Hmm
All that I've done, I said it beforehand, I make the jump, with no mattress for a shock-absorber
The glass is full but only halfway, the pupil's dilating, you know that I'm going to shoot
I'm all over the place like Chedid, got a troubled past like a sickly child
Paris by night is like Tom and Jerry, I lead the riot like Thomas Shelby
The pandemic has blocked the whole highway, the bullet takes a bounce off the sheriff's badge
Punishment will come upon the ungodly, all the sailors behave well when the water is calm
I came, I saw and I looked, we've been through a lot of suffering, the rest is well-deserved
There's no playing around on the field, you're going to dance to the noises of the Gatling
Starry-eyed like a convert, mysterious personality, introverted
No light in the retina, like a reptile, not so trustworthy
Be grateful, boy, that's common sense, zero zero nine nine in the epicenter
They're in the oldest profession in the world to get themselves the latest handbag
Concerts, showcases, bills in vacuum, I did the dirty job like a lackey
Like Mr. Churchill, I don't fuss around, dance drunk like they do at Soufi
Lost in a dream, lost in a memory, speaking of dreams, I've buried a lot of them
Speaking of dreams, some haven't come true, but the son of Adam only lives once
Monday morning, I make the headlines, their only wish is to see me get away
Adolf is surely burning now, we go in but never come out of the Roschilds'
With a furtive glance like a crook, it's a pix galore in the restaurant
I'm convinced that I deserve a discount, it's a delight to watch like when I get into my ride
I take my share, I pose in my suit at Saint-Honoré, I feel like a kid
Got my full face helmet on cos it smells like wounds over here, hail of bullets on my left flank
Our efforts will never amount to anything, the glasses are in the case
Everyone's taking flight, it smells like trouble, you want to make friends, everything's free, you know
Honest friends, they're priceless, I found myself in shit, I never understood
I thought it wasn't the worst, narrow as the heart of a hypocrit
Tick-tock, time's fading away, I look as stupid as when I take a selfie
Repeat offender, we're going to crack down, there are too many guys for just one girl
There isn't a single grain of salt in the tears of the widow, if the shepherd gets drunk the sheep go blind
In spite of the betrayals and the bitterness, I pull myself together like an actor
I've been around, all I've seen is evil, it doesn't concern me so I keep myself at bay
They say beauty, or ugliness lies in the eyes of the beholder
People behave differently when there's an eclipse, I sing but at the same time I'm building a team
Tell me everything, who did you come with, in the tavern, there's only Vikings
I turn up dressed like a Scot, they're going to pistol-whip at random
They're nothing but brutes and little Ramses, it's always Warano to save the day
Hmm
