Jean-Louis Aubert Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ma fièvre monte, j'ai les mains moites
Je veux t'aimer sans regarder
Mais c'est le monde qui nous regarde
Mon alter ego-mon alter ego
Rien à faire et rien à croire
La fièvre monte, la foi s'en va
Et je compte sur toi pour m'aider
Demande l'antenne
Retrouver le mystère
Demande l'antenne
Je veux trouver-je veux trouver
Une alternative-alternative!
La vie est ainsi fête-refuse!
La vie est bien trop bête-refus !
La politique implose-solution au quotidien
Solution à l'intérieur
Solution qui vient du cœur
Demande l'antenne
Retrouver le mystère
Demande désapprendre
Je veux trouver-je veux trouver
Une alternative (je cherche) locomotive
Hoo hoo active!
Allô?
Oui
Pareillement-que dis-tu (résiste) dans ce cas
Comment cela se fait-il musicalement (alternative)
J'imagine, j'imagine
(Platon)
Je je je je cherche
Avec nous les Sioux
Je cherche, je veux trouver
Une alternative
Je cherche, je veux trouver
Une alternative
Demande l'antenne
Retrouver le mystère
Demande désap, zap, zap, zap
The lyrics of the song Alternative by Jean-Louis Aubert depict the struggle of wanting to love someone freely without societal judgment. The singer's fever rises and they have sweaty hands as they want to love their alter ego without looking at the world that is watching them. The lyrics reflect the conflict between personal desires and societal expectations. The singer wants to have an alternative, a different way of living that challenges the conventional approach to life. They believe that life should not always be a party or be too stupid to handle, and political systems should be thought of in a more practical manner for daily life. The solution, according to the singer, comes from the heart, which is the way to find the mystery of an alternative. Throughout the song, the singer emphasizes the importance of finding an alternative, but leaves it open to interpretation without giving a direct solution.
