Bienvenue Chez Moi

Have I already told you about Bordeaux? (no)
On the docks, we like to call the pretty girls shaped like cannelés
I saw the expanse of vineyards through the porthole
Mirror, water mirror, tell me who is the most beautiful
I passed through Normandy, I saw the cities and the beaches (oh yeah?)
To not lie to you, I mostly saw cows (haha)
I saw lions and lionesses with roaring hearts
A haven of peace, Caen, I passed through Rouen
A stop in Lille, it's true it's not the most beautiful of cities
But on the grand square, I felt free
Felt small, felt 'ch'ti' in the setting
The people were warmer than the weather outside (it's true)
I passed through Lyon and didn't understand right away
When I said 'hello' they replied '69 the trick'
I hung out at Place Bellecour with all my 'zonards'
They told me that in Saint-Étienne there are only assholes
I have to tell you about Marseille, its port, its slightly dirty alleys
And I even took on the accent while singing in the stadium
In the midst of these big mouths, I didn't feel so big
I heard cicadas but not the sound of Kalashnikovs
I went to Saint-Étienne to get some fresh air (yeah)
I was forced to put on a damn green jersey (damn)
I hung out on Martyrs Street with all my 'zonards' (yeah)
They told me that in Lyon (what?) there are only assholes (no!)

Welcome to my home
Whether you come from a big city or a small village
You have to see this, ah, ah (ah)
We have the most beautiful girls, the most beautiful landscapes
Come take a tour of my home
Come take a tour of my home
Come take a tour of my home

In Brest and Rennes, I felt a bit stupid
When people told me they weren't French but Bretons
Sailors with big hearts, a little too drunk (yeah)
Sailing on a sea of cider
A day in Paris and Notre Dame made a scene (oh yeah?)
She told me I was too slow and that our accents bothered her
She's urgent and oppressive, she's stressful and cruel
She's hurtful, she's chilling but damn she's beautiful
I went to an island, the volcano opened its arms to me
And the ocean whispered to me 'La Réunion is here'
There's no religion or color in the picture
An argument is as rare as seeing a dodo
You don't know Montpellier? The beach is close by
We spend the whole afternoon at Place de la Comédie
We take our time, don't think we're lazy (no)
From the arenas of Nîmes to the palm trees of Perpignan
I went to Strasbourg, I came back with kouglof in hand
It's crazy, I still taste sauerkraut in my mouth
The charms of the borders of the hexagon
And I write this sentence with the pen of a stork

I went to Belgium, logical, I filled up on fries
I thought I saw beer coming out of the Manneken Pis
There's life when the square comes alive
I've been there so much, I feel like I'm seeing family (yeah) (once)
In Nantes, I started a giant safari
I crossed canaries, flew around an elephant
I saw kickers, skippers, lovers
The only place where I met dealers, little Arabs
I settled down calmly in Switzerland
Near the swans on the shores of Lake Geneva
I turned off my workshop so I wouldn't be called
There I indulged in Emmental and a mountain of chocolate
First time in Corsica, the shock
The land, the sea, at first I struggled with the character
On the terrace, the old jokes made me laugh
I didn't want to leave, didn't want to get back on the ferry
I was born in Toulouse, so I'm not really honest
She saw my first steps and carried me every second
And you ask anyone who knows her
They'll tell you 'it's the most beautiful city in the world!'

You know in Nantes there's an elephant but like it's automated
And it moves and everything, like it moves around the city
What are you saying, brother? But I swear it's true, it's, a thing
It's an elephant (sure?) but like a robot elephant
Oh yeah? Damn, but you-
It's an elephant, but a, a robot elephant
