lyrics

I’ve been waiting on the wrong side of the road for a long time
Hitchiking in vain for the ideal carriage and a good ride
I tried old fashion lorries, family sedans, the faster Ferraris,
(even) a drop-top Bentley !
I so often asked the driver to stop to drop me off at the next service ressort

Then I suddenly found
How to reach the speed of light
A rocket launched through the sky
That leaves, white, trails behind…

Away for a while, I soon realized I missed home
I search on the auto-pilot a programm to come back
But there wasn’t any !
I travelled so far, zizaged through the stars, I regained control as I…
Definitely crashed myself on milky way !

Yet I was so glad to have found
How to reach the speed of light
A rocket launched through the sky
That leaves, white, trails behind…

A rocket launched through the sky
That leaves, white, trails behind…

THE SEGMENTS Lyon, France

The sound of The Segments reflects the ecletism of each member’s musical culture, their common obsessions as their differences. It’s a mash up including power pop germs, glam rock, indie pop and whatever you’ll find in it !
Basically the band draws from the late 70’s power pop forgotten hits like Nerves, Plimsouls Real Kids, Phil Seymour
