L'avenir est planétaire
Y'a six milliards d'humains sur terre
Mais chacun vie sa vie en solitaire

Chacun a ses habitudes
Chacun a ses certitudes
Et l'amour est la pire des solitudes

Quand l'univers m'indiffère
Quand j'ai plus envie de rien faire
Quand la vie m'endort comme un somnifère

J'ai inventé la formule
Qui vaut mieux que toutes les pilules
Même si ça me donne l'air d'une somnambule

Je de-de-de-danse dans ma tête
Je de-de-de-danse dans ma tête
Je de-de-de-danse dans ma tête

Que je sois debout dans le métro
Que je sois assise à mon bureau
Tous les jours les mêmes mots
Les mêmes gestes de robot

Y a de quoi devenir fou
Et vous qu'en pensez-vous?
Y a vraiment de quoi devenir fou
Mais moi je m'en fout

Je de-de-de-danse dans ma tête
Je de-de-de-danse dans ma tête
Je de-de-de-danse dans ma tête

Quoi qu'on fasse ou quoi qu'on dise
De partout on nous satellise
On nous épie, on nous informatise

À force de la regarder
Je commence à me demander
Si ma télé ne va pas m'avaler

Dehors les néons s'allument
All right!
Je préfère regarder la lune
All night
Étendue nue sur mon lit
Dans la chaleur de la nuit

Les sirènes de police
Hurlent comme des loups
Je voudrais comme Alice
Tomber dans un grand trou

Je de-de-de-danse dans ma tête
Je de-de-de-danse dans ma tête
Je de-de-de-danse dans ma tête
