Feel the world(The Guy's birth)
(Renevret)
I’m out of the womb
You’re about to see me cry
Blessed fate or doom
You’re about to see me try
You’re about to see me try
Everybody get out of the room
Make room for The Guy
I’m about to show you where it’s at
Make room for The Guy
I know where it’s all getting at
I’m on my way to the tomb
You’re about to see me die
Hurray for the bride and groom
They’ve got a baby called The Guy

Need for tales
(Boisselet)
Hearing voices saying
Look out in this world
Mind what you’re doing
All will be well afterwards
They say : “Come and think with us, become what we are
Lie down in the hearse
We’ll drive the car”
Should I pray to save my fate?
Do I live in a tragedy?
That’s not what I want to hear
You cannot enslave me by fear
Yeah, The Guy can live
through any gales, I’m sorry I’m not in need for tales

Books speak the truth
And here is the same old story
“Don’t sin, respect the rules
Stick to morality”-Some words from the tale and I should be saved from my misery ?

I don’t want to be a puppet
I should live as if tomorrow were today but I feel beyond hope, there are too many books on the shelf of thought
For a transformative mechanism in my mind on my brain
I need vital energy and I will never be blind again

Nobody knows the trouble I’ll see. Maybe it’s true I’ll go to glory

You too ? (part one)
(Renevret)
Opening my lids
But, God forbids,
Everything’s just a blur
Grasping a chair
Gasping for air
Impossible to stir

Original lyrics and melody : O. Dupuy

1988 (Renevret)
I believed in what you said, it was so fine.
I believed in what you said, it was so mine.
Why wouldn’t I ?
How couldn’t I ?
I believed in what they said they wore a tie.
All was calm and sweet
and all, good for The Guy.
Where was the debate ?
I was only eight.
Water-crossed I trod the
cold, I was already so old So young and never so wise
Today I have won the prize
Thank you, Love has lied.
So happy your tried.

More than a number (Boisselet)
You've given me a name and classed me with human species
You have the ability
To decode my DNA
Download numbers and I'm in your virtual directories
I'm just a picture for you,
I think it leads you astray
Can't you see
I'm more than a number ?
Can't you feel
I'm not a sequence of letters ?
Tell me it's a dud,
it's only a cover
Tell me you'll be soon
looking closer
Immaterial pictures make no sense without learning. You don't see what I am, you read information only. This world's made of signs hiding what is real what's the meaning.
There will be no meeting if your mind 's not totally free.
I think about what you see when you look at me. Is it so
important if you don't live the present time ? Yeah I'm more than a past symbol but finally It doesn't matter what I could be because I AM

Trip Poker
(Renevret)
Stop it now I don’t feel like losing more clothes tonight.
Poker suits me like a handless man trying a kite.
I don’t have any trousers, you’re going to see my thighs.
You’re about to see me roll my head and whisper sighs.
I drop sugar in the milk.
I put myself into a drink
I just can't explain how
I can't tell what's really now
In my head
Baby you’re the one for me I need to see you nude.
Since you’ve got all your clothes on I feel like I’ve been screwed. All this time, we’ve shared this room, I’m still sure that you can’t
Do everything I fancy, everything that I want.
I spill my blood into the milk
I break my teeth right on the sink.I just can’t explain now,
I can’t tell really how
Is my head…

You too ? (part two)
(Renevret/Senet)
My hands wanna rest
Needles in them
Rubber bonds around them
Going to cuckoo’s nest I feel dizzy I know that they’ve got me

Soother (Renevret)
Please sit down.
How’re you doing ?
What a wonderful dress.
Is this a crown you’re wearing ? You look just like a princess.
Is it you I have seen
In my dreams all along ?
The Guy and you if you’re keen, We could make love before long.
Let’s go down, that’s the thing
How could I want you less ?
Take off that gown, everything,
Strip down my loneliness
Is it you ? Is it real ?
How could I wait so long ?
The Guy and you,I can feel,
That it shall never go wrong.

Soul mate
(Renevret)


I love you in ferrys,
I love you in trains
Across any countries,
With you it never rains.
All I see is fate.
You’re my soulmate

Every time you smile at me
I live again
You’re the only girl I see
You’re all of them
I crave for you so much
So much

Imagine what it would be
Life without you
I beg you on my knees
Let me have you
Never let the Guy down
Never let me down

Ben dedicates this song

Welcome to this world
(Boisselet)

Those who want to change the world without changing themselves
Those who want to change others to feel better among them
Those who are indignant about atrocities they see on TV
Those who will forget
After some ads
Will you be one of them ?

I really don’t know if I can tell you “welcome to this world”

Those who preach but don’t practise
Those who teach before they learn
Those who believe mankind is good
Those who will die for an ideal
Will you be one of them ?

Inconsistency of some of us afflicted by stupidity without seeing their reflection in the screen

Lyrics, vocals, piano : L. Boisselet
Production : Eric Senet
Cheesy daddy voice : Benoît Renevret

You too ? (part three)
(Renevret/Senet)

It’s all coming back to me
The struggle, the wails,
Gravels under my nails,
Desperate attempts
to break free,
That’s not where I wanna be.
I feel like my mouth’s
full of cray
I feel like I’m their prey

One last kick
One last click
Then all is dark and cold
Why have you done this
to me girl ?
I think I have to hurl.
What the fuck have I been
doing wrong ?
Don’t think I will last long

And if I die, You will too,
You’ll never make it through

The Guy and you,
we could have been
This old couple I’d forseen

Original lyrics : Olivier Dupuy
Music, production : Eric Senet
Vocals : Benoît Renevret
Vocals : Lionel Boisselet


It’s OK (Renevret/Boisselet/Senet)

When we met a while ago
I was nothing but a hobo
I never thought that it’d be you
Who could teach me what is true

I let it be, I let it go
Every yes became a no
You’ve given me your forgiveness
Soothing my pain and my sadness

You can never take it away
But it’s OK as long as you stay

Pumping pain through my fingers
In my memory still lingers
It’s been so long since I’ve felt it
I’m tired of sadness, I quit

You saw all that hurt me best
Invisible to the rest
Saw the staples on every vein
Only you can ease the pain

The Guy and you if you’d like it
We could soon be doin’ it.

Sensible (Renevret/Boisselet)

I just want to do something. Please, just a little thing.
Something to get me on board. Something to get me un-bored.
Beard scratching. Nose picking Dozing. Sleeping still.Dozing. Pen scratching. Cock raising Because she’s so amazing.
Wake in panic! Where are you ? Look around.
They’re sleeping too !
Tiny waist and tiny breast I can figure out your breath.
Dream, you dream, you dream you sleep, hard, hard open eyes to keep. Eyes open wide, brains are shut. Mouth useless. Tongue is cut.
See the thong stick out of fat. Think about a pussy-cat.
Panic stricken. Fast awake. Kind of hard
some notes to take.
Stand aside, I won’t give way
You will never be my prey.
Always I shall be faithful.
I’ve had enough. Cup is full.

See what you’ve done ? (Renevret/Senet)

Collapsing like a sore carcass
Getting up only to switch screens
To watch a program about beans,
I really wish I had purpose.
I wish I had but a compass,
To find a way out of my teens,
To find my way into your jeans,
I wish that there were still an “Us”.
See what you’ve done ?
See what you’ve done to me, now?
See that I’m gone ?
See that I’m gone for good, now?
Everything that you let me guess
I never quite get what it means
They’re not stories of kings and queens
Now you're no longer my princess
I really like it when you press
Your body against mine in dreams
I hope you'll be fine when it leans over my decomposed carcass

Other worlds(Boisselet)

Come on, experience this
Sensation
Better than a kiss
Turning to an obsession
Try again and see
On your brain
The double helix
Snakes in your veins
That’s not a trick

Other worlds so close
Where is the truth ?
Other worlds so easy
Where is reality ?

Log you on and taste
The world wide zoo
Neural interface
You’re a ghost crossing
the intermedia gate

I’m sorry for the cliché
But that’s not my way
I'm not in need
Of artificial means
Perhaps I go astray
Along a blind alley
But let me find, please
How to be free

Think about me (Delilah June)
Remember things hardly attained
Were not my friends
Remember not learned lessons
And deserved punishments
Remember discreet behaviour
Was my way to distant shores
Remember me myself and I
Think about me because
I’ve left for a land you’ve never talked about. Think about me.
I thank you for your stories
About the world
I thank you for your knowing winks
I thank you for your heartening words
I thank you for the way you see life, Think about me because
I’ve left for a land
That doesn’t exist.
I’ve left for a land
And we’ll never meet again
