Jacques


Parfois c'est par la voix d'une recrue
qu'on entend le vétéran
Mais c'est toujours parce qu'il y a des vétérans qu'il y a des recrues

Y a toujours son portrait
sur une des pages du journal
il porte sur ses traits
Une fatigue caricaturale

Il sacrifie sa vie
Pour une idée, un idéal
il bosse jour et nuit
il est vaillant comme un cheval

Dans de glauques locaux
il s'agite sous des néons
En livrant des propos
teintés d'ardeur et de passion

Et des millions de fois
il répétera la même chanson
avec le même émoi
avec la même conviction
il va pour le sourire
de ceux qui couperont le ruban
De l'énorme présent
qu'il est entrain de leur offrir

Bien sûr, il prend de l'âge
mais rien ne brouille sa vision
Il transpire le courage
Il va au bout de sa mission

Il nage comme un dauphin
dans un espèce d'océan
ou ce sont les requins
qui donnent des bisous aux enfants

Et qui tendent leur dos
pour mieux qu'on leur tende les mains
et qui cachent leurs crocs
pour mieux qu'on se trompe au scrutin

Non c'est pas pour le titre
et non c'est pas pour le pouvoir
Que ce monsieur persiste
Il signe déjà notre histoire

quand parfois sa voix tremble
c'est que les vérités sont lourdes
c'est qu'ça l'rend impatient
Lorsque les oreilles sont sourdes

Parfois c'est par la vois d'une recrue
Qu'on entend un vétéran
Mais c'est toujours parce qu'il y a des recrues
qu'il y a des vétérans

Un jour quand nous saurons
toute l'ampleur de notre chance
Quand nous arroserons
la fin de notre indépendance

Faudra pas oublié
qu'il a travaillé
comme un fou
y'a pas eu que René
Il y a Jacques....il y a nous.

Parfois c'est par la vois d'une recrue
Qu'on entend un vétéran
Mais c'est toujours parce qu'il y a des recrues
qu'il y a des vétérans

Parfois c'est par la vois d'une recrue
Qu'on entend un vétéran
Mais c'est toujours parce qu'il y a des recrues
qu'il y a des vétérans

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
