Ce Jeu by Yelle
Thanks, Yelle, for making every morning a dance party morning. Even when I am at my desk at work, “Ce Jeu” makes the formulas on my Excel spreadsheets tingle and bounce around. The best part of having “Ce Jeu” stuck in your head is you cannot explain or sing the song to anyone else since it’s in French. You most likely end up embarrassingly mumbling sounds that are nothing like the song.
Below is the English translation:
crazy and so obvious
i cant make any sense of
this exciting game
so good but so tiresome
you like to manipulate me
and i like to do it just as much
we’re 2 victims of this sweet
lovers’ game
i’d make the effort, i know you by heart
all i have to do is ignore you
so that you come back crying
i take care of you
you leave again
and thats how it goes
always the same thing
and i know it will happen every time
crazy and so obvious
i cant make any sense of
this exciting game
so good but so tiresome
you like to manipulate me
and i like to do it just as much
we’re 2 victims of this sweet
lovers’ game
passion, emotion
correcting the equations
i mix up the solution
but i always get the same sensation
its clear, i can no longer make
any sense of this exciting game
so good but so tiresome
