I got the message and the message is clear
I really, really, really, really wish you were here
It was written on the back of a carton d'allumettes
It says I don't really miss you but I haven't tried yet

I got the message and the message is proof
There really is a thing they call the rhythm of youth
It will pick you up and it will make you wiggle this way
Et c'est facile a dire and it's easy to say

Well, it's mine
(They got this thing they call the rhythm of life)
Not yours
(It says to settle down and get a dog and a wife)

Get down
(And everybody's doing it all over the land)
On all fours
(Et oui je ne comprends pas, oh yes, I don't understand)

It's long
(I got the message and the message is clear)
And hard
(I really, really, really, really wish you were here)

This road
(It was written on the back of a carton d'allumettes)
To mars
(I don't really miss you but I haven't tried yet)

Got a good thing, yeah, got you going
Everybody's moving, watch out it's showing

I have done a good thing
I've got you dancing, everybody's happy
I have done a good thing
I've got you moving, everybody's dancing
They're really grooving
I have done a good thing don't dansez moderne, everybody's happy

Nos tetes contre les murs
