lyrics
Five nice girls born under the same star de-cided to hold a party for their birthday ; five nice girls rented a room where they invited friends to share this gorgeous day.
And the party’s goin’on, everybody’s havin’ lots of fun, the sweat, the smoke of cigarettes fill the room, there’s less and less air to breathe…
Me, I just sit in a corner of this room, drin-king and smoking as some selfish philosopher. It all looks like some expressionist painting, the dancers as flames twisting and turning on the grey walls.
And suddenly a voice resounds inside my head, saying : “Nothing here is real, all you see is illusion, quick levitation ; let it blow your mind for a little time…”
The beer goes slowly inside my belly, then into my veins, it travels to my brain.
Everything’s unreal and it will remain the same throughout the night, now that you are at the party…
There’s no way out of here but it doesn’t matter, I’ve no desire to escape from this place.
It feels like eternity since the party began, still the flames twist and turn, still the air burns.
