Notes
The original wording of "step on the gas" literally translates as "press the mushroom" because of the round, mushroom-like shape of the accelerator in early cars.
The first part is sung to the tune to "Si tu veux faire mon bonheur", the second part is sung to the tune to the drinking song Chevaliers de la Table Ronde.
