Casanova
Martin Deschamps Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

C’est lui le sex-symbole
Dans les bars, les casinos
Et les pitounes s’y collent
Comme sur une carte de bingo

Casanova Hoolàlà!

C’est un tombeur en série
Allegro ma nontropo
Et vous les plus jolies
Prenez donc un numéro

Casanova
Dis-moi pourquoi
Toutes les femmes tombent sur le dos
Quand tu danses le Calypso

Casanova Hoolàlà

Et quand il danse sur la piste
Comme des doigts sur un piano
Aucune ne lui résiste
Et l’amour fait des solos

Casanova
Dis-moi pourquoi




Toutes les femmes tombent sur le dos
Quand tu danses le Calypso

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Martin Deschamps's song Casanova depict a man who is considered a sex symbol, admired and desired by countless women who flock to him in bars and casinos. He is a serial seducer, and the sight of him dancing the Calypso is enough to make any woman weak in the knees. The lyrics liken his popularity to that of a bingo card, where women are drawn to him like numbers on a board. He is known as a Casanova, a term that has come to represent a man who is a seducer of women, a man who is skilled and persistent in his pursuit of women.


The lyrics also showcase the power of music in bringing people together, as Casanova's dancing causes women to fall under his spell. The notion of love as a solo, something that can be shared and experienced in a profound way through music, is a recurring theme throughout the song. What is interesting about the lyrics is that they could be seen as both a celebration of Casanova's talents and also as a warning to women to beware of his charms.
