Laisse Tomber Les Filles (Drop the Girls)

If you think yesterday's "Dani California" got stuck in your head, you haven't seen anything.

I once played this song over 600 times in a row. I'm absolutely shocked Quentin Tarantino hasn't put it in a movie yet.

As I still cannot embed music I offer the video, which is unintentionally hilarious. It's a modern song, but I can't tell if she looks retro on purpose or not. The song is about a manwhore (a concept the video has a funny way of getting across.



Here are the lyrics if you want to follow along (including a Babelfish translation (which means it sucks, but best I can do unless someone speaks French and wants to help me out)

Laisse tomber les filles

Laisse tomber les filles
Un jour c'est toi qu'on laissera
Laisse tomber les filles
Laisse tomber les filles
Un jour c'est toi qui pleureras
Oui j'ai pleuré mais ce jour-là
Non je ne pleurerai pas
Non je ne pleurerai pas
Je dirai c'est bien fait pour toi
Je dirai ça t'apprendra
Je dirai ça t'apprendra
Laisse tomber les filles
Laisse tomber les filles
Ça te jouera un mauvais tour
Laisse tomber les filles
Laisse tomber les filles
Tu le paieras un de ces jours
On ne joue pas impunément
Avec un coeur innocent
Avec un coeur innocent
Tu verras ce que je ressens
Avant qu'il ne soit longtemps
Avant qu'il ne soit longtemps

La chance abandonne
Celui qui ne sait
Que laisser les coeurs blessés
Tu n'auras personne
Pour te consoler
Tu ne l'auras pas volé

Laisse tomber les filles
Laisse tomber les filles
Un jour c'est toi qu'on laissera
Laisse tomber les filles
Laisse tomber les filles
Un jour c'est toi qui pleureras
Non pour te plaindre il n'y aura
Personne d'autre que toi
Personne d'autre que toi
Alors tu te rappelleras
Tout ce que je te dis là
Tout ce que je te dis là

Translation:

Drop the girls

Drop the girls, one day it's you who will leave, drop the girls.
Drop the girls, one day it's you which will cry.
Yes I cried but this day, no I will not cry, no I will not cry.

I will say it's well made for you, I will say that will learn to you,
I will say that will learn to you, drop the girls.

Drop the girls that will play you a nasty trick, drop the girls,
drop the girls, you will pay for it one of these days.

One does not play with impunity, with an innocent heart,
with an innocent heart, you will see what I feel.

Before it is not a long time, before it is not a long time,
the chance gives up, that which does not know,
that to leave the wounded hearts,
you will not have anybody to comfort you,
you will not have stolen it.

Drop the girls.

Drop the girls, one day it is you whom one will leave, drop the girls.
Drop the girls, one day it is you which will cry.

Not to feel sorry for you, there will not be nobody of other that you,
nobody of other that you, then you will remember,
all that I say to you there, all that I say to you there
