LYRICS: “Faux pas” means “Wrong move” or “Wrong act”
A song of Tabu Ley Rochereau, sang by the queen Mbilia Bel:[Verse] Stay there where you are, I’ve heard that you are requesting my address
So you are being send by my rival
I want you to forget my man now. I can’t fight you because I’m peaceful
I’ve been hearing about you quite for some time. You’re being send to take my man away from me.
Go back to where you are coming from. Ask to those who know about me when I go crazy.I’ve been hearing about you quite for some time. Where ever I would go you would inquire about my whereabout. You’re being sent by my rival. But the one sending you is fooling herself. Now she’s sending you to get my man for her, but at the same time, you yourself start to fall in love with him. “You can not leave a goat along with kassava leaves”.
there’s still so much i don’t understand. like for example, the fact that in congo a 9 minute song about guy troubles can be a pop hit. actually, at the end of this clip it just kind of cuts out, so for all i know there’s another 9 minutes coming. its a nice groove though. “you can not leave a goat along with kassava leaves”
this video is currently the first thing that comes up when you search for faux pas in youtube. the third video is a woman grabbing her boobs. when is it a good time to change your band name, or does someone have to sue you first?
