Le sommeil du matamore

Messieurs, mesdames, mon moi et moi
Vont vous chanter leur oraison
Que j’ai vécue, enfant de chœur,
Dans mon sommeil de matamore

Je moissonne des capucines,
Des mandragores de couleur
Les soirs de brume sur la colline
Sur des losanges de sept lieues

Je pense à des mots de saisons
Comme l’amour jamais cassé
Comme l’extase des matins
Comme la pitié un vendredi

Je traverse des macadams
Dans des souliers de carabin
Rouges qui exhalent la mort 
Comm’ les bottes de Saint-Pierre

Les moralistes, parlons-en !
Ils nous tartinent le melon !
Allez pointer, mais allez donc
À vos comptoirs de xénophobes

Les prophètes ont signé un pacte :
Ces fous de Dieu qui puent de l’âme
Et qui refoulent du malheur,
Sonnent les cloches de leurs blâmes

Ils sont tous là comme des loups
Fumant des pieds sur leur empire
Pour Dieu, la mort c’est l’habitude
De nettoyer ses souvenirs

Quand la lumière se fait courage
C’est toujours l’autre qui a tort
Il n’aime que ce qu’il ignore
Ses essuie-glaces sont en panne

Tous leurs couloirs cassent la vie
Avec leurs portes colmatées
Surtout la nuit, elles me font mal.
Et j’entends ricaner les hyènes

Messieurs, mesdames, mon moi et moi
Vous ont chanté leur oraison
Que j’ai vécue, enfant de chœur,
Dans mon sommeil de matamore

The matamore's sleep

Gentlemen, ladies, me and I
Will sing you their oration
That I lived, choirboy,
In my matamore sleep

I harvest nasturtiums,
Colored mandragores
On foggy evenings on the hill
On seven-league rhombuses

I think of seasonal words
Like love never broken
Like the ecstasy of mornings
Like pity on a Friday

I cross macadams
In red shoes
Red with the smell of death 
Like Saint Peter's boots

Let's talk about moralists!
They're spreading the melon!
Go and punch the clock
To your xenophobic counters

The prophets have signed a pact:
God-fearing fools who stink of the soul
And repress misfortune,
Ring out their bells of blame

They're all out there like wolves
Smoking their empire with their feet
For God, death is the habit
To cleanse one's memories

When light becomes courage
It's always the other who's wrong
He only loves what he doesn't know
His windshield wipers are out of order

All their corridors break life
With their clogged doors
Especially at night, they hurt me.
And I hear the hyenas cackling

Gentlemen, ladies, me and I
Have sung their oration to you
That I lived, choirboy,
In my matamore sleep

Le sommeil du matamore (Jean-Paul Gaido-Daniel / Myckaël Marcovic), feat Jean-Paul Gaido-Daniel


Lyrics:

You’re gonna break up just a little bit   (improvised)
You’re gonna take it and run far far away
And when the time comes you never know when  it comes
You’ll be ready like it’s the end of days 
It’s a bluesy little ditty on the south side of town (artistic freedom. I don’t know anyone that lives down the south side of town)
And let’s turn all your frowns upside the hell down 
We’ve got the ocean deep in our minds
So the desert don’t faze us with its sands and lines 
Chorus: (You can sing the You had me at hello part)
You had me. You had me at hello       (Jerry Maguire but I prefer Roy Kent reference)
You had me. You had me at hello           
She said gentle with my black hair.         (True hook up story. Based on fact)
She said Gentle. I’m a little scared
Take me down to the river bed where I’ma be free. (Hell yeah)
And I got no reservations about the restaurant at 3. (At dorsia) (American Psycho reference)
No need for make up darling you can be bold. (Women all over the world be like, “hell no.”
One thousand arrows couldn’t blot our sun     (300 referenceYou had me at hello        
With the raindrops falling down your long black hair
 And I am sold
To the bidder with the clear doe eyes (true story. I was a senior in high school and auctioned off. I was alerted by some giggling girls in grade 10 that my gf had paid the highest price. Memoirs of a geisha indeed. Which makes me Gong Li geisha)
May you be ready
For an avalanche of things I’ll do for you (like what)   (the adlibs are taking the piss out of the incredibly romantic lyrics)
Clearly I have made my mistakes  (what mistakes) 
But I’ll be here for you            Verse 2
Oh what a drag. I’m sighing down your chest (this came before the movie quote before it which I thought tied the room together nicely. I’m not really a huge fan of huge bosoms but it…rhymes)
Pulling at your dress 
Oh she said yes, to twister after the date , a hell of a mess. (True story. Why else would I buy Twister?)
It’s a pulpy little fiction where we go around (Pulp Fiction reference)
And Heath still plays my favorite clown (heath ledger reference)
We’ve got the movies stuck in our minds
So the scenes don’t faze us when we lose our lines
You are my lover
You are my queen
You are my lover
Queen of everything

I swear. I will be ready
I Swear. I’ll see this to the end.




You Had Me (Feat. Herfsen)

this is another new track, recorded at the end of 2024.

Dreams from Elmstreet 11

Despair is not the Time to lose Hope

VOID
IN THE SILENCE OF THE NIGHT
I FEEL THE EMPTINESS INSIDE
A VOID THAT WON'T BE FILLED
WITH NOTHING, NOT EVEN WITH LOVE

(CHORUS)
THE EMPTINESS CONSUMES ME
LIKE A NEVER-ENDING HOLE
I SEEK SOMETHING TO FILL ME
BUT I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GO

IN THE CITY FULL OF LIGHTS
I FEEL MORE ALONE THAN EVER
LOST IN THE CROWD

(CHORUS)

I TRY TO FILL THIS EMPTINESS
WITH THINGS THAT DON'T SATISFY ME
AND I CANT ESCAPE FROM THIS

(CHORUS)

[COVERT ART BY FRASER CORMACK]

The Crown in the Gutter by The Jeremias Langsämmer Ensemble is a haunting and introspective classical piece that explores themes of grandeur intertwined with decay. The composition unfolds through delicate harp arpeggios, which evoke a sense of both fragility and elegance, contrasted by the rich, resonant tones of piano and strings. The strings, at times soaring and at others subdued, create an atmosphere of melancholy and reflection, while the piano’s thoughtful, measured notes provide a grounding, almost mournful undercurrent. The piece navigates the tension between regality and ruin, drawing the listener into a space where beauty and darkness coexist, much like the crown that lies forgotten in the gutter.
