Quand je courais dans les rigoles, quand je mouillais mes godillots
Quand j'allais encore à l'école et qu'il fallait'se lever tôt
J'avais à peine ouvert la porte et vu la Méditerranée
J'étais déjà dans la mer Morte juste au pied du grand escalier
En attendant que quelqu'un sorte pour jaillir comme une fusée
Puis je descendais le grand fleuve qui partait de la rue de Lévis
Qui passait par la rue Salneuve et se perdait dans l'infini
Alors, au square des Batignolles, je passais le torrent à gué
Pour voir les pigeons qui s'envolent quand on court pour les attraper
Alors, au square des Batignolles, je passais le torrent à gué
Pour voir les pigeons qui s'envolent quand on court pour les attraper
Sur le pont guettant les nuages, on respirait la folle odeur
Qui se dégageait au passage des locomotives à vapeur
Et au coeur de la fumée blanche, tout le reste disparaissait
On était dans une avalanche qui venait de nous avaler
On était dans une avalanche qui venait de nous avaler
J'étais un faiseur de miracles et tout le long de mon chemin
Je balayais tous les obstacles d'un simple geste de la main
En regardant les feux, quand même mais simplement pour traverser
Sûr que c'est moi qui, sans problème, décidais de les faire passer
Sûr que c'est moi qui, sans problème, décidais de les faire passer
Je cours encore dans les rigoles, je veux encore me lever tôt
Et je vais encore à l'école pour apprendre à chanter plus beau
Mais j'ai grandi jusqu'aux nuages où je m'invente un univers
Bien plus tranquille et bien plus sage que ne l'est ce monde à l'envers
Mais j'ai grandi jusqu'aux nuages où je m'invente un univers
Bien plus tranquille et bien plus sage que ne l'est ce monde à l'envers.
