White tous vos néons rouillésWhite la loi,
la vie,
les condésWhite les nuits pour oublierPhares de la police dans mes yeux métis mouillésBlack mes cheveux et ma peauBlack c'est écrit là sur mon dosBlack comme de la musique soulBlack is black and really beautifulAnd tell meWhy,
why,
why,
why,
I don't knowWhy,
why,
why,
why,
I'm born in the ghettoWhy,
why,
why,
why,
I don't knowDeux noires pour une blanche,
c'est inscrit dans le tempoWhite la couleur de l'accrocWhite la lame,
noire le couteauWhite la voix qui dit encoreSur Pigalle la blanche fait rouler ses gouttes d'orBlack la mémoire des bistrotsBlack les blousons des travelosBlack la mort dans son linceulComme un coup de flingue,
une baffe dans la gueuleAnd tell meWhy,
why,
why,
why,
I don't knowWhy,
why,
why,
why,
I'm born in the ghettoWhy,
why,
why,
why,
I don't knowDeux noires pour une blanche,
c'est inscrit dans le tempoWhite la peur qui vous rassureWhite le boulevard sous la bavureWhite la morale et le nombrePigalle devient blanche quand les bronzés sont à l'ombreBack vers la lumière doréeBack vers l'épaisseur de forêtsBack très loin de BabyloneJe veux repartir vers les tambours qui bastonnent ...
