Latch, neck, knife, jewel
Bottle, under, Lourdes trinket
High tide, arithmetic
Christmas, Santa Claus, tobacco, shell
A stinking passerby, the night

This time behind the stadium where you did your Indian dance for him
So it would rain on him

Notre-Dame on fire glowing in the night, the cow
The fist of a drunk guy crushed on a mouth
Cardboard, lemon, turd, punch
Cotton, turkey, bolt, grass
Plane, majesty, speed of sound

This time behind the stadium where you did your Indian dance for him
So it would rain on him

Everything slowly fades away
Everything slowly
Everything ends like a bone
White like a bone
Time is so sweet

Hail, roof, noise, Barbara
The damn habit he has of dragging his past of art
Gaddafi camping in the gardens of the Elysée, me
Tasting my blackcurrant sorbet in front of the TV
Naked, smoke, curtains, paradise

This time behind the stadium where you did your Indian dance for him
It was picking hands

The pointed sex of the neighbors' dog that made us machine
The magical arrival of kiwis
The unexpected marriage of Romola de Pulszky
With Nijinski

The local newspaper, the family newspaper
The soft soap, all your hilarious comments about the earth turning
Between work and everything

Everything slowly fades away
Everything slowly
Everything ends like a bone
White like a bone

Everything slowly fades away
Everything slowly
Give me your hand
Come on, let's go down and smell this jasmine
Down the steps
Time is so sweet

Everything slowly fades away
Everything slowly
Everything ends like a bone
White like a bone
