Un Jour Mon Tour
Patrick Fiori Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Défilent les gens
Docile, j'attends, j'attends
Des trains, des gares
Trop loin, trop tard
Fainéants, fêtards, poissards
Vauriens, standards
Fins, bons à rien
Je sais bien
Un jour je sais pas quand
Mais un jour
Un jour ce sera mon tour
Mon instant de chance un jour
C'est pas du vent, des discours
J'aurais tout même un amour
Une autre existence
Pas doué, pas fort
Ramier, rêveur
Fumer, brûler
Ailleurs, ailleurs
Ma main larguée
Bagarre touchée
Bonsoir jugé
Jugé
Les bons à rien
Ont bien quelque chose
Un don enfin
Je suppose
Un jour tu me crois plus
Mais un jour
Tu verras ce sera mon tour
Mon heure et ma chance un jour
C'est pas du vent, des discours
J'aurais même un grand amour
Même plus qu'immense un jour
J'inventerais des histoires
Pour attirer les regards
Et plein d'idolâtres en moi
Je veux ma part de lumière
Et juste un peu moins l'hiver
J'ai plus rien à perdre, oh naître
Oh oui renaître un beau jour
Vous rirez moins tous autour
Un jour ce sera mon tour
Tu me crois plus mais un jour
Tu verras ce sera mon tour
Je veux ma part de lumière
Un jour (oh)
Un jour mon tour (Mon tour)
The lyrics to "Un Jour Mon Tour" by Patrick Fiori depict a sense of frustration and disillusionment towards city life, as the singer sees himself as an outsider looking in on the "docile" people passing by. He feels disconnected from them and from himself, describing himself as "not gifted" and a "dreamer." Despite feeling like a "good-for-nothing," the singer holds onto hope that someday it will be his turn to experience his own moment of luck and success.
The song emphasizes the theme of transformation, as the singer imagines himself with a new existence and a grand love. He desires to be seen and admired by others, claiming that he has nothing left to lose and hopes to be reborn. The repeating phrase "un jour mon tour" (one day my turn) reflects a determination to hold onto the idea that someday his fortunes will change, lending the song an underlying sense of optimism even in its more downtrodden moments. Overall, the song portrays a yearning for something more in life, despite feelings of powerlessness and frustration.
