Eurovision 1993 Switzerland:
Annie Cotton - "Moi, Tout Simplement"
Moi, tout simplement
Vous, Messieurs, vendeurs de vent
Vous, les montreurs de chiens savants
Magiciens, charmeurs de serpents
Poudre aux yeux pour les enfants
Au grand bal des rêves truqués
La où vos tréteaux sont plantés
Les guitares ont beau jouer
Je ne viendrai pas danser
Pas question de brûler mes ailes
Pas question de suivre vos pas
Je n'ai pas le temps
Et si demain la chance m'appelle
Avant tout, je veux être moi
Moi, tout simplement
Vous, Messieurs, faiseurs d'argent
Vous, les chercheurs de faux talents
Marionnettes à faire semblant
Disques d'or et chèques en blanc
Au palais des mondanités
Limousines et publicités
Tous vos flash ont beau crépiter
Je n'irai pas m'afficher
Pas question de brûler mes ailes
Pas question de suivre vos pas
Je n'ai pas le temps
Et si demain la chance m'appelle
Avant tout, je veux être moi
Moi, tout simplement
Pas question de brûler mes ailes
Pas question de suivre vos pas
Je n'ai pas le temps
N'ai pas le temps
Et si demain la chance m'appelle
Avant tout, je veux être moi
Moi, tout simplement
Tout simplement
Et si demain la chance m'appelle
Avаnt tout, je veux être moi
Moi, tout ѕimplement
Quite simply myself
You, gentlemen, wind sellers
You, trainers of performing dogs
Magicians, snake charmers
Dust in the eyes for children
On the great ball of fake dreams
Where the stage is erected
The guitars play in vain
I won't come dancing
Out of question to burn my wings
Out of question to follow your steps
I don't have time
And if tomorrow luck is with me
First of all, I want to be myself
Quite simply myself
You, gentlemen, money makers
You, the false-talent seekers
Puppets in appearance
Golden records and blank cheques
In the palace of vanities
Limousins and publicity
All your flashlights crackle in vain
I won't come prancing
Out of question to burn my wings
Out of question to follow your steps
I don't have time
And if tomorrow luck is with me
First of all, I want to be myself
Quite simply myself
Out of question to burn my wings
Out of question to follow your steps
I don't have time
Don't have time
And if tomorrow luck is with me
First of all, I want to be myself
Quite simply myself
Quite simply
And if tomorrow luck is with me
Before all, I wаnt to be myself
Quite simply myѕelf
