Michel Polnareff

Fame a la mode
Flashbulbs explode
All the electronic circuits overload
When you are the show,
Then you know the show,
Must go on.
Hitting the road
Salaries over
Im responsible for shouldering the load
When you are the show,
Then you know the show,
Must go on.
Drag cicsel queen
Wearing crush velveteen
Cant someone slow down the machine ?
Too much caffeine
And too much nicotine
Someone slow down the machine
Im longing for space
Longing for time
Why cant folks just say what they mean ?
Why cant this ever-lovin life Im leading
Ever feel clean ?
Slow down the machine
I really need so bad to unwind
I really need to rest my mind
Velvet stocade
Spiked lemonade
Fifty magazine reporters to persuade
When you are the show,
Then you know the show,
Must go on.
Making the grade
Not getting paid
Im rehearsing for a ticker-tape parade
When you are the show,
Then you know the show,
Must go on.
Gotta get a scene, chippy, chip, chip scene
Chippy, chip, chip, chip star-cripperss dream
Please slow down the machine, trippy !
Cream limousins,
Black and blue scream
Please
Longing for space
Longing for time
Why cant folks just say what they mean ?
Why cant this ever-lovin life Im leading ever feel clean ?
Slow down the machine
I really need so bad to unwind
I really need to rest my mind
(Merci ? Lucille pour cettes paroles)
