    As the pleasure is goldmine, the picture that adorns the cover of the brand new EP could have been taken in Morocco in 1967. But it didn't happen that way. The legendary French photographer Renaud Monfourny snapped it on one glorious spring day of the roaring 2020s, in the midday sun, somewhere in the heart of Paris (Saint Paul!). Then Pascal Blua (the renowned graphic designer who's been working with Rocabois for 4 years now) imagined this James Bond-like cover art. Three new songs, one shaman-like chant, a brilliant recreation by Le SuperHomard AND the printed lyrics: so many good reasons to surrender to The Pleasure Is Goldmine EP on CD!

lyrics

I'd like to make my exit with panache

Bright underpants to be shown on the coroner's table 

Please

Everybody's got something to hide

I've been under treatment

But now it's done 
I'm healed

Be sure that I'll come over

What's your take on

This outrageous outfit I wore?

Please Goddess let me lie on the floor

To master an appearance at the awards 

"The Bird, The Fly & The Helicopter" 

Our time is up, the party's over

Stick to your guns
The award goes to Virginia Woodstone-Grey 

For the most impressive body of work that anyone who's worked with her 
Might have noticed yeah, haven’t you yeah?

I'd like to make my exit with panache

Please find my passport in the pocket of my Italian jacket 

Please

I'm sitting singing songs for everyone

I've been under treatment 

But now I'm good 
I'm healed 

Be sure that I'll come over 

What's your take on 
"I wonder if you can picture more"? 

Those funny little things on the shore

Open your eyes 

Mother

Open your heart to me

I don't care if the cupboard's bare

I don't mind if your beloved dog is sick

I don't give a damn about your brand new car

Is it grey? Is it white? Is it black? Is it shiny?

I sing this song in English cause I like it

I'll sing in Italian and I'm sure you will love it

Or even in German but you and I won't get it

I'd rather sing in French

Hoping you'd understand

What I really meant

Do I really need to scream?


Open your eyes 
Mother

Open your heart to me

Only a pocketful of minutes or years ahead of us
