s'passe queq'chose icitte on s'entend pas. »
J'vois des Anglais au coin de la rue
Michèle Lalonde leur pitche des bombes
En '74 après les ordres, ça prend l'Black Block pour faire un monde
Pis j'me dis : « Hey là, y vont pogner des guns, shooter dans l'tas. »
J'aboutis ch't'au Quai des brumes,
Où l'bleuet y m'sert pas d'la tarte
En haut du bar j'vois une pancarte :
« Vide la place avant qu'tu partes. »
