Hello,
if you're still reading this ... the soundtrack from "La Chinoise" exists only as a top rare EP record released in France at the movie's time. The Chinese song is titled "Mao-Mao" and it is interpreted by Claude Channes.

Almost impossible to find nowadays !

THANKS A LOT!!!
As you see, I'm actually still reading this quite regularly because I was really looking for it for quite a long time. Meanwhile, I recorded the song from the movie track onto Tape but I'm really looking forward now to get the whole song!

Thanks again
David

does anybody know the lyrics? and maybe translated in english??

[–] daniil-popov 18 years ago

Here is english translation taken from the subtitles:
Vietnam burns
and me I spurn Mao Mao

Johnson giggles
and me I wiggle Mao Mao

Napalm runs
and me I gun Mao Mao

Cities die
and me I cry Mao Mao

Whores cry
and me I sigh Mao Mao

Chorus:
The rice is mad and me a cad
It's the Little Red Book
That makes it all move
lmperialism lays down the law
Revolution is not a party
The A-bomb is a paper tiger
The masses are the real heroes

The Yanks kill
and me I read Mao Mao

The jester is king
and me I sing Mao Mao

The bombs go off
and me I scoff Mao Mao

Girls run
and me I follow Mao Mao

The Russians eat
and me I dance Mao Mao

I denounce and I renounce Mao Mao

It's the Little Red Book

That makes it all move.

Does anyone have the original french lyrics?

[–] obbah 16 years ago

I always knew studying French would be useful! Here you are:

Le Vietnam brûle et moi je hurle: Mao Mao!
Johnson rigole et moi je vole: Mao Mao!
Le napalme coule et moi je roule: Mao Mao!
Les villes crèvent et moi je rêve: Mao Mao!
Les putains crient et moi je ris: Mao Mao!
Le rire est fou et moi je joue: Mao Mao!

C'est le Petit Livre rouge
Qui fait que tout enfin bouge

L'impérialisme dicte partout sa loi
La révolution n'est pas un dîner
La bombe A est un tigre en papier
Les masses sont les véritables héros
L'Américain tue et moi je m'émue: Mao Mao!
Les fous sont rois et moi je voue Mao Mao!
Les bombes tonnent et moi je sonne: Mao Mao!
Les PP fuient et moi je fuis: Mao Mao!
Les Russes mangent et moi je danse: Mao Mao!
Je peux dénonce' et je rénonce: Mao Mao!

C'est le Petit Livre rouge
Qui fait que tout enfin bouge

La base de l'armée, c'est le soldat
Le vrai pouvoir est au bout du fusil
Les monstres seront tous anéantis
L'ennemi ne périt pas de lui-même

Mao Mao x4

Since the last lines weren't translated I'll give it a shot:

The base of the army is the soldier
The real power is held by the the point of a gun
The enemy will not go under by himself
The monsters will all be annihilated

Can someone tell me how to download and not just stream the song?
