Thanks To Berlioz
They have found their place,
In offices, administrations, companies,
Now they are proud, beautiful, radiant,
God keep us safe, they are brilliant,
If they can leave me alone,
The circle will be complete; I would not have to fight anymore,
They will continue to shine, to be beautiful,
Whatever they want,
I wouldn’t meet them again,
I prefer to listen to the song of the blackbird.
NB : the last verse is a phrase in a lied by Berlioz
I was a teacher in a previous life, and had to fight hard with these people, i was in the wrong place, at the wrong moment
