Laisse Tomber Les Filles Lyrics in English France Gall

Laisse Tomber Les Filles (literally “Drop the girls”) is France Gall’s sassy warning to a serial heart-breaker. Over an upbeat 1960s yé-yé groove, the singer flips the usual love-song script: instead of begging him to stay, she tells him to keep walking. Why? Because payback is on its way. She reminds him that every tear he’s caused will come back to him, and when that day arrives, no one will be there to comfort him except his own regret.

Behind the catchy melody lies a lesson in karma and empathy. You cannot “play with an innocent heart” without consequences; luck eventually leaves those who leave others wounded. Gall’s confident tone turns the song into a playful but pointed reminder that actions have echoes. It is at once a breakup anthem, a moral tale, and an invitation to dance while you reclaim your power.
