Tangiers Boogie (No. 9) dancehall or trance music

Allons a faire le parté,
allons a faire-la well,
& if you don't come ovah,
then you can go to hell!


Vive la grrrl, viveh la gehl,
vive la charmed-elle,o la belle!
vive la ma chère enfante,
vive la you know so well!

Saaaahhhhvouahhhhir-faire! Youuuuuuuuuu can tell!
Liiiiiiiiiiiiive it large, mahhhhhhhd'moiselle! (Whoooot!)

If you can parler francais,
if you can speaka French,
then you can come & parté,
Your thirst, I think, you'llquench.

If you can danse the tango,
then you are on our list;
If you can track by sniffing,
then you are on that piste.

Olé!

Saaaahhhhvouahhhhir-faire! Youuuuuuuuuu can tell!
Liiiiiiiiiiiiive it large, mahhhhhhhd'moiselle!

(Hoouah!)

Live it up, live it up, livitup mah darlings,
Live it up, live it up, live it up so well!
Live it up, live it up, livitup mah darlings,
Live it up, live it up, live it up so well!



Come on, bébé, git cha on da floor!
Come on bébé, je te bien adore!
Je veux t'aimer toujours,
Je veux t'aimer belle,
Je veux que tu m'aime aussi,
sans aucune mal mot, querelle.

Author notes

I know enough French to be dangereux. (lol) Ma mère m'a envoyé pour apprendre le francais quand j'avais onze ans. Nous le parlions de temps en temps.

To be played either with jazz piano or bass guitar, or synthesizer programme or software. Rhythm in lower key of F or "So."

Instruments: piano or guitar, accordeon, drum set, maybe cowbells & castanets. Chorus of 2-3 girls or mixed gender chorus a la Talking Heads. Also some influence by Les Negresses Vertes, a European-North African group of artists. Only my music would be much more high powered, more trance, heavier beat, good to dance.

    Knew it had to be you - the beat, the beat is all - I could hear this all right - but it was a bit Lou Reed, Walk on the Wild Side for me. Great write, good luck in the contest
