In Lyons, France, there is a school That breaks the basic golden rule That when you learn about the beat You have to learn it on the street The DJ school they have in France Attracts the kids who want to dance And puts them in a narrow seat That hobbles natural Clubfeet Kids sit in rows turntabling Beat matching and beat juggling The needle drops, the teacher frowns Does methadrone get passed around? The students laugh The room breaks down The teacher screams No Sashas here And no Judge Jules No Paradise Garage you fools Until with every bass refrain Back-spinning, mixing, Fries their brains Vous m’dégoûtéz The teacher grieves They can’t scratch merde The teacher leaves The class is over Scratching stops The party starts The music pops Reverb Delay An Equalizer A Sub Harmonic Synthesizer The drum machine The sampling moves The kids start hitting Every groove Their feet unbound They take the lead School is out The beat is freed The phonograph A French invention Has now succumbed To French convention Go out, revolt, and hit the streets Forget the school; create the beats DJ School’s a joke, my son Music is for having fun. DJ School’s a joke, my lass Songs should knock you on your ass. Ecoutez l’ambassadeur , écoutez l ‘ambassadeur.... Ecoutez l’ambassadeur vous racontez l’histoire d’une arnaque On l’appellera ici ou là académisme ou formalisme Berné par des promesses de gloire, la nouvelle star à la matraque Petit frère s’inscrit à l’école de DJ il est plein d’optimisme Il vas taxer son mix et ses influences à une centaine d’autres Péta scratchs et passe-passes sans déconstruction à nos apôtres Il est clair que l’on est bien loin de l’école du micro d’argent jamais le formalisme ne s’abstient de dévorer spontanéité et talent J’en ai connu qui se sont saigner pour pouvoir exercer leur passion Rapper sur des mixtapes à deux balles juste pour pouvoir cracher des phases en fusion Avec trois notions de Beat-box on faisait rythmer le pavé Avec des lyrics affûtées on déclenchait les hostilités Frères et sœur ici gît un DJ minable Il a fait l’école de Lyon et cette issue lui fut fatale Il avait un talent presque improbable Mais sa formation l’a réduit à l’état de végétal L’ami DJ ça c’est sur retournera s’exercer sur du Guetta C’est peut être mieux comme ça, on épargne au moins le Pera
