Follow The Line

A pied dans le désert
en Rolls dans le Bronx
sur un fil,
on the solid side of the line
dans les bras d'une belle fille qui me trouve,
terriblement séduisant, inspiré, tordant, génial
insoutenablement jeune, pour mon age,
bien qu'un peu nul au - golf.
Au pied d'un gratte-ciel
au bord d'un précipice,
au fond d'une piscine vide, encerclée par les hyènes.
Toujours entre deux gares,
deux départs,
des envies,
deux extrêmes,
deux amours,
deux haines.
Entre ce qui fait du bien ,du mal,
la terre et le ciel,
les hauts et les bas,
la vie quoi, le bordel.
Stop.
On the line.
Stick
together - together
Watch
for your camera
and
Follow the line
Follow the line
x2
Largué d'un hélicoptère,
en nœud pap et smocking
sans boussole.
Qu'est devenue lady Sunshine?
Dans les bras d'une ingénue qui me trouve
carrément phénoménal, échevelé, troublant fatal,
irrésistiblement beau pour mon age
quoiqu'un peu nul au - squash.
A bord d'un ovni, au bord d'l'a crise de nerf
avec un marteau piqueur
dans une soufflerie de verre.
Toujours entre un aller
un retour
deux proposition
deux amours
deux haines
Entre ce qui fait du bien, du mal
la terre et le ciel
les hauts et les bas
la vie quoi
le bordel
