Lady Marmalade
Lords of Acid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Strutting her stuff on the street.
She say, "Hello, hey Joe, you wanna give it a go?"
Mmm-mmm.
Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da.
Gitchi gitchi ya ya here.
Mocha chocalata ya ya.
Voulez vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?
Voulez vous coucher avec moi?
Mmm. Mmm. Whoa! Mmm.
Feel her skin, feeling silky smooth,
Color of cafe au lait.
Made the savage beast inside
Roar until he cried,
"More.. more.. more!"
Now, he's at home doing 9 to 5,
Living his gray flannel life.
Oh, but when he turns off to sleep,
Old memories keep, "More.. more.. more!"
Voulez vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?
Voulez vous coucher avec moi?
Voulez vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?
Voulez vous coucher avec moi?
Creole Lady Marmalade!
Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da.
Gitchi gitchi ya ya here.
Mocha chocalata ya ya.
Creole Lady Marmalade.
Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da.
Gitchi gitchi ya ya here.
Mocha chocalata ya ya.
Creole Lady Marmalade.
Voulez vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?
Voulez vous coucher avec moi?
Voulez vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?
Voulez vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?
Voulez vous coucher avec moi?
Voulez vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?
Voulez vous coucher avec moi?
The lyrics of "Lady Marmalade" by Lords of Acid tell the story of a man named Joe who met a woman named Marmalade in New Orleans. Marmalade is described as strutting her stuff on the streets, and Joe is immediately captivated by her. When Marmalade asks Joe if he wants to give it a go, he is a willing participant in her advances. The chorus of the song repeats the phrases "Gitchi gitchi ya ya da da" and "Mocha chocalata ya ya," which are meant to evoke the thrill and allure of the moment.
The second verse of the song describes how Joe is consumed by the memory of his encounter with Marmalade. He can feel her silky smooth skin and recalls the color of café au lait. The memory of Marmalade arouses a beast inside of him that makes him hunger for more. However, in his daily life, Joe is stuck in a mundane existence that is devoid of excitement. But even as he goes about his routine, the memories of Marmalade and their encounter continue to haunt him.
The lyrics of "Lady Marmalade" are provocative and suggestive, with the chorus featuring the French phrase "Voulez vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?" which translates to "Do you want to sleep with me tonight?" The lyrics of the song are a celebration of sexual desire and the thrill of sensual pleasure.
