Youpidou [English translation]

Yippee woopsie1

I just quit school

Yippie woopsie

And no Interpol

Yippe woopsie

I deserted my man,

a gangster,

a true Al Capone.

Yippie woopsie

It's him they call

(Yippie woopsie)

an all-seeing

grown-up...

Now I'm just lying to myself there

Yippie woopsie

and he doesn't care

It's a bad day for your loving words

One word too many is what is needed

I'm gonna take a stroll nearby...

My spirits are hitting an all-time zero2

It's a bad day for your loving words3

One word too many is what is needed

I'm gonna meditate nearby...

Leave everything, glue the pieces together4

Yippie woopsie

I'm on the road

Yippie woopsie

Get away at all cost

(yippie woopsie)

from his grumpy face

(yippie woopsie)

I'm off for a stroll

Yippie woopsie

It's in my sport car

(yippie woopsie)

that I empty my head5.

Let's meet

at a solar life,

(some noise6)

and no more hard times

1. "youpi" plus some random noise2. trying to say "j'ai le moral à zéro" in a novel way, I suppose3. "t'es mots d'amour" would mean "you are (nothing but) loving words", I suppose it's just a delirious transcription4. "recoller les morceaux" would mean "patch things up". "coller les morceaux" does not mean anything but "glue the pieces together"5. and on air that you empty ours...6. part of a list of irregular nouns that take an 'x' in plural instead of the usual 's' (pou, genou, caillou, hibou, chou, joujou, bijou)
