Salut ô peuple opprimé,
cessez de vous tracasser
Regardez nous vous comprendrez
qu'il y a mieux à faire
Nous sommes de braves gens,
moitié morts, moitié vivants
On entretient tout bonnement
les flammes de notre enfer
Nous sommes de braves gens,
on bosse pour peu d'argent
On vit tout simplement
les ordres des dirigeants
RMI, emploi à mi-temps
nourrissent pas nos enfants
Mais on n'a pas le temps de gueuler,
on cherche un appartement
Salut ô mes frères, cessez de vous en faire
J'suis un bon vieux prolétaires,
j'bosse chez Air Inter
J'ai p't'être pas un gros salaire,
mais j'ai acheté une Chrisler
Vous voyez bien qu'on peut vivre heureuxsur la terre
Salut ô mes pères
Ceux qu'on exploitaient naguère
Vous avez une petite retraite
Alors y a pas de quoi s'en faire
La vie n'a pas toujours été une fête
vous avez vécu comme vos pères
Menés aux doigts et à la baguette par ceux
qu'on appelle les gens honnêtes
Nous sommes de braves gens,
on en veut à la jeunesse
De vouloir voter blanc,
de n'pas être tenue en laisse
Après tout pourquoi nos enfants
connaîtraient l'allégresse
Alors que nous et nos parents
nous n'avons connu que le stress
Nous sommes de braves gens,
on ne peut rien nous reprocher
On agit assis en gueulant devant la télé
On signe un chèque de temps en temps
Pour l'humanité
Et on finance l'armement quand
on achète à bouffer
Salut à toutes les mères
qui sont libres maintenant
De dire à leur compère
qu'il est con, qu'il est chiant
Mais qui préfèrent se taire
pour l'amour de leur enfant
Qui plus bas que terre
Fait sa crise d'adolescent
Nous sommes de braves gens,
on est libre de décider
De la vie de nos enfants,
des gens qui peuvent nous aimer
La vie pour nous c'est passionnant,
elle consiste à perpétuer
La tradition qui depuis l'aube des temps
Fait de nous des braves gens
