People don't notice tons of stuff. I had a particularly religious sister who would sing the abba songs "Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?" lyric while dancing and had no idea what she was saying.
I think it's not from ABBA's song, but from Labelle's ‘Lady Marmalade’ (which is technically a cover, since it was previously recorded by The Eleventh Hour, band of Kenny Nolan who co-wrote it with Bob Crewe).
shes a bit older and I think even like disco so I figured it was abba.
It so happens that 'Lady Marmalade' in fact predates 'Voulez-Vous'.
