Rise before driving
Citroën BX, take your time
The neighbors think you're broken
We know you're only waking up
Turn the key, then count the clicks
Pressure first, then morning starts
Green LHM upon my hands
Some perfumes stay forever
Gandini folded paper into steel
Satellite pods still make sense to me
Touch the height lever just because
Lowest at the café, highest in the snow
Tick, click
The regulator tells the truth
Tick too fast
Accumulator wants a weekend
Citroën BX
Float across the broken road
Speed bumps disappear
Everyone asks if it's magic
No
It's hydraulic
Rear arm bearings start to sing
Octopus hoses test your faith
Doseur valve feels different every day
Yet the brake pedal always speaks French
Plastic tailgate, plastic bonnet
Rust picked the wrong car today
Bleeding brakes is not a chore
It's just another Saturday
GTi dreams
TZS memories
Break carries half the furniture
Still rides better than yesterday
Wait
She's rising
Now we're ready
Now it's a Citroën
Rise before driving
If you know the smell of LHM
If you judge the spheres by the regulator click
If you smile when the car kneels overnight
You're already family
Citroën BX
Nothing modern ever taught me patience
Nothing else ever floated quite like you
See you after the pressure builds

Citroën BX, Rise Before Driving
MASAQUI
Citroën BX, Rise Before Driving is a city pop tribute filled with details that only true BX owners will recognize. From waiting for the suspension to rise after startup, to the unmistakable scent of green LHM and the reassuring click of the hydraulic regulator, every moment celebrates the wonderfully unconventional character of the Citroën BX. Warm grooves and a husky female vocal capture the joy of living with one of France's most distinctive cars.
