At Staircase C, Block 21
I live in a very nice apartment
Than my father, if all goes well
Will have paid off in less than 20 years
We have maximum comfort
An elevator and a bathroom
We have TV, telephone
And the view of Paris in the distance
On Sunday, my mother tidy up
While my father, on TV
Watch sports religiously
And I take the opportunity to leave
(…)
At the airport, we see them flying away
Planes for all countries
All afternoon there is something to dream about
I feel ants in my ideas
When I come home after dark
At five to seven every morning
Nicole and I take the metro
As we are still sleeping, we say nothing to each other
And everyone goes to their work
When in the evening I find my bed
I hear the Boeings singing up there
I love them, my night owls
And I will go find them soon
Yeah, I'll go to Orly on Sunday
At the airport, we see them flying away
Planes for all countries
For a lifetime there is something to dream about
One day, from up there, block 21
Will be nothing more than a whole, very small point
