Bouche Fermée
David Lafore Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tu t'es tue
M'as donné
Un baiser
Bouche clouée
Gardes-tu
Enfermés
Bouche à clef
C'est rompu
Le charme est
Fissuré
Bouche scellée
Caches-tu
Des crochets
Poisonnés?
Bouche fermée
Bouche clouée
Bouche à clef
Bouche scellée
Bouche
Claquemurée
Bouche fermée
Tu t'es tue
M'as donné
Un baiser
Bouche murée
Disparues
Envolées
Dents de lait
Bouche liée
Disparu
Envolé
Sourire frais
Bouche rivée
Laisses-tu
Fermenter
Des pamphlets?
Bouche fermée
Bouche murée
Bouche liée
Bouche rivée
Bouche
Claquemurée
Bouche fermée
Tu t'es tue
M'as donné
Un baiser
Bouche barrée
En veux-tu
Des baisers
Rivetés?
Bouche clapet
C'est foutu
Peux garder
Tes baisers
Bouche bouchée
Jamais plus
Je n'irai
M'aboucher à ta
Bouche fermée
Bouche barrée
Bouche clapet
Bouche bouchée
Bouche
Claquemurée
The lyrics to David Lafore's song "Bouche Fermée" depict a person whose mouth is closed, refusing to speak and keeping in secrets. The repetition of phrases like "bouche fermée" (closed mouth) and "tu t'es tue" (you remained silent) reinforces the theme of silence and secrecy.
The first verse suggests that the person with the closed mouth has given the singer a kiss, but it has not allowed them to communicate or share their true feelings. The second verse asks if this closed mouth hides poisonous secrets, implying that the silence is causing harm.
In the following verses, the lyrics explore how the closed mouth symbolizes a loss of innocence and a disappearance of genuine emotion. The mention of "dents de lait" (baby teeth) suggests youthfulness and the fading of childlike innocence. The person's smile has also disappeared, leaving behind a void.
The later verses introduce the idea that the closed mouth allows negative thoughts and criticisms to ferment, potentially leading to the creation of harmful "pamphlets." The final verses convey the singer's decision to no longer be affected by this closed mouth, symbolized by the repetition of phrases like "bouche bouchée" (clogged mouth) and "jamais plus" (never again). It is a resolution to move on and no longer be silenced or controlled by this person.
Overall, "Bouche Fermée" explores themes of silence, withholding, and the negative impact that they can have on relationships and personal growth. It also highlights the singer's decision to break free from the influence of the closed mouth and reclaim their voice.

Je ne me lasse jamais d'écouter cette poésie spleenétique et, on peut le dire Laforienne.. Oh combien de fois ma compagne m'a-t-elle demandé de lui fredonner "au bord de la mer".. La musique de 5têtes, son lyrisme musical me manque, aussi, je sais combien il est dur de nourrir 5têtes...
