Мафия 9. Mage Valley

In me, in me, my beloved
Tell me, tell me, if something is wrong
Only this rules us,
Tell me, how many times?

To share the deepest sorrow
With the first person you meet, who considers all this banal

I listen to all your confessions,
And the Hive chants intoxication
I listen to all those you accuse,
Who irritates you, fascinates you:
It's "l'âme-stram-gram" *

In me, in me, my beloved
Tell me, tell me, if something is wrong
Only this rules us,
Tell me, how many times

In me, in me, my beloved
Tell me, tell me, if something is wrong
Intervene and slip your belly
Into my opening

Absent ones, Bumblebee, a friendly ear, *******
Confessions, psychoanalysis on the couch
I listen to everything you whisper, ********
And the Hive beats the rhythm,
I listen to your Oedipus complexes, *********
And the Hive manifests:
It's "l'âme-stram-gram"

Âme-stram-gram **********
Pique et pique et colégram,
Bourre et bourre et ratatam,
Âme-stram-gram,
Pique dame,
Âme-stram-gram stings, stings me in the soul,***********
Stuffed with male members,
Âme-stram-gram stings the ladies.
Notes.

*L'Âme-Stram-Gram. Am stram gram is the beginning of a children's rhyme. By replacing the first word with âme (soul), Mylène creates a concept that everyone is free to interpret in their own way. In the album booklet, the lyrics are printed on a background that looks like a draft of the song, according to which the original title was L'essaim d'abeilles, that is, "A Swarm of Bees." Returning to l'âme-stram-gram, we can assume that the concept is related to the ideas of a game (rhyme) and psychoanalysis (soul).

**The word ça also means "it," a psychological term from Freudian theory.

***J'ouïs is heard as jouis - I experience orgasm.

****Wordplay: confesses is perceived as con (a vulgar term for female genitals) and fesses (buttocks).
Therefore ***+****=I experience orgasm from your female genitals and buttocks

*****Wordplay: les seins - breasts.

******Wordplay: tes reins - your hips. (Your hips fascinate you.)

*******A friendly ear is an analogue of our concept of "confidant," a person who will always listen.

********Wordplay: sucer - to suck. (I experience orgasm from how confidently you suck.)

*********In general, it's the Oedipus complex, but Mylène put the term in the plural.

**********That very children's rhyme, the first line of which served as the basis for the song's title. The same play on the word "soul."

***********By changing some words, Mylène introduces a new meaning into the rhyme.
