It's the story about, Mister Johnny Marple, He's quite good looking, but nothing happens, So one day he gets out, Mister Johnny Marple, He's quite hungry now, so he stole an apple. Then a policeman says, put him in jail, He's really scared now, Mister Johnny Marple, In front of the judge he says, I didn't know it was on sale, I promise you sire it won’t happen again. Now he's back home, Mister Johnny Marple, But he gets bored, and nothing happens, So one day he gets out, Mister Johnny Marple, He's quite angry now, so he stole a weapon. Then a policeman says, put him in jail, He’s really scared now, Mister Johnny Marple, In front of the judge he says, I didn't know it was on sale, I promise you sire it won’t happen again. And the judge says, you're going to jail, But he really doesn’t care, Mister Johnny Marple, He's locked in a room and nothing happens, But he gets bored, so he hangs himself... It’s so poor Johnny why? Poor, poor, Johnny Marple, He’s dead and gone and nothing happens.

Day is coming, press the start button and I’m climbing with you my dear friend, Roads are turning, but with you I’m sure it’s gonna end, oh my dear friend. I’m so glad we could go, to this wonderful place you should know. Darkness is coming, we’ve just arrived and now it’s time to drink with you my dear friend. Minds are turning, but with you I’m sure it’s gonna end, oh my dear friend. I’m so glad we could go, to this wonderful place new to you. Time after time, the wind blows you to the friend you’re glad to have. Time after time, the storm blows you to the friendship you love, to the friendship you love. Our trip is ending, it’s so hard but now I have to go with you my dead friend, Paris is coming, but with you I’m sure it will never end, oh my dear friend. I’m so glad we could go, to this wonderful place, I’m so glad we could go, to this wonderful place, That you know.

about

Johnny c’est le genre de gars qui fait déjà un peu parti de nous-mêmes, c’est la voix qui t’entraîne dans les bars les soirs où il faut pas, où tu t’es levé en te disant « faut que j’arrête » et où tu te lèveras le lendemain en te disant la même chose.

Il renverse ses shooters de rhum, insulte le monde, fume ses clopes à l’envers et pense lever une fille quand il lève son verre. Johnny c’est le genre de gars qui a l’alcool mauvais, l’empeste et te le fait renifler au bout du nez. Tu sais, celui qui finit souvent par terre et se relève à coup de lignes mal tassées.

Johnny tu vois très bien à quoi il ressemble maintenant, tu le sens et même s’il te répugne, tu le laisses venir à toi, il t’attire même presque, tu ne sais plus trop toi non plus.

Mais quitte à refaire le monde, autant ne pas le refaire tout seul et boire un dernier coup.


Terry & The Bums, c’est la rencontre de quatre Johnny bravant les conventions artistiques et esthétiques pour délivrer une musique épurée mais nécessaire.

Attention, Terry & The Bums n’est pas un groupe de psyché.
