Des gens formidable


On serait des gens formidables
Des êtres parfaits
Des chanteurs charmants, charitables
Humbles et discrets
Contre toutes les injustices
Et de tous les combats
Mais on est normalement égoïste
Et c'est chacun chez soi

On ferait des chansons éternelles
Et en quelques couplets
On ferait la Terre plus belle
L'homme moins mauvais
Ça ferait de nous des êtres rares
Et comme immortels
Mais on fait des petites chansons qui se fanent
Et on se fane avec elles

Et on se fane avec elles
On se fane avec elles

On ferait des chansons utiles
À la société
Pour en dénoncer les dérives
Et les absurdités
Comme tirer sur un oiseau qui chante
Une cartouche en plein coeur
Mais on fait des petites chansons hésitantes
Et on regarde ailleurs

On dirait des choses essentielles
Et de toute beauté
Comme on serait né avec des ailes
Ça serait pas compliqué
On aurait des mots qui touchent
et qui transpercent
Les traîtres et les menteurs
Mais on fait de petites chansons
pour le commerce
Et on tremble de peur

On tremble de peur
Et on tremble de peur

On serait des artistes immenses
Des divinités
Considérés comme une chance
Pour l'humanité
Il suffirait qu'on apparaisse
Pour que le monde soit heureux
Mais en fait, les gens nous aiment
et puis nous laissent
Et c'est sans doute mieux

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
