C'est le Bon Lyrics
I never knew what a man was supposed to be
I never wanted the responsibility
I still remember what they tried to make of me
They used to wonder why they couldn't get through to me
Cause all that I had was this music, a coming to me
And all that I had was this rhythm, running through me
I took a tip from the man from the ministry
he said, "my son, better work in the factory"
well there were days, I can tell you quite honestly
I saw myself ending up in the military
so lucky to have all this music, coming to me
I'm lucky to have all this rhythm, running through me
I'm watching the movie go down, around, about me
I'm watching the merry go round, go down, about me
I said lovers, you're needed in the garden
cause there's a lot of crazy people
who've forgotten where their heart is
and they don't give a damn,
about hurting those flowers and trees
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, bon bon, sailing on and on
sometimes I wonder where my life is taking me
sometimes I wonder what they all expect of me
well there are days I can tell you quite honestly
I see myself ending up in the monastery
cause all that I have is this music a coming to me
and all that I have is this rhythm, a running through me
I'm watching the move go down around about me
I'm watching the merry go round, go down about me
I said lovers, you're needed in the garden
cause there's a lot of crazy people
who've forgotten where the heart is
and they don't give a damn
about hurting the small child in me
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, bon bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
I never wanted the responsibility
I still remember what they tried to make of me
They used to wonder why they couldn't get through to me
And all that I had was this rhythm, running through me
he said, "my son, better work in the factory"
well there were days, I can tell you quite honestly
I saw myself ending up in the military
I'm lucky to have all this rhythm, running through me
I'm watching the movie go down, around, about me
I'm watching the merry go round, go down, about me
cause there's a lot of crazy people
who've forgotten where their heart is
and they don't give a damn,
about hurting those flowers and trees
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, bon bon, sailing on and on
sometimes I wonder what they all expect of me
well there are days I can tell you quite honestly
I see myself ending up in the monastery
and all that I have is this rhythm, a running through me
I'm watching the move go down around about me
I'm watching the merry go round, go down about me
cause there's a lot of crazy people
who've forgotten where the heart is
and they don't give a damn
about hurting the small child in me
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, bon bon, sailing on and on

i-m imagining a school boy ... some call him rudy in his moments of words unspoken ... but his logic found a way of becoming a boy again so now this is a moment of optimism ... cause he-s back and he learned how to fly in life trough music.
Think what you like of Roger Hodgson but he is one of the most honest songwriters on the planet. This is about his story, his coming of age, and he's telling us to illustrate the fact that there are others like him. Maybe even the listener.
Lovers - you are sorely needed in this world of hate and bigotry. A world that thinks nothing of crushing others' hopes and dreams.
