Molodoï Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Clandestin à l'hôpital
Tu as grandi illégal
Tu es devenu brutal
Passé devant tribunal
Terrorisme musical
Tu as chanté "Germinal"
La misère pour idéal
Molodoï...
Passé devant tribunal
Tu es devenu chacal
Tu es mort en animal
D'une lobotomie frontale
Exécution matinale
Dans clinique carcérale
Ils t'ont rendu végétal,
Prisonnier de ton mental
France Paris capitale
Jeunesse Paris-Montréal
Jeunesse au sida-mental
Cherche partout idéal
Société occidentale
Au fascisme libéral
Suicidé à Montréal,
C'est écrit dans le journal
Tu es né à Montréal
Clandestin à l'hôpital
Tu es mort en animal
Dans clinique carcérale
Jeunesse au sida-mental
Cherche partout idéal
Cherche voie originale
Et passer pour anormal
Molodoï, Molodoï, Molodoï...
