Quand la Terre se fendit
C'était sous le règne des bandits
Qui avaient tout défiguré
Chaque ville entouré par
Son cortège de hangars
Ses parkings alignés
Les autoroutes étaient pleine
Des camions en file indienne
De convois bloqués au péage
On se parlait presque pas
Et chacun pressait le pas
Son écran au ras du visage
Le pays d'à côté est couvert de nuages
[Refrain]
[Couplet 2]
On séparait par croyance
Les leçons d'auto-défense
Les rues interdites d'entrée
La fumée ou le brouillard
Impossible de savoir
Chaque soir plus épais
On noyait dans du plastique
Des repas automatiques
Que la mer rejetait sur les plages
Braves gens dignitaires
Tout le monde laissait faire
Par profit ou manque de courage
Le pays d'à côté est couvert de nuages
[Refrain]
[Couplet 3]
Sous les pieds bousculés des moutons qui s'affolent
Le berger à genou qui cherche la boussole
Et les loups affamés qui attendent au grillage
Tombé juste au milieu de la cour d'une école
L'arc-en-ciel démonté qui traîne sur le sol
Et tout le monde croit à des enfantillages
Le pays d'à côté est couvert de nuages
[Refrain]
[Couplet 4]
Quand la Terre se fendit
C'était sous le règne des bandits
Qui avaient bien prévu le coup
Bien tirer la couverture
Profiter de la nature
Disparue on ne sait ou
Sous les casques et les enceintes
Des télés jamais éteintes
Tournait le même message
Pardon de le répéter mais
Y a pas lieu de s'inquiéter
Le pays d'à côté est couvert de nuages
[Refrain]
[Pont]
Y a pas lieu de s'inquiéter
C'est le pays d'à côté
Le pays d'à côté qui est couvert de nuages
[Refrain]
[Outro]
Ne ressemblez jamais à ces moutons qui s'affolent
Disait le berger un jour qui cherchait la boussole
Le pays d'à côté est couvert de nuages
Francis Cabrel is a French singer-songwriter and guitarist born in Agen on November 23, 1953. Heavily influenced by Bob Dylan, he has released numerous albums that primarily fall within the folk genre, with occasional forays into blues or country. Several of his songs, such as "L'encre de tes yeux" and "Petite Marie", have become enduring favorites in French music. Others, such as "C'etait l'hiver", about the suicide of a young girl, have since been covered by other artists such as Canadian Isabelle Boulay.
