Tu es foutu

by: Ingrid

Tu m'as promis
Et je t'ai cru...
Tu m'as promis le soleil en hiver et un arc en ciel
Tu m'as promis le sable doré j'ai reçu une carte postale
Tu m'as promis le ciel et la terre et une vie d'amour
Tu m'as promis ton coeur ton sourire mais j'ai eu des grimaces
Tu m'as promis
Et je t'ai cru...
Tu m'as promis le cheval ailé que j'ai jamais eu
Tu m'as promis le fil d'Ariane mais tu l'as coupé
Tu m'as promis les notes de Mozart pas des plats cassés
Tu m'as promis d'être ta reine, j'ai eu pour sceptre un balai
Tu m'as promis
Et je t'ai cru
Tu es foutu
Tu-tu-tu...
Tu es foutu
Tu-tu-tu ...
Je ne sais pas ce qui se passe
Mais je sais pourquoi on m'appelle "mademoiselle pas de chance"
Tu m'as promis
Et je t'ai cru
Tu es foutu
Tu-tu-tu...
Tu es foutu
Tu-tu-tu ...
