Moi j'suis comme une bombe 
Qu'on a larguée 
Et puis qui tombe au beau milieu 
D'un slow d'enfer sans partenaire 
Moi j'suis pas faite pour les dollars 
Les défaites 
J'ai un chagrin de Baby Doll 
Sans idylle 
Sans idole 

Et j'vis comme une boule de flipper 
Qui roule 
Avec les oreillers du coeœur 
En boule 
Et j'vis comme une boule de flipper 
Qui roule 
Voilier si t'as pas de skipper 
Tu coules 
J'lis des romans fleuve 
Il faut qu'j'oublie pour être toute neuve 

Les souvenirs c'est du poison 
Au goût citron 
J'rêve à des endroits 
Que j'me dessine du bout des doigts 
Sur les miroirs de mon studio 
Pas d'histoire, pas d'photo 

Et j'vis comme une boule de flipper 
Qui roule 
Tous mes beaux châteaux d'Equateur 
S'écroulent 
Et j'vis comme une boule de flipper 
Qui roule 
Capitaine d'un bateau chanteur 
Tu coules 

Et j'vis comme une boule de flipper 
Qui roule 
Tous mes beaux châteaux d'Equateur 
S'écroulent 
Et j'vis comme une boule de flipper 
Qui roule 
Capitaine d'un bateau chanteur 
Tu coules
