Excuse me ?
Excuse me ?
What the hell is this place ?
I don’t think I’ve ever been here before
Waoh, I feel so tired
And there is this guy asking me my name
You know I’m not gonna tell you my real name, boy
Yeah I’ll take another drink
The bar tender looks terrible
Thank you
And there is this old lady sitting next to me
Boy, she smells really bad
She says that normally the bar tender works with his boyfriend
And they are so funny and beautiful when they are together
but she says he is very sick and is probably gonna die.
And everybody keeps smile and smile and smile
Everybody keeps smiling
And I keep dancing
Did I take something tonight ?
The guy… He is still here and is looking at me
I’m so scared, I’m so scared
Excuse me boy, this sofa is incredible don’t you think ?
I mean it’s really soft don’t you think ?
It’s really soft don’t you think ?
And my skin is really soft as well
I can feel it all over my skin
People seems to have fun
The music is so bad
Can you put something else ?
Excuse me ?
Can you put something else ?
Excuse me ?
Excuse me ?
Aaaaaaaah
Listen, I’m sick of you, I’m sick of me, I’m sick of everything

You can’t escape, you can’t just let me here and runaway
It’s too late now, you should hear the circus in my head
I do open my eyes, what you ‘ve done, what you succeeded
I’m an old man , I’m a freak
Why don’t you stay away ?
I’m an old man, I’m a freak
Why don’t you stay away ?
Oh you can cry. Oh you know why.
Oh You can cry. Oh you know why.
I’m sure you ‘ll find your way, you always have been a dope
I can’t trust, I can’t trust you, my girl you made me such a fool
Oh give me a god damn break, don’t you tuch my lips again
I’m an old man , I’m a freak
Why don’t you stay away ?
I’m an old man, I’m a freak
Why don’t you stay away ?
Oh you can cry. Oh you know why.
Oh You can cry. Oh you know why.

A blind blue moon

A little girl with a blind blue cat
Playing straight piano in the courtyard
Falling snow
Meowing cat
A little girl feeling blue
Singing at the moon
Crying my name
Playing minor
Singing loud
The blind blue cat is sleeping down
Snores minor. Dreaming blue
Snow is falling. Falling blue
Moon is shining. Shining blue
Then she lies down. Falling snow
She screams my name. Falling snow
I’m listening baby. I can hear you
You know I love when you’re singing blue
The piano feels warm
And the cat is shining
And there’s blood in the snow
A small red sparkle in the night
A little girl feeling blue
It comes from her shirt
And the snow is covering all
And the cat is meowing all
And the white turns blue
I’m listening baby. I can hear you
You know I love when you’re singing blue
And the snow is falling
And the piano turns white
And everything turns blue

Wanda - Mrs Jackson

Here I go, going down, down, down,
My mind is a blank,
My head is spinning around and around,
As I go deep into the funnel of love.
It's such a crazy, crazy feeling,
I get weak in the knees,
My poor old head is a reelin',
As I go deep into the funnel of love.
I tried and I tried, to run and hide,
I even tried to run away,
I just can't run from the funnel of love,
It's gonna get you someday.
--------------
I went into a church, once
On a sweaty morning
I thought I would rest inside
I saw her in a bench
She was so pretty I was petrified
o You lie…
I walk to her and I made a joke…
o Oh, no, he was so shy, he just stayed at the back
We looked at each other…
o and we laugh…
He was so…
Dirty, unshaven, proud,
I never saw a priest like him
Oh Mrs Jackson
You make me feel so guilty
o Oh little boy
You make feel so young

This is a story of a young black girl
She was feeling sad and lonely
And everything was just so boring
And she knew her dad’s LP were just there
And she knew that nobody would come
So she played it really loud
And shook her head and sang like this
NaNaNaNaNaNaNa
She just blew her mind away
NaNaNaNaNaNaNa
She was like this singing singing singing
NaNaNaNaNaNaNa
And everything was just so fine
NaNaNaNaNaNaNa
and everything was just all right
Now she works at a coffee shop
She’s all dressed in black
She is still a bit drunk from yesterday
It’s gonna be a long long day, boy
You don’t have to be such an asshole
You don’t have to say it to me now
and shake your head and sing like this
NaNaNaNaNaNaNa
And shake and shake your head like this
NaNaNaNaNaNaNa
And everything was turning white
NaNaNaNaNaNaNa
She was dancing like a queen
NaNaNaNaNaNaNa
she just shouted and screamed out hurray
NaNaNaNaNaNaNa
And everything was just so fine
NaNaNaNaNaNaNa
and everything was just all right
It was the story of a young black girl
Whose life was changed by the Motown
And everything was just so pure
And nothing was going wrong
She was dancing like an angel
And she was screaming : « Close your eyes
Shake your head and sing like this »

Rely on me

Just me
With all my ghosts
It’s such a big town
When no one’s there
Just dust and shadow
And I keep moving on
Rely on me / Rely on me
Just me
Walking on the road
With nothing left behind
You used to be mine
I should have been better
And I’m still on my own
Rely on me / Rely on me
Don’t be scared
Rely on me
She used to say that
If you think you’re alone
If you don’t feel safe
If you’re sad
If you feel scared
Listen carefully
Don’t panic
Breath deeply
Focus on my voice
Picture yourself in another place
Make some coffee
Eat some sugar
Take your time
Be a good boy
Focus on my voice
Focus on my voice
Sing a song
Write some thoughts
Take a picture of something pretty
Be yourself
Drink some wine
Take a picture of something strange
Find a river
Find a big rock
Throw the rock as far as you can
Blink your eyes
Kiss the moon
Enjoy the silence
Feel the air
Break your phone
Set something on fire
Do something stupid
Do something wrong
Disobey
Make your own rules
Be yourself
Don’t do what I say
Stop listening to me
Don’t do what I say
Stop listening to me
Blink your eyes
Kiss the moon
Take a picture of something strange
Write some thoughts
Find a river

On an arrow

Oh Lord… Oh Lord… Oh Lord… Oh Lord…
Are you waiting for a ride?
Are you waiting for the sunset ?
Are you looking for the bride ?
Are you running from the widow ?
You are bleeding on an arrow… You are leaving in the wide…
Don’t you wanna have some fun ?
Don’t you wanna close your eyes ?
Don’t you wanna reste in peace ?
Don’t you wanna hang on clouds ?
You are bleeding on an arrow… You are leaving in the wide…
Oh Lord… Oh Lord… Oh Lord… Oh Lord…
You are bleeding on an arrow… You are leaving in the wide…

Sombre Lyon, France
Sombre s’amuse à juxtaposer des couleurs musicales comme des petites touches de peinture. Au chant, un duo homme-femme à la Lee Hazlewood/Nancy Sinatra, soutenu par une section rythmique capable de passer d’un raz de marée de rock bruitiste et sauvage à une ballade douce et épurée. Sombre, c’est un animal fragile surpris par une lumière crue, à l’image de leur pochette d’album. R.Lujah / GONZAI ... more
