M83 - Raconte-Moi Une Histoire

Artist: "M83"
Album "Hurry Up, We're Dreaming" 2011
Song: "Raconte-Moi Une Histoire"

Lyrics:

I heard about this frog. It's a very tiny
frog. But it's also very special. You can
only find it in the jungle. So far away
from here. But if you find it, and if you
touch it, your world can change forever.
If you touch its skin. You can feel your
body changing. And your vision also.
Blue becomes red and red becomes
blue. And your mommy suddenly
becomes your daddy. And everything
looks like a giant cupcake. And you
keep laughing and laughing and
laughing. Nothing is ever quite the
same, really. And after you finished
laughing. It's time to turn into a frog
yourself. It's very funny to be a frog.
You can dive into the water and cross
the rivers. And the oceans. And you
can jump all the time and everywhere.
Do you wanna play with me? We
could be a whole group od friends. A
whole group of frogs. Jumping into the
streets. Jumping into the planet.
Climbing the buildings. Swimming in the
lakes and in the bathtubes. We would
be hundreds, thousands, millions! The
biggest group of friends the world has
ever seen.
Jumping and laughing forever. It would
be great, right?

M83 keeps putting out innovative music and changing the scene, somehow we should spread the word of their music. This whole album is great and this song makes it that much better.
