Med anledning av att det idag är Europa-premiär för den senaste filmen om Tintin 
publicerar vinifierat.se en låt som vid det här laget är gott och väl 15 år gammal och som bland annat fanns, och rimligtvis fortfarande finns, med i novellsamlingen ”Ditt och mitt livs novell”.
The awake of Tintin
A/ Em
Tintin went to the New World
A/ Em
to find adventure
A/ Em
but he found life itself
A/ Em
and it was pitiful and (quite) scary
Bm/Bm-/Bm Em Bm/Bm-/Bm Em
A/Em…
No more escaping for Tintin/ stucked in real life/ No more playing for Tintin/ stucked in pity and fear
Bm /Bm-/Bm Em Bm/Bm-/Bm Em
A/Em…
Puzzled by his instincts/ Tintin searched for love/ Amazed that the woman (he found)/ was his mother
Bm/Bm-/Bm Em Bm/Bm-/Bm Em
A/Em…
Weighed by awareness
He wanted peace and justice
Dm/C/Am//
To long stunted himself/ by keeping the trigger/ of his cells locked/ To long blinded/ by not wanting to see
A/Em…
Tintin propelled into motion/ what a beautiful sight/ If he can live through the first day/ what miracles can’t he do?
Bm/Bm-/Bm Em Bm/Bm-/Bm Em
A/Em…
Listen to Mother Earth:/ Go then, life’s wonderful/ child, take on to your vision,/ and leave all else beside
Bm/Bm-/Bm Em Bm/Bm-/Bm Em
A/Em…
Even if your heart attracts/ the general misery/ of the world:
Dm/ C/ Am//
Don’t cry/because/ that´s good/ Don’t cry/ just do something about it/ Don’t wait for it to come/ do something about it
Latin chorus: Dm/ C/ A#/ A
Avslutningsvis ett lättburet vin för Tintins äventyr.
