When Maurice Meets Alice

Hubert-Félix Thiéfaine (French pronunciation: [ybɛʁ feliks tjefɛn]) is a French pop-rock singer and songwriter. He was born on 21 July 1948 in the town of Dole in the Jura département.

beaucoup de mes formules ignares 
flottent au-dessus de vagues hospices 
derrière les écluses & les gares
derrière les glands des frontispices
où les amants d'une autre guerre
ont joué sur d'autres marelles
un pied sur le continent terre
& l'autre sur l'écran du ciel 
when maurice meets alice

avec un fichier sur leurs chances
& des fleurs sur leurs matricules
elle était belle comme un enfer
avec ses yeux bleus d'insomnie
il était fort comme l'est un père
quand on le regarde petit 
when maurice meets alice 

elle, elle était surtout fortiche
pour faire les mômes & les aimer
lui, il rallumait sa cibiche
avant de partir pour pointer
& nous on était la marmaille
disciplinée mais bordélique
à les emmerder vaille que vaille
pour les rendre plus prophétiques 
when maurice meets alice
