Les Avions Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Be pop !
Be pop !
Be pop !
Madame, madame la lune,
Dites-moi, pourquoi je suis seul,
Seul sur ce trottoir vide,
Il faudrait trouver la vraie solution.
(Refrain:)
Be pop ! Sois forte pour toujours,
En lettres capitales.
Be pop ! Sois forte pour toujours,
La tête dans les étoiles.
Le ciel peut bien attendre
Descendons l'escalier de verre,
Vers ce pays étrange,
Qui nous met la tête à l'envers.
Tourne, tourne, suivons la révolution.
(Au refrain)
Madame, madame la lune,
Va falloir bientôt nous quitter.
Dans ma belle auto bleue,
Je démarre pour l'éternité.
Je vous aime, je n'ai plus de temps à perdre
(Au refrain)
Be pop ! Sois forte pour mourir???
Be pop ! Sois forte pour séduire.
Attends une minute!
Be pop ! Sois forte pour toujours.
Be pop ! Sois forte dans l'amour.
The song "Be Pop" by Les Avions is a classic new wave song that features a fast-paced and upbeat melody. The catchy repeated chant of "Be Pop!" creates a sense of urgency and excitement. The song seems to focus on the theme of being alone and searching for a solution to that loneliness. The lyrics address the moon, asking why the singer is alone on an empty sidewalk, and saying that they need to find a true solution. The refrain of the song encourages the listener to be strong and resilient, always with their head in the stars. The second verse references a strange country that turns everything upside down and encourages revolution. The song ends with the singer getting into their blue car and driving away, telling the moon that they love it and don't have any time to waste.
Overall, the song seems to be about embracing a sense of individuality and rebellion against traditional societal norms. The lyrics encourage the listener to be strong, both in life and love, and not to be afraid of being different. The repetition of the chant "Be Pop!" reinforces this message of standing out and being unique. Musically, the song is arguably ahead of its time for its energetic and danceable sound that was popularized in the 1980s.
