Say Yes To Life
(2010, évoqué pour We’re Only In It For The Ice Creams II)

lyrics

with your head stuck on the window of your noisy surburb train
you're stunned by the amount of normal people who work from nine to seven
you want a different life with odd places and friends that would make you look special
you are scared of this guy near you who phones his wife just to tell her he's coming home but

it's ok, he's not sad
he has said yes to life
it's not wasting time that
living just like anyone

and on the little pages of your tiny notebook you keep writing those lines :
"We are like roses that have never bothered to bloom when we should have bloomed and
it is as if the sun has become disgusted with waiting"
and you read it again, finding the words of this boredom you can't describe in someone else poetry, but

it's ok, don't trust that
books are not the real life
it's not wasting time that
living just like anyone

it's ok, don't be sad
no big things will come to you but
oh you still have life
just not the one you'd have liked

it's ok, don't be sad
and just say yes to life
it is not wasting time
to live like anyone

(2010, évoqué pour We’re Only In It For The Ice Creams II)

credits

from Oh Dear, Those Were The Days, released August 31, 2022
le morceau date de 2008 et avait été publié sur myspace à l'époque dans une légitime indifférence générale. il avait été réenregistré en février-mars 2010 pour une potentielle présence sur compile ou sur un album, mais quelqu'un avait dû m'en dissuader (coucou théophile?). je ne regrette pas car c'était plus fun de mettre prettyland que ce truc cafardeux. mais maintenant que je n'ai plus aucun garde-fou, allons y de bon cœur. la citation du deuxième couplet vient d'un poême, très beau, de charles bukowski.
