Les coulisses
Revisite de la chanson de 1990 en mode plus fun pour cet adolescent qui s'adore, qui est certain de son charme irrésistible et se rend en boite en se pavanant dans les rues ....pour finalement se faire rejeter à l'entrée pour cause d'age et d'accoutrement inapproprié. Après une intro un peu enigmatique, l'arrangement progresse du pop à base de synthés pour progresser vers une atmosphère plus rock un peu dansant (avec guitares, piano, saxos) puis plus hard et explosif quand le gamin se fait offciellement rejeté
Paroles
Tonight, it's saturday's night, tonight is the biggest night
They'll all love at first sight
With my sun glasses, I'll be the king of the party
Everybody's looking at me
Wonderfully glad, clothed like a rock-star, jacket like James Dean
Soon, I'll catch Marylin, here comes the love-machine
Oh, I run the comb through my hair - Oh, dear mirror, tell me who is the best
Let me tell you a secret, darling
In my mind, my own mind, I'm perfect of my kind
Perfect of my kind
On my vespa, hearing a good beat, I speed along the street
I know there's a law against it
My radio roars the last rock-and-pop success
Good music nevertheless
Before going to Star Macumba, I drive on each road of town, cause in town
There's so many girls who will not see me if I don't go by them
Oh, it's hard to be a star -I'm so strong to support all these envious looks
Let me tell you a secret darling
In my mind, my own mind I'm perfect of my kind
Oh, my God, why am I so wonderful, so marvellous
Have you ever seen that I make so attract attention on girls- Thank you my God
I arrive at Star Macumba, hello, boys and girls, here comes the love-machine
I already hear their shrieks
They call loudly for me, between the rumble of the bassdrums
Be patient, dear pretty spinsters
Sure, they'll all go down on my knees, tremble husbands
Needless to clutch at your wife, I've already conquered their heart
Tremble husbands, here comes the love-machine
Tremble husbands, here comes the love-machine
At the entrance, the bigman says -"Hey you, wait a minute, haven't you see the poster"
Let me tell you a secret darling, a secret darling
In my mind, my own mind I'm perfect of my kind
Oh, my God, Man oh my God, I’m perfect of my kind
Oh my god why am I so wonderful, so marvellous
Oh, I've never seen that I make so attract attention on men
And he says :
"Correct dress is required and no admittance to the less of eighteen years old
