Fifty Sixty

Alizée - Psychédélices


Pretty sixteen

Beauty of the sixties

Swaying to the beat

You look divine

When you dance

In Andy's eyes


Goodbye bebop

On top

It's pop-art

Chasing you down

Got you trapped

In pop-corn and hula hoops


Dream of glory and fortune

Chic in Chanel, love and glamour

On camera you pose and expose

Trying every pose on 400ASA [1]


Fifty sixty

Born in the 50's

Sexy 60's

So exciting

In ecstacy [2]

Naively believing everything

Andy tells her

That she's the prettiest

Of all the models


Like an icon

Turning under Nikon lenses

Your face on Velvet and Nico [3]

You want to be far from Lou Reed

In East Village [4]

We're always young

Take me, yellow cab

Where legends come from


Dream of glory and fortune

Chic in Chanel, love will always be glamorous

I see you through polaroid

Time hasn't produced wrinkles yet


Fifty sixty

Born in the 50's

Sexy 60's

So exciting

In ecstasy

Naively believing everything that's said

Everything that's said about her

That she's the prettiest

Of all the models


Flower power is dead on the floor

Electro and pop aren't here yet

With the rockstars, we've changed everything

Rocking and rolling, pop's been beat up


Flower power died of natural causes

New wave and techno aren't here yet

Go on, play your last role as model

But you still dance in Andy's eyes


Fifty sixty

Born in the 50's

Sexy 60's

So exciting

In ecstasy

Naively believing everything that's said

Everything that's said about her

That she's the prettiest

Of all the models
