Médiocratie


Question gun & machicoulis
un GI vaut 2000 hoplites
mais au rayon philosophie
on est resté chez Démocrite
on joue les chasseurs d’arc-en-ciel
meublés chez Starck & compagnie
mais on sort d’un vieux logiciel
made in Néandertal-city…

médiocratie… médiacrité !
frères humains dans nos quartiers
ça manque un peu d’humanité
médiocratie… médiacrité !
ça manque un peu de verbe aimer
de respect, de fraternité
médiocratie… médiacrité !

dans le grand jeu des anonymes
la fiction s’adoube au virtuel
on s’additionne on tchate on frime
& l’on se soustrait au réel
baisés grave & manipulés
devant nos écrans de facebook
on n’a qu’un pseudo pour rêver
& s’inventer un autre look

médiocratie… médiacrité !
frères humains dans nos quartiers
ça manque un peu d’humanité
médiocratie… médiacrité !
ça manque un peu de verbe aimer
de respect, de fraternité
médiocratie… médiacrité !
frères humains frangins damnés
sous la plage il y’a des pavés
médiocratie… médiacrité !
des pavés bien intentionnés
pour un enfer climatisé

devant toutes ces news quo nous soûlent
ces flashs qui nous anesthésient
DJ God a perdu la boule
& mixe à l’envers nos envies
devons-nous croire à un réveil
dans l’au-delà des jours fériés
avec la photo du soleil
brillant sur nos calendriers ?

médiocratie… médiacrité !
frères humains dans nos quartiers
ça manque un peu d’humanité
médiocratie… médiacrité !
ça manque un peu de verbe aimer
de respect, de fraternité
médiocratie… médiacrité !

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
