{Refrain:}
Gente fina, outra coisa
Distingué, c'est une autre chose
Gente coisa, outra fina
Tu le vis ou tu l'imagines
Gente fina, outra coisa
Distingué, c'est une autre chose
Gente coisa, outra fina
Tu le vis ou tu l'imagines
Ma chanson fait le tour de la favela ou d'une tour
Se méfie du serpent, monétaire évidemment
Tu rêvais d'abolir les frontières
La musique devenait planétaire
Mais la violence a ses clients
Pris dans la machine où sont tes rêves, tes évasions
Oh, n'oublie jamais d'ensoleiller les imaginations
{au Refrain}
Dans les rues de la ville, chantent des foules indociles
Mais la main du pouvoir se serre dans le velours noir
Tu ferais mieux de t'occuper de tes affaires,
Dérisoire, ton pamphlet planétaire
Mais la violence a ses clients
Pris dans la machine où sont tes rêves, tes évasions
Oh, n'oublie jamais d'ensoleiller les imaginations
{au Refrain}
