Paris-Strasbourg

Paris-Strasbourg
Strasbourg-Paris, they all took off
The grays, the big ones, the mean, the ugly, the beautiful
Gotta wear a suit, no sparkles, no feathers
And in front, behind, the big ol' number
Ah, ah, ah, it works for you
The one who falls down, it doesn't work for him
That's life, I’m going backward, my life is Paris-Strasbourg
Strasbourg-Paris, the one who's bored
Who finds his role, not funny, watch out for control
You’re feeling sluggish, you’re zigzagging, you’re wasted
Disruptive subject, that’s the penalty
Ooh, ooh, ooh, it’s working okay
Some are crying, pain on the side of the road
That’s life, so I’m walking backward, my life is Paris-Strasbourg
Strasbourg-Paris, no Lili, Sophie
Masculine road, ladies in the kitchen
Some get ideas but the first one
Who gets there, what will he win?
Oh, oh, oh, it’s working really well
You’re all happy first but you’ve worn out your body
That’s life, so I’m walking backward, my life is Paris-Strasbourg
Strasbourg-Paris, I say yes
To whoever drinks their beer, who’s parked their ass
Long distances, I say long live France
To the one who runs, who takes detours for love
Oh, oh, oh, it works too
If you’re chillin’ out, then you’re less of a fool
That’s life, hop there I’m walking backward, my life is Paris-Strasbourg
Paris-Strasbourg, out of competition
Nose in the air, I’m walking alone backward
Ladies and gentlemen, out of the program
A life that dances, a sentimental rhythm
Ooh, oh, oh, that’s Rocking-chair
I’m cruising national 4, sleeping doesn’t cost too much
That’s life, Strasbourg-Paris is too short
My life is Paris-Strasbourg
I’m going backward, my life is Paris-Nevers
I’m chillin’ in the other direction, my life is Paris-Valence
