Cornu Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Comme c'est bon,
Quand petit à petit
Tu sors de ma tête.

Youpi, Yeah...

Comme c'est gai,
Quand même à petit pas
Je m'éloigne de toi.

Youpi, Youpi, Yeah...
Youpi, Youpi, Yeah...

Comme c'est joyeux,
On ne se verra plus
Jamais

Youpi, Yeah...

Comme c'est joli,
Tes yeux qui pleurent
De jalousie.

Youpi, Youpi, Yeah...
Youpi, Youpi, Yeah...

Comme c'est comme c'est

Tes yeux qui pleurent
Tes yeux qui pleurent
Tes yeux qui pleurent

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Cornu's song "Youpi" convey a feeling of relief and happiness as the singer gradually forgets their past love. The lines "Comme c'est bon, / Quand petit à petit / Tu sors de ma tête" ("How good it feels, / When little by little / You leave my mind") express the joy of being able to move on from someone who was once stuck in their thoughts. The repetition of "Youpi, Yeah" and "Youpi, Youpi, Yeah" adds to the playful and carefree tone of the song, reflecting the sense of release and newfound freedom from the previous relationship.


As the song progresses, the lyrics become more celebratory: "Comme c'est joyeux, / On ne se verra plus / Jamais" ("How joyful it is, / We'll never see each other / Again"). The singer revels in the knowledge that they will never have to face their past lover again, and the line "Comme c'est joli, / Tes yeux qui pleurent / De jalousie" ("How beautiful it is, / Your eyes crying / With jealousy") adds a touch of satisfaction that the previous partner is feeling the pain of the breakup as well. The repetition of "Comme c'est comme c'est" ("How it is how it is") further emphasizes the emotions of the singer and their sense of letting go.


Overall, "Youpi" is a lighthearted and cheerful song about the end of a relationship and the happiness found in moving forward with life.
