Tooker (Le Monde à Bicyclette)
words and music by Mike Ford
I took a bike ride yesterday and saw a funny world at play
I saw new bike lanes on a street, saw people and slowed down to greet
Green boxes next to blue and grey, posters for a car-free-day
Saw families without a trace of fear enjoying public space
Pedal power in full sway - I saw things in a different way
Le Monde à bicyclette Le monde à bicyclette
Tooker Gomberg never shied away from what had not been tried
With faithful friends there at his side he showed us we could turn the tide
On Adam's Mine and Kyoto, and not go the way of the Dodo
Burnin' passport declarations, buried car commemorations
Robin Hood through town he'd glide, inviting us along to ride
Le Monde à bicyclette Le monde à bicyclette
When the King of Furniture decreed his actions immature
Tooker took aim at his crown and threw the peple's gauntlet down
Which some folks called buffoonery - how accurate they proved to be
For like the clowns of vielle Paris his stock in trade was honesty
Sparking fires mirthfully to melt the ice of apathy
Le Monde à bicyclette Le monde à bicyclette
Sometimes statistics only bore 'em, so he perforated dull decorum
Energized the public forum - what else can one do but adore him
Ask yourself and a make a list and for a spell unclench your fist
For laughter is an activist, look up now see through the mist
Conviction like a lightning flash, dispensed with humour and panache
Le Monde à bicyclette Le monde à bicyclette
I only saw him a couple a' times in person where the tower chimes
Raging at the climate crimes with horns a honkin', words in rhyme
Or juggling by a tent for peace in frozen winter without cease
We wish for him eternal laughter, peace of mind in the hereafter
Inspirin' him as he does we and may we all forever see
Le Monde à bicyclette Le monde à bicyclette
Tooker (Le Monde à Bicyclette) is a song written and

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une
Politique éditoriale
, qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.
This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an
Editorial Policy
, which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
