Locomotive d'or,
Aussi riche en pistons,
Aussi chargée d'essieux
Que de siècles un sépulcre,
Locomotive d'or,
Croqueuse d'un charbon
Plus fruité, plus juteux
Que l'est la canne à sucre,
Locomotive d'or,
Tchi ki kou tchi ki kou
Sans un soupçon de suie,
Sans une ombre de lucre,
Tu me fis visiter
Tes Congo, tes Gabon
Tes Oubangui-Chari,
Et tes Côte-d'Ivoire,
Où de blancs éléphants
M'aspergeaient de mémoire,
Locomotive d'or
Tchi ki kou tchi ki kou
Locomotive d'or,
Ka kan ka kan ka kan
Je reluquais le rail,
Assis sur ma valoche
Et l'horloge vaquait
Dans l'espace vaquant
Le silence avouait
Quelque chose qui cloche
Quand soudain retentit
La clameur de Tarzan
Quand soudain j'entendis
Un autre son de cloche,
Tu arrivais enfin
Du fond du cœur du temps,
Tes plumes de vapeur
Sur ta face de tigre,
Tes faisceaux de sagaies,
Tes boucliers de cuivre
Locomotive d'or
Ka kan ka kan ka kan
Locomotive d'or,
De bondir à ton bord
Me donna même joie
Qu'au sexe de la femme
Mon corps ne m'aidait plus
Qu'à survoler mon corps,
Ma chair devint esprit
Et mon âme tam-tam
Oui, oui, tam-tam d'âme,
Partout dedans! Dehors!
Et de toutes ses dents,
Succulente banane,
Kenny Clarke riait
Comme un enfant s'endort
Comme un enfant s'endort
Ayant vu un miracle,
Comme un enfant s'endort
Dans l'?uf ailé de Pâques
Dans l'amour tournoyant,
Locomotive d'or...
Tout le monde va descendre
Dans la gare divine,
Dans la gare divine
Le chef de gare est aimé,
Dans la gare divine
La locomotive d'or
Va souffler
Comme un enfant s'endort
La locomotive d'or
Comme un enfant s'endort
La locomotive d'or...
