Lorsque je suis pressé,
il m'arrive de penser,
à tout ce temps qu'on perd
ces minutes, ces jours, disparus pour toujours
Est-ce qu'on les récupère?
L'attente aux ASSEDIC,
dans les lavomatiques,
devant un magazine,
une heure avec les flics dans l'ambiance merdique d'un contrôle de routine.
Et au Supermarché ces minutes gâchés doublé par une vieille.
Tout bien considéré moi j'aurais préféré les passer au Soleil.
Le Temps qu'on a perdu,
nous sera-t-il rendu en des heures heureuses?
Pourrais-je le négocier au jugement dernier de la grande faucheuse?
Existe-t-il un dieu?
Si oui, dites lui que,
Je cumule mes heures mortes
Si Dieu trouve que j'abuse et qu'il me les refuse
Que le Diable l'emporte.
