paroles de chanson Danger Ahead - Vanessa Daou

Come along and walk among us
The Polyglots, the Octoroons,
The derelict, the ones
Whose shoes never seem to fit
We who feel the pulse of time
We who thumb our chancy rides
On highways with no lines

Love among the shadowed things
Bits of broken glass, a flag strewn from a window
Girls with braids in their hair lifting up their skirts
To dare boys with their fathers' urges
Come along and walk among us who are free
Down this dirty road the sign says 'Danger Ahead'

Love among the littered lives
Where only the lovers survive naked in the snow
"Surprise Inside", a Cracker Jack ring
A thousand licks of my pink confection

Come along and walk among us when the night falls
Take your pain and scrawl a message on the wall

I am not afraid, it's the land of the brave
Use your pen as revenge

We who ink our names on arms
And heads and thighs
We who thumb our chancy rides
On highways with no lines
