Drive Pissed

1 2 3 4
During vacations
screw that Indian jerk1.
To drive across the whole of France,
no two ways to make it through:
 
Drive pissed...
....
 
So many plane trees2
driving like crazies,
cutting you up,
you'd better watch out
 
Drive pissed...
....
 
A couple glasses is alright
to write a song
but to do some real damage
you'd easily need a couple bottles of plonk3
 
Drive pissed...
...
 

• 1. 'Bison futé' (Crafty Bison) is a cartoonish Indian chief, mascot of the French traffic control center, notably providing advices to alleviate traffic jams during summer vacations
• 2. many French roads are lined with plane trees. 'se prendre un platane' ('Smashing against a plane tree') is a typical cause of violent death at the wheel
• 3. from the famous anti-alcoholic motto of the 80's: 'deux verres ça va, trois verres, bonjour les dégâts' ('two glasses are alright, three glasses will do some real damage')

Oh, These Chicks

I went out with Hélène.
We sat together in a café.
When I told her I loved her
she said she loved me too.
The next day I call her
she says it's all over.
 
Oh, these chicks, oh, these chicks
they drive me plain nuts
Oh, these chicks, oh, these chicks
I just like them too much
 
I went out with Monique
We went to the movies
and at the most tragic moment
she asked me to kiss her
and since I'm a pragmatic guy
I was happy to oblige.
 
Oh, these chicks, oh, these chicks
they drive me plain nuts
Oh, these chicks, oh, these chicks
I just like them too much

I went out with Marcel
[he went out with Marcel]
 
We met in the subway
He lives right next to Sarcelles1
so I walked him home.
When we arrived at his council flat
he said, 'I don't like faggots'.
 
Oh, these chicks, oh, these chicks
they drive me plain nuts
Oh, these chicks, oh, these chicks
I just like them too much
 
I went out with Karine
She didn't ask anything from me
She's so sweet, she's so delicate,
I love her pretty eyes full of wonder.
I'll love Karine all my life
nothing will prevent me from doing so.
 
Ah, that chick, ah, that chick,
she drove me plain nuts
Ah, that chick, ah, that chick,
I just love her too much.
