Tu partiras

Tu partiras
Tu t'en iras
Avec un autre
C'est pas d'ta faute
C'est moi qui pue
Tu partiras
Mais ça ira
J'ai l'habitude
J'fais une étude
Sur les déçues

Tu partiras
Et tu reviendras
Pour tes affaires
Ce sera l'enfer
Du sang à la Une
Tu partiras
Et tu m’appelleras
Pour jouer des scènes
Hurler ta haine
Briser mes burnes

Tu partiras
J'savais déjà
Dès la rencontre
J'étais pas contre
C'est mieux que rien
Tu partiras
Et tu suivras
Les précédentes
Ces inconscientes
Qui m'aimaient bien

Tu partiras
C'est la vie
Toujours comme ça
Que ça finit
Tu partiras
C'est écrit
Ce qu'on vit là
C'est tout pourri

Alice Brock, who helped inspire Arlo Guthrie's classic 'Alice's Restaurant,' dies at 83

by Associated Press

NEW YORK --

Alice Brock, whose Massachusetts-based eatery helped inspire Arlo
Guthrie's deadpan Thanksgiving standard, Alice's Restaurant Massacree,
has died at age 83.

Her death, just a week before Thanksgiving, was announced Friday by
Guthrie on the Facebook page of his own Rising Son Records. Guthrie
wrote that she died in Provincetown, Massachusetts, her residence for
some 40 years, and referred to her being in failing health. Other
details were not immediately available.

"This coming Thanksgiving will be the first without her," Guthrie
wrote. "Alice and I spoke by phone a couple of weeks ago, and she
sounded like her old self. We joked around and had a couple of good
laughs even though we knew we'd never have another chance to talk
together."

Born Alice May Pelkey in New York City, Brock was a lifelong rebel who
was a member of Students for a Democratic Society among other
organizations. In the early 1960s, she dropped out of Sarah Lawrence
College, moved to Greenwich Village and married Ray Brock, a woodworker
who encouraged her to leave New York and resettle in Massachusetts.

Guthrie, son of the celebrated folk musician Woody Guthrie, first met
Brock around 1962 when he was attending the Stockbridge School in
Massachusetts and she was the librarian. They became friends and stayed
in touch after he left school, when he would stay with her and her
husband at the converted Stockbridge church that became the Brocks'
main residence.

On Thanksgiving Day, 1965, a simple chore led to Guthrie's arrest, his
eventual avoidance of military service during the Vietnam War and a
song that has endured as a protest classic and holiday favorite.
Guthrie and his friend Richard Robbins were helping the Brocks throw
out trash but ended up tossing it down a hill because they couldn't
find an open dumpster. Police charged them with illegal dumping,
briefly jailed them and fined them $50, a seemingly minor offense with
major repercussions.

By 1966, Alice Brock was running The Back Room restaurant in
Stockbridge, Guthrie was a rising star and his breakout song was an
18-minute talking blues that recounted his arrest and how it made him
ineligible for the draft. The chorus was a tribute to Alice -- whose
restaurant, Guthrie pointed out, was not actually called Alice's
Restaurant -- that countless fans have since memorized:

You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant / You can get
anything you want at Alice's Restaurant / Walk right in it's around the
back / Just a half a mile from the railroad track / You can get
anything you want at Alice's Restaurant.

Guthrie assumed his song was too long to catch on commercially, but it
soon became a radio perennial and part of the popular culture. Alice's
Restaurant was the title of his million-selling debut album, and the
basis of a movie and cookbook of the same name. Alice Brock would write
a memoir, My Life as a Restaurant, and collaborate with Guthrie on a
children's book, Mooses Come Walking. At the time of her death, they
had been discussing an exhibit dedicated to her at her former Stockton
home, now the Guthrie Center, which serves free dinners every
Thanksgiving.

Brock ran three different restaurants at various times, although she
would later acknowledge she initially didn't care much for cooking or
for business. She would also cite her professional life as a cause of
her marriage breaking up, while disputing rumors that she had been
unfaithful to her husband. Her honor was immortalized by Guthrie, who
late in Alice's Restaurant advised: "You can get anything you want" at
Alice's Restaurant, "excepting Alice."

Dans 10 ans

Dans 10 ans je serais heureux
C’est programmé
En attendant je suis valeureux
Comme une armée

Dans un an je retournerai
Chez belle-maman
Comme chaque année le même ennui mais
C’est pour les enfants

Dans une heure c’est la pause café
Mais j’prendrai une soupe
Ça fera quelque chose à raconter
Au sein du couple

Parfois je sens que mes jours sont comptés
Et qu’un boeing pourrait déraper
Parfois j’en veux aux fainéants, aux ratés
Qui ne pensent qu’à vivre
Au lieu de compter
Parfois je sens que mes jours sont comptés
Et qu’un boeing pourrait déraper
Parfois j’envie les fainéants les ratés
Qui pensent à vivre
Au lieu de compter

Dans 10 ans je serais heureux
Ou dans 20 ans…

Le Geste (Le fait est que)

Est-ce que j’ai précipité
les événements
en m’installant dans son canapé ?
Ou bien est-ce elle
en m’y rejoignant,
genoux collés serrés aux miens
Ses mains
à deux millimètres des miennes
Qui de nous deux
a franchi ces deux millimètres ?

Le fait est que le geste fût
Le fait est que, et qu’importe qui le fît

Il était là depuis le début,
évident,
attendant patiemment
son moment...
Logique, écrit,
demandé, annoncé…
Il était prédit
que le geste se ferait

Le fait est que le geste fût

Le fait est que, et qu’importe qui le fît

Ses mains
à deux millimètres des miennes
Qui de nous deux
a franchi ces deux millimètres ?
Logique, écrit,
demandé, annoncé…
Il était prédit
que le geste se ferait

Et le fait est que le geste fût
Le fait est que, et qu’importe qui le fît

Swiss Kriss - Louis Armstrong

Armstrong's laxative of preference in his younger days was Pluto Water, but when he discovered the herbal remedy Swiss Kriss, he became an enthusiastic convert,[96] extolling its virtues to anyone who would listen and passing out packets to everyone he encountered, including members of the British Royal Family.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Armstrong

If you have ever wondered what the reference was in 'Baby, It's Cold Outside'.. It's a laxative!
