Eighties Retrouvé

By raincoaster

Ah, I remember this. I remember the horrific Eighties adult fashions. I remember the scar-like Eighties makeup. I remember the casually trauma-inducing toupée incidents. I remember the catchy, meaningless dance hits by soon-forgotten Eurotoddlers.

Relive again those golden days of yore with Jordy, le petit phenom du rock.

Lyrics and translation over the jump…

Jordy Dur Dur D’être Bébé (it’s Tough To Be A Baby)

C’est dur dur d’être bébé
Oh la la bébé, c’est dur dur d’être bébé
Oh la la bébé, c’est dur dur d’être bébé
Dur dur d’être bébé

Je m’appelle Jordy
J’ai quatre ans et je suis petit
Dur dur d’être bébé, dur dur d’être bébé
Viens ici, touche pas ça
Reste assis, vaa pas là
Fais comme çi, fais comme ça
Patati et patata
Pourquoi çi pourquoi ça
Pourquoi c’est comme ci
Pourquoi çi pourquoi ça
Pourquoi c’est comme ça.

Oh la la bébé, c’est dur dur d’être bébé
Oh la la bébé, c’est dur dur d’être bébé
Dur dur d’être bébé.

Et Maman, qu’est-ce que tu dis
Fais dodo, laves tes dents
Enlève tes doigts du nez
Fais pas çi, fais pas ça
Patati et patata
Pourquoi çi pourquoi ça
Pourquoi c’est comme ci
Pourquoi çi pourquoi ça
Pourquoi c’est comme ça.
Reste assis, pas d’accord!
Touche pas ça, pas d’accord!
Va pas là, pas d’accord!
T’auras pas de dessert
Et Mamie, et Papi, et Maman
C’est dur dur d’être bébé

Oh la la bébé, c’est dur dur d’être bébé
Oh la la bébé, c’est dur dur d’être bébé
Dur dur d’être bébé.

Translation:
It’s Hard To Be A Baby

It’s tough to be a baby
Oh, baby, it’s tough to be a baby
Oh, baby, it’s tough to be a baby
Tough to be a baby

My name’s Jordy, I’m four years old, I’m really small
It’s tough to be a baby, tough to be a baby
Come here, don’t touch that, sit still, don’t go there
Do this, do that, blah, blah, blah
Why this, why that, why is that like this?
Why this, why that, why is that like this?

Oh, baby, it’s tough to be a baby
Oh, baby, it’s tough to be a baby
Tough to be a baby

And mommy says, go to bed, brush your teeth
Don’t pick your nose, don’t do this, don’t do that
Blah, blah, blah
Why is this, why is that, why is that like this?
Why is this, why is that, why is that like this?
Don’t move – no way!
Don’t touch that – no way!
Don’t go there – no way!
You won’t get your dessert
And grandma, grandpa and mommy
It’s tough to be a baby

Oh, baby, it’s tough to be a baby
Oh, baby, it’s tough to be a baby
Tough to be a baby
