“It is striking to see on the first hand how this universe is in a vacuum,
with its codes, its rules, its personalities, its uses,
and on the other hand how nobody gives a damn about what is happening in Brussels!
There is a real disconnection.
And what dive into this disconnection are the lobbies.
Brussels Bubble Datalove #3
It's Place du Luxembourg In front of the parliament
Seeing each other every day That quite naturally
We share a drink or two And a few feelings
Then without seeming to We make amendments!
From beer to beer From bar to bar
Wanabee Members of the Parliament Lobbies and voluptuousness
From beer to beer From bar to bar
One never feels alone In the Brussels Bubble
By maintaining All its connections
The bubble gets soaped up By some pressure groups
Tonight is open bar At the tobacco industry
The "grande blonde" (cigarette / woman) comes for free And some don't hesitate
From beer to beer From bar to bar
Wanabee Members of the Parliament Lobbies and voluptuousness
From beer to beer From bar to bar
One never feels alone In the Brussels Bubble
There are the fonctionnaires There are their assistants
And there are the mercenaries From such-and-such industry group
I buy you a Chimay Bleue And you tell me a bit
A luxurious meal And I can explain all!
From beer to beer From bar to bar
Wanabee Members of the Parliament Lobbies and voluptuousness
From beer to beer From bar to bar
One never feels alone In the Brussels Bubble
Along the rue de la Loi It's a miniature world
People who work here All have their front window
Federation thingy Of cabinet thingummy
Which blows on the bubble To affect its path
From beer to beer From bar to bar
Wanabee Members of the Parliament Lobbies and voluptuousness
From beer to beer From bar to bar
One never feels alone In the Brussels Bubble
In front of the Berlaymont We meet the ballet
Of little delegations Of bundled up technocrats
The Brussels' universe Is a brains brewery
Which lives by itself In a parrallel world
From beer to beer From bar to bar
Wanabee Members of the Parliament Lobbies and voluptuousness
From beer to beer From bar to bar
One never feels alone In the Brussels Bubble
