L'équipe À Jojo

Lulu sold these paintings
Jacquot dived into a bistro
Dédé tasted the wines
I was strong in the sun
And Jéjé washed the windows
Pierrot did nothing

We emptied our pockets
To buy an old jalopy
Flowered on the hood
Dreaming of Provence
And died in Fontainebleau

We lit a cigarette
And everything lit up
And it was a party
On the fourteenth of July
There was never
One too many friend
In Jojo's team

There were fewer nights without a guitar
Than days without bread
We shared everything and had nothing
How crazy we were
How we didn't care
How good we were

We rented for nothing
The four walls of an old attic
About to collapse
But for a whole fortune
We wouldn't have moved

We lit a cigarette
And everything lit up
And it was a party
On the fourteenth of July
There was never
One too many friend
In Jojo's team

There were fewer nights
Without a guitar than days without bread
We shared everything and had nothing
How crazy we were
How we didn't care
How good we were

Lucien set sail
And Jacques bought a bistro
Where André drinks water
I'm no longer strong in the sun
Roger inspects taxes
Pierre looks for work

I changed my guitar
But I kept as a gift
That tune that warms me
From the depths of memory
The one from Jojo's team

We lit a cigarette
And everything lit up
And it was a party
On the fourteenth of July
There was never
One too many friend
In Jojo's team

There were fewer nights
Without a guitar than days without bread
We shared everything and had nothing
How crazy we were
How we didn't care
How good we were
