JUNGLE DE LA CHOPE
Eddy De Pretto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

L'abondance est riche
Ici les protagonistes nient
Ils s'en lisent à coups de de clique
Oh, le choix est danse
Il y a plus personne pour de subtiles romances
Ici la soif de l'autre défilent
Les âmes sensible deviennent tactiles
Mais même l'orgie est possible
Dans ce moderne et vaste asile
On se fait la cour comme des absents, sents, sents
Pensait au moindre sentiment, ment, ment
Qui se cachent sous de beau profiles
Dans cette sphère à la foudre infime
Et où tout compte précisément
Se connecte à mon intime
Et emporte au firmament
De l'érectile qui jubile

La sérénade est morte
Et je n'ai plus de feu

Je n'ai pour m'apaiser que des réseaux de jeu
Allez, ouvre-moi ta porte
Je ne suis qu'un animal vicieux
Avec ou sans papote perdu dans la jungle de la chope
La sérénade est morte
Et je n'ai plus de feu
Je n'ai pour m'apaiser que des réseaux de jeu
Allez, ouvre-moi ta porte
Ce soir je n'ai qu'un cœur à queue
Avec ou sans capote, perdu dans la jungle de la chope

La trouvaille est mince, mince, mince
Ici les internautes se lassent, lassent, lassent
Et s'ennuie à coup de like, like, like
Oh, les doigt se dépensent, pensent, pensent
Droite ou gauche, catalogue à crampes, crampes, crampes
Dans cette course au plus belle amant
Qui deviendra un énième plan
Et la raillera, ra, ra
Pour ces visages au conquête fade, fade, fade
D'où la recherche du standard, dard, dard
Te pique au milieu de nulle part, mare, mare
De ces conversation futiles
Et de ces connections dociles
Qui fait qu'ton ego fane
Même en battant des cils
Où les heures devient stériles
Sans ton sexe triomphal

La sérénade est morte
Et je n'ai plus de feu
Je n'ai pour m'apaiser que des réseaux de jeu
Allez, ouvre-moi ta porte
Je ne suis qu'un animal vicieux
Avec ou sans papote perdu dans la jungle de la chope
La sérénade est morte
Et je n'ai plus de feu
Je n'ai pour m'apaiser que des réseaux de jeu
Allez, ouvre-moi ta porte
Ce soir je n'ai qu'un cœur à queue
Avec ou sans capote perdu dans la jungle de la chope

Un peu de coup, de poutres aux yeux parsemés de vice et de rejet
Un peu de coup de pouces de plus pour essuyer l'échec de mes essais
Un peu de coup refus sans taxes pour oublier mes matches rejetés
Un peu de coup virtuelle sans actes du doigt, bien mélangé

La sérénade est morte
Et je n'ai plus de feu
Je n'ai pour m'apaiser que des réseaux de jeu
Allez, ouvre-moi ta porte
Je ne suis qu'un animal vicieux
Avec ou sans papote perdu dans la jungle de la chope
La sérénade est morte
Et je n'ai plus de feu
Je n'ai pour m'apaiser que des réseaux de jeu
Allez, ouvre-moi ta porte
Ce soir je n'ai qu'un cœur à queue




Avec ou sans capote perdu dans la jungle de la chope
Perdu dans la jungle de la chope

Overall Meaning

In "Jungle de la chope" by Eddy De Pretto, the singer laments the loss of romance and connection in modern society, where people substitute physical and emotional intimacy with constant online interactions and hook-ups. The first verse describes a society where abundance is abundant and sex is plentiful, but real connection seems to be lacking. People get together through clickbait lines, and even the orgy is often devoid of real feeling. The singer observes that even in this world, where everything is precisely calculated, things are still connected to his own intimate self and desires.


The second verse describes how people online have become bored and jaded, swiping through countless potential partners like an endless catalog of clothes, with no hope for real love or romance. The singer notes how even the most beautiful people become just another meaningless hookup in this world, where conversations are often vapid and connections are docile. The chorus repeats the theme of the loss of the serenade, a symbol of love and connection, and the replacement of intimacy with the cold, fleeting world of online interactions and sexual hedonism.


Overall, "Jungle de la chope" is a poignant commentary on the state of modern love and relationships. The title itself, "Jungle of the Chope," refers to a French slang term for a bar or pub, which is often portrayed as a place where people go to forget their troubles and find connection. However, as the song suggests, even bars and the social interactions they foster can no longer offer the true intimacy and connection that people crave.
