Lyrics :
Papa,why do you play
All the same old songs?
Why do you sing
With the melody?
Cause down on the street
Something’s goin’ on
There’s a brand new beat
And a brand new song
He said :
“In my life,there was so much anger
Still I have no regrets
Just like you,I was such a rebel
So dance your own dance,and never forget.“
Chorus :
N’oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation has its way
A need to disobey
N’oubliez jamais
It’s in your destiny
A need to disagree
When rules get in the way
N’oubliez jamais
Mama,why do you dance
To the sa...me old songs?
Why do you sing
Only harmony?
Cause down on the street
Something’s goin’ on
There’s a brand new beat
And a brand new song
She said :
“In my heart there’s a young girls passion
For a life long duet
And someday soon
