Je me souviens d'un rêveUne nuit de quatre-vingt-seize,J'avais pas bu et pourtant...J'étais tout contentJe sortais d'un collègeJ'étais devenu grand.On me donnait le choixEntre deux cortègesCommerçant ou bien mendiantOn me donnait le choixLe désert ou la neigeL'espérance ou le comptant.Politicien,
Politicien,Tu souris de toutComme sur une piste de danseLes faux seins restent debout...La couleur du pain,La couleur du sang,La couleur des bijouxC'est dans ton programme et pourtantOn voit jamais,
jamais rien du tout...Temps,
joue avec nous...Vents,
soufflez pour nous...Je me souviens d'un rêveUne nuit de quatre-vingt-seize,J'avais pas bu et pourtant...J'étais tout contentJe sortais d'un collègeJ'étais devenu grand.On me donnait le choixEntre deux cortègesCommerçant ou bien mendiantOn me donnait le choixLe désert ou la neigeL'espérance ou le comptant.
