Mo porte un toast à Simon qui a réussi à faire s'engager le conseil d'administration de SPRQ Point dans la lutte contre le racisme au quotidien. 

Simon:
Some people talk about ya like they know all about ya
When you get down they doubt ya
And when you tip it on the scene, yeah they talkin' bout it
Cause they can't tip on the scene
They just talk about it, t-t-t-talk bout it

When you get elevated
They love it or they hate it
You dance up on them haters
Keep getting funky on the scene
While they jumpin' round ya
They trying to take all of your dreams
But you can't allow it

Mo et tous :
Cause baby whether you're high or low
Whether you're high or low
You gotta tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it)
T-t-t-tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it)
Baby, baby, whether you're high or low (high or low)
Whether you're high or low (high or low)
You got to tip on the tightrope (tip, tip on it)
Now let me see you do the tightrope (tip, tip on it)

Tatiana:
And I'm still tippin' on it
See I'm not walkin' on it
Or tryin to run around it
This ain't no acrobatics
You either follow or you lead

Simon:
Yeah, I’m talkin' bout ya
Keep on blaming the machine, yeah
I'm talkin' bout it

Mo et tous :
Then baby whether I'm high or low
Baby whether you're high or low (high or low)
You gotta tip on the tightrope (tightrope)
Yeah, tip on the tightrope (tightrope)
Baby, baby whether you're high or low (ooh)
Baby whether you're high or low (high or low)
You gotta tip on the tightrope
Baby let me see you tight rope

Mo:
Oh, you can’t get too high

Tous:
We can’t get too high

Tatiana:
I said you can’t get too low

Tous:
We can’t get too low

Simon:
‘Cause you get too high

Tous:
You can’t get too high

Simon:
No, you’ll surely be low

Tous:
No you’ll surely be low
One, two, three, ho
