Ca Plane Pour Moi/Jet Boy Jet Girl mystery solved!

Who did it first? Elton Motello, Plastic Bertrand, or The Damned? And why are the lyrics of all three songs different? Yes, I know, one's in French, but the French lyrics translate differently. At any rate, I was going to pose these question here, but I think I just found a site that answered my question:
