lyrics

I want to talk to all the people out there
Who still looking for the meaning of their life
I want to say to them : Hold on !
Make everyday different than every yesterday
I want to tell you the story of an ordinary man
Who could break his chains to discover his own way
but like everybody he suffers each day
His name is John Doe so listen

Like every morning
his smart-phone wakes him up
He would like to do nothing
But he has to get up
One cup of coffee
That's enough to be late
He has to hurry
Thats why he can't finish is plate
Shower ,tooth brush, fragrance, shaving
all's done in a row
The days just beginning
and he's no much time left to go
No suit up ! It's the dress code
Tie and jacket imposed
Get your keys and lock the door
And please, don't try to think no more

Now that he's lost, lost in the town
He's walking down the street
Anoyding the croud, he nearly falls down
And he cannot stand it
People are stressed, all's running fast
In a stifling atmosphere
And more ordeal, he hopes the last
And the subway lights appear

Here at my job, arrived just at seven o'clock
I talk to the big boss
I've come across
He ask me the file that I've unlukily lost
I get a rocket from this stupid guy in jacket
reciting me his sonnet about investements and profits
then my client call me pissing me off like nobody
you should do that
you do not right
you're not so bright
now please be quite
I'm realy loosing my time
with the fools powerful and never mind
I've finaly finished my day
And my family is so far away

His name Is John Doe
unhappy as you know
It could be you, It could be me
he earns a living like everybody
Slogging away every night and every day
at his fucking job not time to slob and so much people shout at his gob

No suit up ! It's the dress code
