Blast from yer past: "Ça plane pour moi, I am the King of the divan"

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

Ça Plane Pour Moi by Roger Jouret, A.K.A. Plastic Bertrand, 1977)

(Yam! Bam!)
(Mon chat "Splash")
Gît sur mon lit
A bouffé sa langue
En buvant (tronc) mon whisky
Quant à moi
Peu dormi, vidé, brimé
J'ai dû dormir dans la gouttière
Où j'ai eu un flash
Hou! Hou! Hou! Hou!
En quatre couleurs

Allez hop!
Un matin
Une (louloute) est venue chez-moi
Poupée de Cellophane
Cheveux chinois
Un sparadrap
Une gueule de bois
A bu ma bière
Dans un grand verre
En caoutchouc
Hou! Hou! Hou! Hou!
Comme un indien dans son igloo

Allez hop! La nana
Quel panard!
Quelle vibration!
De s'envoyer
Sur le paillasson
Limée, ruinée, vidée, comblée
"You are the King of the divan!"
Qu'elle me dit en passant
Hou! Hou! Hou! Hou!
I am the King of the divan

Ça plane pour moi
Ça plane pour moi
Ça plane pour moi moi moi moi moi
Ça plane pour moi

4. I have the album, its called "An Un"

Oh yes, love that french punk. Of course it came before the Damned, and before Elton Motello, the version that was sorta a club hit.

7. Nothing to do with getting high I guess.

Man that takes me back I was only about 5 when this came out.
I didn't understand the meaning of the verb planer (to glide, or rather to trip) until much later when on one of these voyage.
Which leads of course to voyage voyage http://desireless.lyrics-songs.com/lyrics/10518/
