Paroles de Jarre In Hicksville

Jean Michel Jarre came to Hicksville, too ra loo ra aye

The music, smoke and lasers blew the people all away

He ruined the musicians, they'll never play again
Without adding a lick or two they heard in 'Oxygene'



Jean Michel Jarre in Hicksville at the time of the eclipse

Frightened all the ladies but delighted all the kids

He played a bank of synths they'd never seen before or since

And on that day they threw away their wooden violins



They've built themselves a synthesiser, smashed their old guitars

Made laser shows with a mirror and smoke with their cigars

They play on stoops and porches now for tourists and for friends

A choice of 'Revolutions', 'Equinox' or 'Oxygene'
