LE SON DU JOUR : Supertramp, « Breakfast in America »

Lorsqu'il sort en 1979, le titre "Breakfast in America", tiré de l'album du même nom (le sixième du groupe), connaît un succès immédiat. Aujourd'hui, la paternité du morceau, crédité aux noms de Rick Davies et Roger Hodgson, co-fondateurs de Supertramp, est revendiquée par ce dernier.

"Take a look at my girlfriend She's the only one I got Not much of a girlfriend Never seem to get a lot Take a jumbo across the water Like to see America See the girls in California I'm hoping it's going to come true But there's not a lot I can do Could we have kippers for breakfast Mummy dear, Mummy dear They got to have 'em in Texas Cos everyone's a millionaire I'm a winner, I'm a sinner Do you want my autograph I'm a loser, what a joker I'm playing my jokes upon you While there's nothing better to do Don't you look at my girlfriend She's the only one I got Not much of a girlfriend Never seem to get a lot Take a jumbo cross the water Like to see America See the girls in California I'm hoping it's going to come true But there's not a lot I can do".
