Need to escape Earth's gravity
Need to escape Earth's gravity

The brain is heavy
The brain is heavy
The brain is heavy

Yeah yeah
At the time when Cupid sold his arrows to Endemol
On the internet, pedophiles go fishing with "lol"
The world is stoned mate, you have to work more to earn more
Then we end up happy like the employees of France Telecom
Yes, we joke about ecology, we need to react
Our technological comfort has murdered Haiti
The colonies in 2010
And I'm not even talking about Palestine
How many democratic countries employ African presidents, friend
The suicide rate doesn't worry anyone at the Elysée
Prefers to talk about the burqa than violence in high schools
When I watch the TV channels and their stupid shows
I think that Marc Dorcel will soon be our Minister of Education
At home, parents crack, invest in the Lotto
Because what cost five francs yesterday costs five euros today
To be happy, it takes antidepressants
Or others like me take the elevator
To go

On the Moon, on the Moon
The world's problems seem small when I see them from the Moon
On the Moon, all my dreams float, I sweep the star dust with my feather
On the Moon I would walk, a small step for Man, a big step for my freedom
On the Moon (yeah) on the Moon (yeah) on my Moon (yeah)

You know I've had Earth sickness since I was a kid, an aerial need
Because in the hearts of Men, the temperature has brought out the fir trees
Give me the keys to my cell, so I can see what my wings are for
My life may take the pill, but it only gives birth to problems
Of course I love my block life, but in the manner of Kurt Cobain
With a gun in the throat and bitterness in my poems
Yes dude, I carry all the scars of a youth taken by the throat
Because here when you're hungry, you end up eating your halo
In France, you are judged by your color or your address
So you put on the hood to avoid racial profiling
Yes, it naps at the back of the class because once again
Dad and mom spent the night fighting and drinking
Between religious wars and extreme consumption
In this society that plays to a closed box office in prisons
To not lose my mind, I prefer to live in my fiction
Head in the clouds to go see stars by the millions

On the Moon (yeah) on the Moon (yeah)
The world's problems seem small when I see them from the Moon
On the Moon, all my dreams float, I sweep the star dust with my feather
On the Moon I would walk, a small step for Man, a big step for my freedom
On the Moon, on the Moon, on my Moon

Need to escape Earth's gravity to not go crazy, ah yeah
Need to escape Earth's gravity to not go crazy, ah yeah

The brain is heavy (yeah, the brain is heavy)
The brain is heavy (yeah, the brain is heavy)
The brain is heavy

On the Moon, on the Moon
The world's problems seem small when I see them from the Moon
On the Moon, all my dreams float, I sweep the star dust with my feather
On the Moon I would walk, a small step for Man, a big step for my freedom
On the Moon, on the Moon, on my Moon
