Les chiens? Plumes
Les poissons lunes
Les cerfs-volants

Les armes? Bulles
Les funambules
Les oc? Ans

Paradis artificiel

Les soleils rouges
Les plantes qui bougent
Les nains g? Ants

La plan? Te Terre
Le ciel l'enfer
Les? L? Ments

Paradis artificiel

Quand je vois ces choses d? Mentielles
Quand le temps est une portion d'? Ternel
Quand je vole tr? S haut dans le ciel
J'approche un peu de mon paradis artificiel

Les psychotropes
Le monde interlope
Les pr? Sidents

La fum? E mauve
Les nymphes chauves
Les hommes volants

Paradis artificiel

Les arbres qui courent
La paix l'amour
Les chiens savants

Les serpents de mer
Nager dans l'air
Les sables mouvants

Paradis artificiel

(Merci? Pierre pour cettes paroles)
