On la trouvait plutôt jolie, LilyElle arrivait de Somalie, LilyDans un bateau plein d'émigrésQui venaient tous de leur plein gré
Vider les poubelles à Paris Elle croyait qu'on était égaux, LilyAu pays de Voltaire et d'Hugo, LilyMais pour Debussy en revanche
Il faut deux noires pour une blanche
Ça fait un sacré distinguo Elle aimait tant la liberté, LilyElle rêvait de fraternité, LilyUn hôtelier, rue SecrétanLui a précisé en arrivantQu'on ne recevait que les Blancs Elle a déchargé des cageots, LilyElle s'est tapé les sales boulots, LilyElle crie pour vendre ses choux-fleurs
Dans la rue ses frères de couleurL'accompagnent au marteau-piqueur Et quand on l'appelait Blanche-Neige, LilyElle se laissait plus prendre au piège, LilyElle trouvait ça très amusant
Même s'il fallait serrer les dents
Ils auraient été trop contents Elle aima un beau blond frisé, LilyQui était tout prêt à l'épouser, LilyMais la belle-famille lui dit nous
Ne sommes pas racistes pour deux sous
Mais on veut pas de ça chez nous Elle a essayé l'Amérique, LilyCe grand pays démocratique, LilyElle n'aurait pas cru sans le voir
Que la couleur du désespoir
Là-bas aussi, ce fut le noir Mais dans un meeting à Memphis, LilyElle a vu Angela Davis, LilyQui lui dit "viens, ma petite soeur
En s'unissant on a moins peur
Des loups qui guettent le trappeur" Et c'est pour conjurer sa peur, LilyQu'elle lève aussi un poing rageur, LilyAu milieu de tous ces gugusses
Qui mettent le feu aux autobus
Interdits aux gens de couleur Mais dans ton combat quotidien, LilyTu connaîtras un type bien, LilyEt l'enfant qui naîtra un jour
Aura la couleur de l'amourContre laquelle on ne peut rien
Contre laquelle on ne peut rien
Contre laquelle on ne peut rien
Contre laquelle on ne peut rien
Rien... On la trouvait plutôt jolie, LilyElle arrivait de Somalie, LilyDans un bateau plein d'émigrésQui venaient tous de leur plein gré
