There's ups, downs, downs and ups
_____
Weird debates and demagoguery
_____
Pressure hits, stabs in the back
_____
Bluff moves and rodeos
There's the France from below
And the France from above
_____
The so-called bourgeois, the so-called proles
_____
There's daddy's boys
_____
There's average France from Brest to Cayenne
_____
There's the undocumented, the broke
_____
Leeches, the merciless
_____
There's single women and prisoners
_____
There's nurses and the guys on the site
_____
There's the crazies, the clowns, the nutcases
_____
Visually impaired, clear-sighted, and nuns of the clergy
_____
Yes here I am it's me here
_____
I can sing, talk about all that
_____
While all that happens down here
_____
There's ups, downs, downs and ups
_____
Weird debates and demagoguery

Pressure hits, stabs in the back

_____
We haven't seen each other in a long time, you and me
_____
Time flies and it's worn you out
_____
Proud like a liner, dignified like a sailboat
_____
There's luck, the loss and the win
_____
That bring hope back when life gets wrecked
_____
They say we only live once
_____
I ignore so much but not that
_____
Still, some are really badly paid
_____
Is a big TV star
_____
There's tons of guys who shouldn't be in prison
_____
Too many tie-wearing crooks who take us for idiots
_____
I got lost in the crowd and hid in sound
_____
My schnouf, my dope, my healthiest addiction
_____
Yes here I am it's me here
_____
I can sing and talk about all that
_____
While all that happens down here
