La musique
A (Dominique) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Et la musique charriait l'onde
Et le principe d'immunité
Tombait aux pieds de la musique
Et les digues de s'incliner
Et moi, j'écoutais la musique
Par les grandes orgues, amadoué
Je découvrais l'Ancienne Egypte
Mes cheveux avaient repoussé

Dès lors, tout ne fût plus qu'énigmes
Que salles aux murs capitonnés
Que longs couloirs, sous pyramides
Que belotes entre dieux froissés
Et dire qu'on disait la musique
Pour sybarites, pour glandeurs nés
Moi, je n'ai vu de sa guérite
Que pitons et monts élancés

Et la musique charriait l'onde
Et le principe d'immunité
Tombait aux pieds de la musique
Et les digues de s'incliner
Et dire qu'on disait la musique
Pour sybarites, pour glandeurs nés
Moi, je n'ai vu de sa guérite




Que pitons et monts élancés
Que ravines et paniers percés
