Ouvrez les frontières, ouvrez les frontières ( x 2 )
Vous venez chaque année
L'été comme l'hiver
Et nous on vous reçoit
Toujours les bras ouverts
Vous êtes ici chez vous
Après tout peu importe
On veut partir alors ouvrez nous la porte
Ouvrez les frontières, ouvrez les frontières ( x 2 )
Du Détroit de Gibraltar
Nous sommes des milliers
A vouloir comme vous
venir sans rendez-vous
Nous voulons voyager
Et aussi travailler
Mais nous on vous a pas refusé le visa
Ouvrez les frontières, ouvrez les frontières ( x 2 )
Nous aussi on veut connaître la chance d'étudier
La chance de voir nos rêves se réaliser
Avoir un beau métier
Pouvoir voyager
Connaître ce que vous appelez « liberté »
On veut que nos familles ne manquent plus de rien
On veut avoir cette vie où l'on mange à sa faim
On veut quitter cette misère quotidienne pour de bon
On veut partir d'ici car nous sommes tous en train de péter les plombs
Ouvrez les frontières, ouvrez les frontières ( x 2 )
Laissez nous passer ?
Y a plus une goutte d'eau
Pour remplir notre seau
Ni même une goutte de pluie
Tout au fond du puis
Quand le ventre est vide
Sur le chemin de l'école
Un beau jour il décide
De prendre son envol, nan nan nan nan ...
Ouvrez les frontières, ouvrez les frontières ( x 2 )
Laissez nous passer ?
Ouvrez la porte
Ici on étouffe
On est plein à vouloir du rêve occidental
Ouvrez la porte
Ici la jeunesse s'essouffle
Ne vois tu pas que pour nous c'est vital
Ouvrez les frontières, ouvrez les frontières ( x 2 )
Laissez nous passer ?
Vous avez pris nos plages
Et leur sable doré
Mis l'animal en cage
Abattu nos forêts
Qu'est ce qu'il nous reste
Quand on a les mains vides
On se prépare au voyage
Et on se jette dans le vide
Ouvrez les frontières, ouvrez les frontières ( x 2 )
Laissez nous passer ?
