Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Celui qui se lave avec la musique
J'ai pas trop le répondant automatique
J'ai pas la carte pour entrer dans la clique
Je suis le Lavoine matic
Je connais comme tout le monde un peu la politique
Les écritures, les critères, les critiques,
Le cri de l'Africain, de la Sud Amérique
Je suis pas le Marc déposé
Ni le Marc Antoine ou le Marco Polo
Ni le Chagall venu de là-haut
Je suis le Lavoine matic
L.A.V.O.I.N.E M.A.T.I.C
Je suis le Lavoine matic
L.A.V.O.I.N.E M.A.T.I.C
J'aime à te hisser
Je suis le Lavoine matic
J'ai le tic-tac de la tactique
Tu sais, j'ai pas de puces, pas de poux, pas de tiques
J'ai pas l'étiquette mais j'ai l'éthique
Je suis le Lavoine matic
Celui qui se lave avec la musique
Je suis le Lavoine matic
L.A.V.O.I.N.E M.A.T.I.C
Celui qui se lave avec la musique
L.A.V.O.I.N.E M.A.T.I.C
Je suis pas le Marc déposé
Ni le Marc Antoine ou le Marco Polo
Ni le Chagall venu de là-haut
L.A.V.O.I.N.E M.A.T.I.C
J'aime à te hisser
Je suis le Lavoine matic
Celui qui se lave avec la musique
J'aime pas trop
Les répondeurs automatiques
Sauf quand j'entends le mot
Lavoine matic
Je suis le Lavoine matic
Je connais comme tout le monde un peu la politique
Les saintes écritures, les critères, les critiques,
C'est toi que j'ai dans la peau éthique
L.A.V.O.I.N.E M.A.T.I.C
J'aime à te hisser
Je suis le Lavoine matic
L.A.V.O.I.N.E M.A.T.I.C
