Yaktaga
Prit sa puce en astrakan
Puis il lui fit reluire un temps
Le chant de Yaktagan
Mélotrons
Sirops d'efforts d'accordéons
Soufflaient en désaccord...
Yaktaga
Espérait plumer son foie
Décortiquer ses avant-bras
Au son
Des espadons
Sirupeux
Il lui lorgna le fond des yeux
L'insecte fit: "encore..."
Après quoi
Les harmonicas
Soufflaient sur le sofa
De longues cigarettes
Qu'elle jette
Yaktaga
Caramélisa deux fois
Roula sa sciure
En entonnant
Le chant de Yaktagan
Cet air-là
Tournicota deux ou trois fois
En reste-t-il encore?
Les Rita Mitsouko are a French pop rock duo active from 1980 to 2008, formed by guitarist Fred Chichin and singer Catherine Ringer. The duo first performed at the Gibus Club in Paris in 1980. Their sound, characterized by a mix of energetic rock, electronic influences, and often ironic and provocative French lyrics, quickly won over the French public. Among the group's most famous songs are "Marcia Baila", "C'est comme ça", "Les Mains en l'air" and "Andy". Fred Chichin was a fundamental element in the creation of the Rita Mitsouko sound, with his powerful electric guitar and catchy melodies.
