Dans les villes de grande solitude
Moi le passant bien protégé
Par deux mille ans de servitude
Et quelques clous sur la chaussée

Dans les villes de grande solitude
De nouvel-an en nouveaux nés
Quand j'ai bu plus que d'habitude
Me vient la faim d'un carnassier

L'envie d'éclater une banque
De me crucifier le caissier
D'emporter tout l'or qui me manque
Et de disparaître en fumée

Mais dans les villes de grande solitude
Tous les héros se sont pollués
Aux cheminées du crépuscule
Et leurs torrents se sont calmés

Alors je fonce comme une bête
Sur le premier sens interdit
Aucun feu rouge ne m'arrête
Je me sens bien dans ma folie

J'ai envie de violer des femmes
De les forcer à m'admirer
Envie de boire toutes leurs larmes
Et de disparaître en fumée

Mais dans les villes de grande solitude
Quand l'alcool s'est évaporé
Je replonge dans la multitude
Qui défile au pas cadencé

J'ai peur d'avoir brisé des vitres
D'avoir réveillé les voisins
Mais je suis rassuré très vite
C'est vrai que je ne casse rien

C'est vrai que je ne casse rien
C'est vrai que je ne casse rien
Dans les villes de grande solitude
Dans les villes de grande solitude
C'est vrai, c'est vrai que je ne casse rien
Dans les villes, dans les villes de grande solitude
C'est vrai que je ne casse rien
C'est vrai, c'est vrai que je ne casse rien
Dans les villes, dans les villes de grande solitude
Dans les villes de grande solitude

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
