Spleen en bandoulière
La vie et moi, on s’entend pas, son allure tranquille me tourmente
J’veux qu’elle déborde, dégueule de joie, que sous l’poids des fous rires, elle gronde
La vie en moi ça circule pas, elle m’aguiche d’une drôle de manière
Elle donne par-ci reprend par là, j’ai plus confiance, j’ai besoin d’air!
Alors butée et volontaire, je retourne tout pour m’rassurer
Mais j’porte le spleen en bandoulière et ça m’gêne drôlement pour danser.
[Marie et Cécile Hanin]

A fear of commitment
We seem to suffer a fear of commitment these days… even signing up for a term contract to the gym or a phone company we need to hear the ways we can get out of it early to reassure us before we enter.
We enter relationships and start to think about the reasons it will end before it’s even started.
We enter relationships we know will never work out, simply because they are enjoyable.
It seems we’re on the look out for the next best thing,
We think marrying young is stupid, yet we look at older singles and think they’ll die alone.
We know what we want, until it’s presented to us and then we change our minds.
We’ve been given all these expectations of what love should be like and when it’s different we give up.
We have too many options, too many expectations, too much history, too little perception about what is really valuable.
We’re screwed up.
What is going to happen to our children?

One day she will leave, because she won’t have the damn sense of humour you wish she had.
