Dans ce quartier, il y a plus de misère
C'était écrit encore hier
Dans un journal qui traînait par terre
De temps en temps, il y a des hommes d'affaires
Qui veulent construire des cages de verre
Des bureaux et des espaces verts
Mais il y a deux petits yeux qui voient ça de haut
Deux petites flammes, comme des flamencos
Heureusement qu'il y a Mandoline
Petite enfant, petite merveille
Heureusement qu'il y a Mandoline
Mandoline danse au soleil
Tous ses grands frères sont des mauvais garçons
Qui finiront tous en prison
C'est ce qu'on leur promet, du haut des balcons
Si Dieu n'existe pas, le salaud !
C'est qu'il nous laisse tout sur le dos
Et on se dit souvent que c'est vraiment trop
Mais il y a deux petits yeux, qui voient ça de haut
Deux petites flammes, comme des flamencos
Heureusement qu'il y a Mandoline
Petit amour, petite merveille
Heureusement qu'il y a Mandoline
Mandoline danse au soleil
Mandoline
Mandoline...
Michel Berger, born Michel Jean Hamburger (Paris, 1953 – Paris, 1992), was a French singer-songwriter and record producer. Considered one of the greatest exponents of French pop music, he achieved success in the 1970s and 1980s with songs like "Lucie", "Le Paradis blanc" and "On ira". Berger collaborated with numerous artists, including France Gall, whom he was married to from 1980 to 1986. His music is characterized by catchy melodies, poetic lyrics and a clear influence of progressive rock. Besides composing for himself, Berger wrote songs for other artists, including Dalida and Sheila. Among his most important albums are "L'amour à la française" (1980) and "Michel Berger" (1982). His premature death at the age of 39 left a void in the French music scene.
