Canvi de Paradigma

Manel Manel

Paradigm Shift

With the paradigm shift, I had to apologize
I went out on the street and ran home
To empty all the drawers, rummage through all the papers
Make a mountain out of them and watch them burn
It was effective, the fire
Toning
It was effective, the fire
With full flames
Of the nonsense that you and I had come to say
Of the nonsense that you and I had come

To say
And they spread to the horizon
To say
And educated the interlocutor
To say
Always more enlightened than the others
To say
And paid very well at the end of the month

With the paradigm shift, I preferred the backseat
I was never sure of what I thought anymore
I liked to stay in the courtyard with the radio murmuring
About the noise of toppled statues
About that noise
Above that beautiful song
About that noise
Of statues full
Of the nonsense that you and I had come to say
Of the nonsense that you and I had come

To say
And they spread to the horizon
To say
And educated the interlocutor
To say
Always more enlightened than the others
To say
And paid very well at the end of the month

With the paradigm shift, they had to bury me
In this desert, with no name on the plaque
I thank you for the white flowers and the speech at the funeral
I know it had been a long time since you respected me
And it looks nice, the flowers
With black drapes hanging
And behind some friends
Who remembered
The nonsense that you and I had come to say
The nonsense that you and I had come to say
