LE TANGO DU VIAGRA

Le tour Eiffel s'est effondré
Mon p'tit oiseau à cessé de chanter
Tout bascule dans mon pantalon
Comment redresser la situation
Le Zucchini s'est ramolli
Mais j'ai enfin trouvé la solution

Les dames veulent venir dans mon lit
Maintenant que j'ai eu ma prescription

Le ciel est bleu (le ciel est bleu)
L'amour est bleu (l'amour est bleu)
La dame en bleu (la dame en bleu)
La pilule bleu

Toutankhamon s'est réveillé
Et l'âme de Jérémie vient me hanter
Si vous cherchez un étalon
Ou désirez un amant en béton
Nous monterons au 7e ciel
Tu atteindras l'extase dans mes bras
Nous culbuterons dans les motels
Et danserons le tango du viagra

Le ciel est bleu (le ciel est bleu)
L'amour est bleu (l'amour est bleu)
La dame en bleu (la dame en bleu)
La pilule bleu

Solo – musique

Le ciel est bleu (le ciel est bleu)
L'amour est bleu (l'amour est bleu)
La dame en bleu (la dame en bleu)
La pilule bleu

Allez chérie viens dans mes bras
Et dansons le tango du viagra!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Patrick Zabé's "Le tango du viagra" speak of a man's struggle to maintain his virility as he ages. The opening lines suggest a loss of confidence and prowess as the Eiffel Tower collapses and his love-making becomes less potent. The euphemisms and metaphors used in the song to describe the decline of his sexual ability are amusing and creative. For instance, the male member is referred to as a "zucchini" that has gotten soft, and the solution to this problem comes in the form of a blue pill.

The song celebrates the effects of Viagra, a drug that revolutionized treatment for erectile dysfunction in men. The lyrics suggest an excitement and liberation that comes with the newfound ability to please women sexually, even as they age. The blue sky, blue love, and blue pills are an indication of the euphoria and release that the drug provides. The song speaks of reaching heights of pleasure and ecstasy in the arms of a lover and the possibility of finding new love as a result of the newfound ability.

Overall, "Le Tango du Viagra" is a lighthearted and humorous take on the impact of Viagra on male sexuality. The lyrics are a celebration of the ability to enjoy sex regardless of age, and the song encourages one to seize the day and indulge in the pleasures that come with the blue pill.
