Hé mec, je me présente
Je m'appelle Charles-Henri Du Pré
J'habite à Neuilly
Dans un quartier mal paumé
Je suis fils unique
Dans un hôtel particulier
C'est la croix, la bannière
Pour me sustenter
Pas un Arabe du coin
Ni un Euromarché

Auteuil, Neuilly, Passy, tel est notre ghetto

Hé mec, mon nom à moi
C'est Hubert Valéry
Patrick Stanislas
Duc de Montmorency
À cinq ans et demi
J'avais déjà ma Ferrari
J'pouvais pas la conduire
Bien sûr, j'étais trop p'tit

As-tu saisi mon pote
Notre envie de révolte?
J'ai envie de crier
"Zut, flûte, crotte, chier"

Auteuil, Neuilly, Passy, c'est pas du gâteau
Auteuil, Neuilly, Passy, tel est notre ghetto

Salut, tu vas bien?
Salut, tu vas bien?

Y en a marre du Fauchon
Du Hédiard, du saumon, du caviar

Salut, c'est Patrick à l'appareil
Ouais, c'est Pat', tu vas bien?

Et moi, et moi, tu ne sais pas quelle est ma vie
À côtoyer Chantal ou bien Marie-Sophie
À faire le baise-main à des pétasses mal baisées
Enfin, j'ai voulu dire
Des filles un peu coincées

Je veux être un voyou
Vrai de vrai hors la loi
Mais quand t'es né ici
Vous n'avez pas le choix
Y en a marre des Mylène, Ségolène
Des Sylvie, Gwendoline, Églantine
Marie-Chantal

Y en a marre, mon frère
On a de gros problèmes
Y en a marre, mon frère
De subir le système

Mon avenir à moi est déjà tout tracé
Boîtes privées, Science PO, l'ENA ou H.E.C
Et dans le pire des cas
Si je ne travaille pas
Faudra que je reprenne
La boîte de papa

Salut, tu vas bien?

Auteuil, Neuilly, Passy, c'est pas du gâteau
Auteuil, Neuilly, Passy, tel est notre ghetto

Eh mec
Nous sommes tous les produits
D'une société économique
dépendante des fluctuations boursières
Qui déstabilisent le marché
Oui mec
Et pour sortir de ce carcan éducatif, capitaliste
Il faut savoir dire non, non, non, mec

Salut, tu vas bien?

Auteuil, Neuilly, Passy, c'est pas du gâteau
Auteuil, Neuilly, Passy, tel est notre ghetto
Auteuil, Neuilly, Passy, c'est pas du gâteau
Auteuil, Neuilly, Passy, tel est notre ghetto

S-s-salut

Nous sommes issus d'une famille qui n'a jamais souffert
Nous sommes issus d'une famille qu'on ne peut plus souffrir
Nous sommes issus d'une famille qui n'a jamais souffert
Nous sommes issus d'une famille qu'on ne peut plus souffrir

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
