You promised me
Just me and you
You promised me the moon and the
sun, the birds in the sky
You promised me a wonderful life, they were only lies
You promised me all diamonds and pearls that I never got
You promised me red roses and gold but soon you forgot
[Chorus]
You promised me
Just me and you
You promised me I could be your queen and youÂ’d be my king
You promised me a white wedding dress, where is the ring?
You promised me your tender caress your kisses at night
So try to show it wasnÂ’t in vein coz IÂ’m wasting my time
[Chorus]
You promised me
Just me and you
Tu Es Foutu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu Es Foutu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
I donÂ’t know what to do with my life
But I know my rule is no second chance
You promised me
You promised me
You promised me
Tu Es Foutu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu Es Foutu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
Tu tu tu tu tu tu
You promised me
Tu Es Foutu
You promised me
Tu Es Foutu
Just me and you
You promised me the moon and the
sun, the birds in the sky
You promised me a wonderful life, they were only lies
You promised me all diamonds and pearls that I never got
You promised me red roses and gold but soon you forgot
[Chorus]
You promised me
Just me and you
You promised me I could be your queen and youÂ’d be my king
You promised me a white wedding dress, where is the ring?
You promised me your tender caress your kisses at night
So try to show it wasnÂ’t in vein coz IÂ’m wasting my time
[Chorus]
You promised me
Just me and you

Tu Es Foutu (You Promised Me)
In Grid's "Tu Es Foutu" stands as a defining track from the French electroclash and new wave revival of the early 2010s. The song exemplifies the genre's signature blend of aggressive, distorted synthesizers and driving basslines, often paired with a raw, vocal delivery that conveys a sense of chaotic intimacy. Released alongside other key singles from the artist's discography, the recording captures the frenetic energy and emotional volatility characteristic of the era's underground scene. Its enduring popularity stems from its ability to function as both a club anthem and a personal statement, cementing In Grid's reputation as a pivotal figure in modern French electronic music.
