On est chez nous (x 4)

Je fais jaillir de l'eau des aisselles et du front
Je suis celui qui danse et fait faire des bonds
Je fais lever les bras et que dans nos poumons
Toute la nicotine en demande pardon
Je fais le Po! Je fais la révolte des basses
Et que dans les oreilles on en garde la trace
Je fais la nuit qui fait pas rire les notables
Oui je la fais, je mets les cartes sur la table
Je fais le mixe qui dégoûte pas du vote
Je le fais cool pour pas qu'on s'y casse les côtes
Je dénonce et si tu m'envoies pas dans les ronces
Je te ferai ma danse du quinconce

On est chez nous (x 4)

Je fais la colère de ceux qui ont appris
Que le respect ne s'est jamais donné mais pris
Je fais les Incas les forêts perdues
Et les petits que les grands n'ont jamais vaincus
A défaut des voiles et des cinquante deux étoiles
Je dessine à la main une troisième étoile
Je fais la marinade des peuples métisses
Pas de salade, je fais monter les épices
Je fais le chaud et tout le chagrin des cithares
Les castagnettes qui envoient, et même le peuple noir
Tout ce qui nous décollera au moins la tempe
Qu'on dégoupille 'Mais que sans jamais ça pampe

On est chez nous (x 4)

Je fais la soif et puis la marche des exclus
Qu'on sorte ce qu'est moche et qu'on en parle plus
On marche dans le topo pas de doute
Et je rajoute, je rajoute, allez rajoute
On voulait juste une seconde voir en nous
La sale bête qui dit "on est plus chez nous"
Je fais la pluie pour ça, je fais même le cri
On se fout des manières et des modes et du prix
Pourvu que nos chemises en soient réduites
En éponge ! On rentre torse nu cette nuit
On pourra dire, nous, qu'on était présent
Et qu'un jour on a vu ce qu'on avait dedans

On était chez nous (x 4)

Je fais jaillir de l'eau des aisselles et du front
Je suis celui qui danse et fait faire des bonds
Je fais lever les bras et que dans nos poumons
Toute la nicotine en demande pardon
Je fais le Po ! Je fais la révolte des basses
Et que dans les oreilles on en garde la trace
Je fais la nuit qui fait pas rire les notables
Oui je la fais, je mets la carte sur la table
Je fais le mixe qui dégoûte pas du vote
Je le fais cool pour pas qu'on s'y casse les côtes
Je dénonce et si tu m'envoies pas dans les ronces
Je te ferai ma danse du quinconce

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."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
