1.
tears falling on the carpet flooding all your home there’s a fire in your trumpet there’s a tiger on your throne and i see you moving like a small kite like a kite caught in a storm when you wander in the night trying to find something warm you burn from devil’s handshake a kiss still bitter on your tongue but it’s fine to make a mistake and it’s alright to be wrong life doesn’t stop beginning and it only ends one time there’s hope in every morning there’s wealth in every dime dead bodies in your pockets and something rotten in your bones you shouldn’t live with regrets it’s time to change the blankets time to plug again the phone
2.
in this circus there’s no place for people like us there are no windows in this bus and here it’s such a fuss and my mind is not clear am i feeling lonely here ? plenty of people to meet in the bars in the streets yes it could be sweet to eat the same meat no, when i’m alone i know what i do and when and why, no troubles to get through in these circles there’s no room for people like us there are no windows in this bus and here it’s such a fuss and my mind is not clear am i feeling lonely here ?
3.
all the pictures on the wall but there’s a wall in every picture there are so few things i recall like shapes, smells or texture and i want to know it all before fade away the colours both the nasty threatens and the friendly gestures it’s a monster that i cannot tame and a landscape that i cannot frame it starts again and feels the same
4.
i agreed to your request i got busy to let you rest i understood your will i got noisy to keep you still but does your maybe mean no and your no means yes well it’s hard to know because i can’t guess come on give me some fresh and new give some new stuff to chew the taste of my old gum is gone i need to find another one you can tell your friends “never try this” they won’t listen to you you can tell your friends “stop this crisis” they will do what they wanna do
5.
earth is my only homeland and it grew mountains in my hand i looked behind i had in mind something and it wasn’t there i had to know i had to find it but no one seemed to care i couldn’t find it in the mall i couldn’t find on a screen so i rushed like a cannonball from the sewer right into a stream through the bar and through the hall i heard a lot of ladies’s screams it’s with the oldest foam that you make a better cream earth is my only homeland and it so little and so grand

about

Lots of sweat and few resting breaks were involved on this musical session that was just as musically prepared as it was humanly improvised...

Charlotte heard the songs for the first time the night before recording and Renaud had never played bass before.

All musicians had never met prior to the session and yet here they were rock’n’rolling late at night, with their feet awkwardly sitting on scattered mic cables.

A certain sense of emergency, tension, humor and diet soda got the wheel turning and resulted in astonishing results of unrestrained power.
