Jany (previously known as "Jenny" and "Jenny's Secret") is a solved electronic song by French band Les Oidgts, which was uploaded to WatZatSong by user Guglielm in 2013.
Background
On July 27th, 2013, the song was first uploaded to WatZatSong by user Guglielm,[1] before being reuploaded on May 13th, 2014 to add that the song was internally tagged as Jenny - Jenny's Secret.[2] Based on the OP's other found songs, this song was most likely recorded between 1991 and 1992, and recorded from the WFMU New Jersey radio station.[3]
The song is built around various samples, including It's A Shame (1970) by The Spinners for the guitar intro,[4] Take It On Back (1945) by Cozy Cole's All Stars for the saxophone solo,[5] and a bongo sound effect, which was first used in Funky Punany (1991) by Sly Dunbar.[6][7]
On May 12th, 2023, the OP accidentally marked the song as solved on WatZatSong and renamed it Tomek - Love Music, which is the name of another one of his lost songs.[2]

On August 24th, 2024, Discord user muteualmortuary identified the song as Jany by French band Les Oidgts, after discovering it on a Bandcamp page for a record label called Acontrario.[8]
Lyrics
| Presumed Lyrics |
| (Chorus)
There’s a girl, her name is Jenny And her face looks like she’s pretty Working fares there along the street She don’t care if people see me She is the one who wants some freedom She is the one who gets the boredom With all the men coming nearer muttering Closer dear, some dirty thing (Verse 1) She hates men to look at her that way Or call her anything, no way With those vicious men feeling nervous Yeah, sneering bastards feeling nervous Staring at her skirt or underwear All that, all that’s more than she can bear Who do they think they are Men stopping by her intercom Who do they think she is Finding might for their fantasies Where do they think they’re going Spending time on Valentine's Whistling at her like a dog Typical from their (bone?) (Chorus) There’s a girl, her name is Jenny And her face looks like she’s pretty Working fares there along the street She don’t care if people see me She is the one who wants some freedom She is the one who gets the boredom With all the men coming nearer muttering Closer dear, some dirty thing (Verse 2) Quietly, she’s waiting at the station Sitting on a bench under the neon The crickets singing in the ceiling And the neon strip is noisily buzzing Here comes a bloke, sick from a drug But Jenny’s not well and he spits like hell Waiting to land, he acts like he’s sad He starts getting mad and becomes really bad As she turns her face, he strokes her knee As when he creeps in towards her pussy She gets up just to kick him in the balls He deserved to lose those, bang against the wall (Chorus) There’s a girl, her name is Jenny And her face looks like she’s pretty Working fares there along the street She don’t care if people see me She is the one who wants some freedom She is the one who gets the boredom With all the men coming nearer muttering Closer dear, some dirty thing (Verse 1) Who do they think they are Men stopping by her intercom Who do they think she is Finding might for their fantasies Where do they think they’re going Spending time on Valentine's Whistling at her like a dog Typical from their (bone?) (Outro) The girl laments so much But loves some men with charming ways The girl laments so much But then won’t kiss and let them play The girl laments so much But loves some men with charming ways The girl laments so much But then won’t kiss and let them play Actually the girl likes sex But she likes it very passionate Actually the girl likes sex But she likes it very passionate The girl laments so much But loves some men with charming ways The girl laments so much But then won’t kiss and let them play The girl laments so much But loves some men with charming ways The girl laments so much But then won’t kiss and let them play Actually the girl likes sex But she likes it very passionate Actually the girl likes sex But she likes it very passionate |
