So Grace Jones is eating in a restaurant. The waiter comes back and asks Grace if she needs anything else, to which she replies, "I need a man, perhaps a man like you." The waiter replies, "Sorry, I'm already taken."

Story about this misheard lyric by: Hu’s On First

The villain song from an obscure animated film from 1992. I thought she was telling her henchmen that if they “failed” her, she would have no mercy on them. (Jones’ character actually does kill several of her henchmen while she’s singing the song, for some reason).

Foreign Language in English Songs:

"La vie en rose"

The Lyrics:

Des yeux qui font baisser les miens Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche Voilá le portrait sans retouche De l'homme auquel j'appartiens and so on.... Later in the song she sings some English lyrics.

Why:

Because of the few English lines, this song should be in the list.
