about

1er album de John&Betty - 2010

lyrics

AS LONG AS YOU ARE STILL ALIVE

But if the water goes over the bridges and the fence
Do you think an angel will come and take your defense
Well I hope you will feel not too grim
When the time comes to go for a swim

And as long as you behave as God’s favourite child
Little by little you’re turning back to the wild
Counting on technology
For not having to change your way to be

Don’t you think it’s time to make a stand
As long as you are still alive

And if a flickering bird comes and tries to make a deal
About the branches and the trees he needs upon the hill
Will you take your gun and shoot him down
Watching his body crashing to the ground

And when the polar bears claim justice for their rights
About the disappearing of the ice that you didn’t fight
Will you still be able to stay blind
Just to keep your perfect peace of mind

Don’t you think it’s time to make a stand
As long as you are still alive

And as long as you dream to be a millionaire
With a lot of baby dolls around you everywhere
Your religion of more and more
Will make you miss what you’re looking for

Don’t you think it’s time to make a stand
As long as you are still alive

Une certaine idée du bonheur... ... more
