Armées dans le Tarn
Appel à tous les citadins
qui sentent arriver la fin
où il sera bientôt temps d'aller
à la campagne pour se sauver
en pensant éviter le pire
y'a quelque chose qu'il faut vous dire
Armés dans le Tarn
Ils sont armés dans le Tarn
Armés dans le Tarn
Ils sont armés dans le Tarn
Armés dans le Tarn
Ils sont armés dans le Tarn
Quand crève de faim le métropole
on peut pas manger du pétrole
on s'en ira en toute logique
piller les fermes biologiques
mais les paysans ils sont pas cons
ils se protègent, ils combattront
Armés dans le Tarn etc.
Tireurs d’elite dans les Cammazes
des canards formés en kamikazes
des bunkers construits sous les granges
les enfants formés en phalanges
et cachés parmi les biquettes
des grenades et des lance-roquettes
Armés dans le Tarn etc.
Gare aux terribles bataillons
dans l’Aude, le Gers et l’Aveyron
des armées secrètes et puissantes
dans la Champagne et les Charentes
Des unités de femmes protègent
les collectifs en Ariège
Ils sont armés dans le Tarn etc.

VAROUFAKIS BLUES
Well I woke up this morning and I wish I'd stayed in bed
There was an awful smell of burning coming from the garden shed
Imagine how my poor heart sank, I went to take a look
There was the European Central Bank and the usual band of crooks
They had entire countries in there, hangin up on hooks
Doing economic vivisection and – cooking the books
I said, If you're going to stay here boys you'd better pay some rent
They said, Oh no we're taking over, and I guess that's what they meant
'Cos they moved into the garden and they occupied the flat
Emptied out the kitchen cupboards and they privatised the cat
'N' when they'd taken everything they said Hey, do you wanna make a deeeeeeal?
I said, You make me think of someone and I do believe I know just how he feels
They try to tell me it's just one of those bad patches
I've seen it all before, you can say that I've had practice
They've taken all I've got and now I think they're gonna execute me toooooooo
My head is on the block, I hear them sharpening the axes
They gave me a last cigarette but they took away the matches
The man with the Beretta's asking why I can't relax it's
'Cos I've got the Varoufakis blues
I went to talk to Angela, said, Hey Angie what's your goal?
Everything you put your hands on just – turns into coal
She said, keep it in the family, we can't let you out
I said, this kind of family ain't what it's all about
She said it's Hotel Europa, you can't ever leeeeeeave
Oh well I guess I'll keep on smilin', make them think I'm hiding somethin up my sleave
That's what you get from talking to the bank
they got me tied up and blindfolded, got me walking the plank
We’re heading for the storm and in the morning who knows what we're gonna doooo
A sinking boat that won't change tack
if I kick back it's gonna crack
that Golden Dawn looks mighty black, it's
giving me the Varoufakis blues
I went to the Captain, said if you ain't gonna fight
I don't like what's happenin', gonna creep into the night
You might not believe me but the facts'll prove me right
The last one out of the country will you please turn out the light
They've got a rope around your neck and and you’re the one that’s gonna pull the noose
He said, What you got that's better? I said, Heck, I've got the Varoufakis blues
They're killin our democracy - it's Acropolis Now
They're milking the populace like some kind of golden cow
If this goes any further well I'll tell you what it's for
They're gonna take our children, feed them to the Minotaur
And the rules that Midas made us
They're gonna curse us
I’m feeling mighty sick now but they've fired all the nurses
The roads are full of hearses
We've got nothing in our purses
Hey, bring back Perseus
maybe he'll know what to do
Cos we're on the rack and it ain't nice
The banks've got us in the vice
And the newspapers are turning all the screws
If I stop kicking well I'm sure they're even gonna take my shoes
It's maybe just a lack of practice
maybe some charismatic diplomat'll come along with rice in sacks, yes
maybe Superman'll come along and put the train back on the tracks
maybe Spiderman'll come along with some kind of magic gluuuuuue
Cos I ain't solvent but Goldman Sachs is
just give me a few more days to crack this
Cos I'm a mean Varoufakis and I'm sure as hell a comin' after yoooou
Maybe no-one else likes me but you know I doooo
'Cos my biggest fan is a guy called Yanis
and I ain't gonna tell you what my plan is
but I'm a mean Varoufakis and I'm sure as hell a comin' after yoooou
They think they've got us at their beck and call
They fixed the cards and now we're going to change the deck and all
We'll see who's the highest and who're the ones that's gonna fall
What's that called?
Heck, that's called the Varoufakis blues
