J'étais un ado pris dans l'inconnu
Marchant dans la ville, arpentant les rues
Perdant dans la foule, enfant claustrophobe
J'avais pour envie de changer le globe
J'écrivais des choses parfois superflues
Que mon entourage trouvait farfelues
Ma voix sur vinyle passait sur les ondes
Ce qui me permet de voir l'autre monde
La première étape fut la normandie
J'entendais des gens crier Claude MC
Y''avait de l'espoir dans cette autre histoire
Y'avait des sourires au fond dans l'auditoire
Après les concerts c'était no barrière
Pas de garde corps, pas de plan de carrière
On se découvrait par de congs récits
Pour tout ce bonheur je vous dis merci
Je ais que plut tard dans mes souvenirs
J'aurai autre chose que de longs soupirs
J'aurai de la joie ete des couleurs vives
E le sentiment d'être toujours ivre
C'est à ton contact que j'évolue
C'est par ta pr'ésence que l'on m'évalue
C'est aussi pour toi que j'écris ces phrases
De l'introspection juste après l'extase
J'espère pour ma part, t'avoir fait du bien
Même une caresse, même trois fois rien
Une note de musique juste un stimuli
Une vrai parole, pas du simili
Parce qu'il est temps de dire que c'qui nous fait c'est toit
Que te rencontrer c'est faire le plein de joie
Voilà pourquoi je n'tourne pas ma langue 7 fois
Pour te dire ceci : merci.
