"To be honest, I am not here.
The words you speak I cannot hear.
Your lips are ghosts in black and white,
Like an old film brings out delight
And lies / and waves
Good byes to all
Them slaves.
This is a joke you love to tell
Nobody laughs but you don't care
It's about power, oh boy you swell,
We need some dreams for you to spare
No lies / just waves.
But ties us all
And saves
All your clouds for you to sell
And your / pockets down they have a smell
Dead clouds / in your pockets might sell well
But hear / There is sunshine down in mine.
I have my way
I am away.
Please don't see me.
Please don't hear me.
I'm not here."

Bogeyman's Grin

Bogeyman's grin.
Here all by myself, wait'n for the moon to rise,
Gators all around, look like a bunch of flies,
Load your gun, dad said, and don't miss this time
If you wish him dead, prearrange your crime.
A knife,
A polished grin,
When they see me come
I don't look mean.
I see the target
A bogeyman
Or so he thinks for it's who I am
Ain't hard to get
Ain't hard to kill
For I'm the bogeyman and I go for a chill.
Finger on the trigger, blood about to spill,
Cat's eyes pierce the night, I'm just lying still.
Grab him by the neck, he's down in the plants
My blade starts to dig and he wets his pants.
Yeah I'm talkin' to you .
You will only take your
memories down
into your grave

Welcome To The Sun

Welcome to the sun
Here on the sand
hearing my soul
feeling so small
losing control
today I awake
in a hole and
people live
Up above
Here on the sand
Listening to the voice
Saying to me to
Follow her call
She says : « you know
How to fly
How to reach
The way to the sun »
Let's build a wall to jump to somewhere else
Give me a leg up, we are going to space
Don't worry my friend, we don't need to keep the pain,
Leave 'em time to those who like counting
No matter if you are lower than the sand
The pretty voice shows you the way to the land
A place where light doesn't burn at all
welcome into your home , welcome into the sun
If I die, don't forget you're welcome into the sun
Open your soul, my son, and let's get through the night
No matter if you are lower than the sand
the pretty voice is yours and I am inside the sun
welcome into your home, welcome into the sun.

Never say good-bye
There's some gifts we never wipe out.
Life suddenly feels so bright.
Blood in his veins makes a start
A rush into my heart.
Since this day I only try to find a place and keep a tie.
Nothing is more vital than your eyes
Shining with the most brilliant light.
But who knows.
I will see you outside when
You know
There is no cage that can hide
Our soul,
'Cause we never said goodbye.
I am proud
You don't need any disguise.
Don't worry, my child,
My twin, my only try,
I will keep an eye.
I'm waiting for you.
When the wind takes you,
I will come through.

End Is A Start

End is a start
Day by day I build a wall of sound (silence)
Don't know what's the side where I can
Hide my soul and ,well, walk on your line.
Expecting our end.
It brings me down, to cross your eyes.
All the days I have left in this minefield
She gives you a crown and a cloud of flies
That whispers to you that you're the one to feel.
It seems unfair to call a friend
A traitor without talking to him
Listen to her, go on, pretend.
On your angry chair let her fan the flames.
Who's the meanest ?
Hey, don't think twice !
Hey, I'm all right !
'Need to turn around
And walk away !
I need to turn around and walk away, walk away

When She Comes

When she comes
Sometimes I feel these strings up above my head.
I'm blind but she whispers to me there is a thread.
Sometimes I fear she never wakes again.
I climb and I glimpse, days become my friends.
I want to spin out this feeling when she comes.
I want to spin out this spleen when she comes.

Washing-Machine
Speechless, empty eyes
Waiting for a break now.
I'm not sure but it seems that I drowned.
I'm turning crazy, does any end allow ?
Washing-machine, squeeze me, and give me another ride.
Day and night
I'm losing sight,
Crawling like a worm.
Bulging eyes,
Day and night
I hear outcry,
Waitin' on the end of the storm,
Eating up my mind.

Burnt My Home
No soul in this letter
I just received from the City Hall
They want me out of my own gutter,
The sweet old place where I learnt to crawl
Where I was born
Born.
Some say (it)'s a hole
A hole.
They call it muddy water,
Shit shack and devil's throne
They say I would be better off
in a coffin under a gravestone
They want my home
My home
They need me gone
Me gone.
Got
Gas
And Grand Pa's lighter
Flames
Pass
The night gets brighter.
I wanna burn my home
In this old lonesome town
So they don't take my home
Though they want me dead and gone
And I wanna burn my home
And I say damn their loan
Damn their banks, I'm a slave
And there's nothing left to save
But ourselves
But ourselves
Say you're sorry and save yourselves.
I burnt my home
Can't remember
My life is ashes – lord !
And there's blood 'n laughter
And I will do it again
And I will burn all of you, lads
For what you took from me was priceless
And I did burn my home
burnt my home
The house is down, no more shelter,
I burnt my place and it smells like hell.
But don't frown, I feel better
Next life I live I know you shouldn't dwell
Burn your home
Your home
And roam
Roam.

Dirty Bootz Montpellier, France
Way aside the usual circuit of the small urban rock bands, far from the cities and their pointless hustle and bustle, Dirty Bootz sure makes a difference with its quiet radicalness and its attachment to a bunch of rock'n'roll traditions we all thought were gone : buckets of sweat, a honest smile and a goddamned soul. ... more
