Pas besoin d´une boule de cristal
Pour voir que la terre tourne mal
Pas besoin non plus d´être un foudre de guerre
Pour s´apercevoir que tout fonctionne à l´envers
Le plus fidèle reflet du futur
Il est dans la musique, la peinture
Le cinéma, la danse ou bien la littérature
On peut encore gommer pour effacer les ratures
Et loin des philosophes, des prophètes
Des tyrans, des empereurs d´opérette
Le monde appartient aux plus sages d´entre nous
Les savants, les poètes et les fous
Ce sont eux qui labourent, qui sèment et qui vendangent
Les vignes de nos rêves étranges
Et ce sont eux qui rallument, certains soirs de déprime
La petite étincelle d´espoir qui nous taquine
Chevaliers de l´imaginaire
Et navigateurs solitaires
Ils s´embarquent sans carte, sans guide et sans boussole
Pendant que, sur le quai, l´humanité se désole
Le soleil est au bord de l´éclipse
Et la nature humaine au bord de l´apocalypse
Mensonges, hypocrisie, faux-semblants, simagrées
Langue de bois, croix de fer et tout est consommé
Alors, de qui viendront à présent
Les messages, les présages qu´on attend
Si la vie fait confiance à ses meilleurs atouts
Des savants, des poètes et des fous
Car ce sont eux qui labourent, qui sèment et qui vendangent
Les vignes de nos rêves étranges
Et ce sont eux qui rallument, certains soirs de déprime
La toute petite parcelle d´espoir qui nous ranime
Ni Bible, ni Coran, ni Thora
Ne pourront dessiner ce que demain sera
Mais les humains, je pense, ont ce pouvoir immense
Hérité du creuset des âges et des consciences
Le plus fidèle reflet du futur
Il est dans la pensée, l´écriture
Dans la page qui manque, dans l´esquisse, l´épure
On peut encore gommer lorsque la scène est trop dure
On pourrait tout changer pour demain
Bâtir un autre avenir de nos mains
Un monde où règneraient les plus sages d´entre nous (2x)
Les savants, les poètes et les fous
