Lyrics:

les boys do cabaret

les boys are glad to be gay

they're not afraid now

disco bar in germany

les boys are glad to be

upon parade now

les boys got leather straps

les boys got ss caps

but they got no gun now

get dressed up get a little risque

got to do a little s & m these days

it's all in fun now

les boys come on again

for the high class whores

and the businessmen

who drive in their mercedes benz

to a disco bar in old munchen

they get the jokes that the d.j. makes

they get nervous and they make mistakes

they're bad for business

some tourists take a photograph

les boys don't get one lough

he says they're useless

late at night when they've gone away

les boys dream of jean genet

high heel shoes and a black berret

and the posters on the wall that say

les boys do cabaret

les boys are glad to be gay

poetic licence...why pronounce it les and not 'les' in French?

It's a slippery notion, yet I think this song is underrated

Sure thing..."happy" is all about believing Catherine the Great was an R&B Diva and Gorgonzola is one of the quartiers of New Orleans...

Gay is also a common British term meaning "happy" so it isn't much at all based on homosexuality it hints it only twice in the song but its so light its hard to notice

An additional note the song is making light on the gays to show they are not different the world famous film from 1997 known as "Les Boys" took the approach as well its mostly to target the military's stationed in his nearby countries as well as his own

Are all of you just simply fools or are you simply under-educated. This song is full of double meaning its not actually diversifying homosexuality, instead it's making fun of the German and British armies A Black Beret is the headgear worn by the Royal tank regiment in Britain and was adopted by other army branches worldwide. A cabaret is a night-show of exotic and erotic women in a dance inside a night club or a restaurant. A term of french origin, SS Caps are military hats.
