Lady Marmalade
C. Aguilera Lil' Kim Mya & Pink Lyrics

Where's all my soul sistas?
Hey, where are all my soul sisters? Let’s hear you flow, my sisters.

Lemme hear ya'll flow, sistas
Let me hear you sisters' rap skills.

Hey sista, go sista, soul sista, flow sista
Hey sister, go ahead and show off your moves and your skills sis, keep it soulful.

He met Marmalade down in old Moulin Rouge
He met a woman named Marmalade in the old Moulin Rouge.

Struttin' her stuff on the street
She was walking confidently on the street and showing off her assets.

She said, 'Hello, hey Joe! You wanna give it a go?'
She said hello and offered him to join her.

Gitchie, gitchie, ya-ya, da-da (hey, hey, hey)
Sounds of playful and flirtatious approach taken to attract someone.

Gitchie, gitchie, ya-ya, here (here)
More of the same playfulness to continue the attraction.

Mocha Chocolata, ya-ya (ooh, yeah)
The lady is of mixed Afro Caribbean race and the guy just can’t get enough of it.

Creole Lady Marmalade (What-what, what-what) Ooh, oh
Marmalade is a Creole woman of black and French ancestry, and the guy just can’t resist her.

Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?
Would you like to sleep with me tonight (French)?

Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?
Would you like to sleep with me?

We come through with the money and the garter belts
We are coming through with the cash and sexy undergarments.

Let him know we 'bout that cake straight out the gate (uh)
We tell the man right away that we want his money.

We independent women, some mistake us for whores
We are strong and independent women, but many people assume that we are prostitutes

I'm sayin', 'Why spend mine when I can spend yours?'
I am asking, why should I spend my own money when I could use his?

Disagree? Well, that's you, and I'm sorry
If you don’t agree with me, that’s fine, but I won’t change my mind.

I'ma keep playing these cats out like Atari
I will keep manipulating men and getting what I want like a game of Atari.

Wear high heel shoes, get love from the dudes
When I wear high heel shoes, I get the love and attention of men.

Four badass chicks from the Moulin Rouge
We are four confident and sexy ladies from the Moulin Rouge.

Hey sistas, soul sistas, betta' get that dough sistas
Hey sisters, let's go earn some money with our incredible rap and dancing skills.

We drink wine with diamonds in the glass
We drink wine in glasses studded with diamonds to express our luxurious lifestyle.

By the case, the meaning of expensive taste
We buy our wine in bulk because our taste is exquisite and expensive.

If you wanna gitchie, gitchie, ya-ya
If you want to get playful, flirtatious, and sexy.

Mocha Chocolata (what)
Mixed Afro Caribbean, oh yeah.

Creole Lady Marmalade
Hot Creole lady named Marmalade.

Touch of her skin, feeling silky smooth
Her skin is so soft and smooth to the touch.

Color of café au lait, alright
Her skin color is similar to a particular shade of coffee with milk.

Made the savage beast inside roar until he cried More (more), more (more), more
She stimulated his most basic and primal instincts, making him feel overwhelmed with desire for her.

Now he's back home doin' 9 to 5 (9 to 5)
Now he has given up on a life of passion and is working a regular 9 to 5 job.

He's livin' the grey flannel life
His life is now dull and uninteresting, like the color of grey flannel.

But when he turns off to sleep, memories creep More (more), more (more), more
But when he goes to bed at night, he can’t stop thinking about her, and he craves more.

Christina (hey, oh) P!nk (Lady Marmalade) Lil' Kim (hey, hey, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh) Mya (oh, oh, ooh) Rockwilder, baby (baby) Moulin Rouge (oh) Misdemeanor here Creole Lady Marmalade Ooh, ooh, yes-ah
These are the artists and the movie this song is produced for.
