On January 26, 1986, French humorist Coluche, who had set up Les Restos du Cœur a few months earlier, invited a number of artists and public figures to appear on television as a promotional move. The band, whose line-up was never the same, was dubbed "Les Enfoirés" in reference to one of Coluche's catchwords. After Coluche died in a motorbike accident (June 19, 1986) his widow, Véronique Colucci, called on those who had participated to continue his actions, and the band was revived for a further television show. The concept has since evolved into an annual concert, bringing together up to forty artists and celebrities from various backgrounds. The funds raised by the concerts and derived records under the name "Enfoirés" are donated to Les Restos du Cœur.
One of the key features of Les Enfoirés is "La Chanson des Enfoirés", a song which became a sort of hymn to the charity, written by Jean-Jacques Goldman, a long-time supporter of the organisation.

Les Enfoirés Lyrics
Tell me something, girl
Are you happy in this modern world?
Or do you need more?
Is there something else you're searching for?
I'm falling
In all the good times
I find myself longing for change
And in the bad times, I fear myself
Tell me something, boy
Aren't you tired tryin' to fill that void?
Or do you need more?
Ain't it hard keeping it so hardcore?
I'm falling
In all the good times
I find myself longing for change
And in the bad times, I find myself
I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in
I'll never meet the ground
Crash through the surface, where they can't hurt us
We're far from the shallow now
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
In the sha-sha-la-la-la-low
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
We're far from the shallow now
Hah, hah, hah, hah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hah, hah, hah, hah, hah
I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in
I'll never meet the ground
Crash through the surface, where they can't hurt us
We're far from the shallow now
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
In the sha-sha-la-la-la-low
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
We're far from the shallow now
I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in
I'll never meet the ground
Crash through the surface, where they can't hurt us
We're far from the shallow now
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
In the sha-sha-la-la-la-low
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
We're far from the shallow now
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
In the sha-sha-la-la-la-low
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
We're far from the shallow now
Are you happy in this modern world?
Or do you need more?
Is there something else you're searching for?
I'm falling
In all the good times
I find myself longing for change
And in the bad times, I fear myself
Tell me something, boy
Or do you need more?
Ain't it hard keeping it so hardcore?
I'm falling
In all the good times
I find myself longing for change
And in the bad times, I find myself
I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in
I'll never meet the ground
Crash through the surface, where they can't hurt us
We're far from the shallow now
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
In the sha-sha-la-la-la-low
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
We're far from the shallow now
Hah, hah, hah, hah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hah, hah, hah, hah, hah
I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in
I'll never meet the ground
Crash through the surface, where they can't hurt us
We're far from the shallow now
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
In the sha-sha-la-la-la-low
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
We're far from the shallow now
I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in
I'll never meet the ground
Crash through the surface, where they can't hurt us
We're far from the shallow now
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
In the sha-sha-la-la-la-low
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
We're far from the shallow now
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
In the sha-sha-la-la-la-low
In the sha-ha, sha-la-low
We're far from the shallow now
