We agree I don't look like much
In every way, I'm warning you
That up against your pop-star schedules
And just by strumming on my guitar
That's your whole commercial success
And I think, crucially
You'll have to scale down
The market share of your showbiz
The Rihannas, the Christina Aguileras
I'm gonna put you at ease
It's French chanson
Watch out, Madonnas and Shakiras
Plus all the ones I don't know
I'm gonna put you at ease
It's French chanson
Far from doing your world tours
Nicely tucked inside my social class
I'm not a powerhouse singer
And even if you dance way better than me
The cartel-made hegemony
Of muses in garter belts
Right in the system's bull's-eye
In the same genre panel
The Rihannas, the Christina Aguileras
I'm gonna put you at ease
It's French chanson
Watch out, Madonnas and Shakiras
Plus all the ones I don't know
I'm gonna put you at ease
It's French chanson
It's not groove, it's not funk
I don't hide like Daft Punk
And far from wanting to change the world
With these 3 minutes and 54 seconds
Within the format and the quotas
Unlike David Guetta
And when I let myself speak
It's always in Molière's tongue
The Rihannas, the Christina Aguileras
I'm gonna put you at ease
It's French chanson
Watch out, Madonnas and Shakiras
Plus all the ones I don't know
I'm gonna put you at ease
It's French chanson
