Quand on le voyait
Il était parfait
Et avait la vie dont les gens rêvaient
Famille charmante
Et une entreprise plus que florissante
Une épouse aimante
Mais en vérité
Il était vidé
Et avait la fuite dans les idées
Tous les jours pourtant
Il remettait son masque souriant
Comme un paravent
L'image que l'on donne
N'est pas toujours la bonne
Volent, volent les hirondelles
Même les beaux plumages
Peuvent être une cage
Elle était distante
Un peu arrogante
On la trouvait snob et condescendante
Toujours à l'écart
Survolant les gens du haut du regard
Froide et sans égards
Mais sa suffisance
N'était que défense
Et un truc pour sauver les apparences
Car cette timide
Avait toujours été en vain avide
D'amitiés solides
L'image que l'on donne
N'est pas toujours la bonne
Volent, volent les hirondelles
Même les beaux plumages
Peuvent être une cage
On disait souvent
Qu'il était avenant
Et qu'il avait l'âme du bon vivant
Homme sans tourment
Qui se laisser aller au gré du vent
Un Roger Bontemps
Mais s'il s'enivrait
C'est qu'il se terrait
Au fond de lui un malaise, un boulet
Et son air gaillard
Tout comme sa façade de fêtard
N'étaient que remparts
L'image que l'on donne
N'est pas toujours la bonne
Volent, volent les hirondelles
Même les beaux plumages
Peuvent être une cage
Volent, volent les hirondelles
L'image que l'on donne
N'est pas toujours la bonne
Volent, volent les hirondelles
Même les beaux plumages
Peuvent être une cage
Volent, volent les hirondelles
Quand elles sont épuisées
Elles piquent du nez

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
