Stromae - AVF (ft. Gims & Orelsan) (English Translation)
[Chorus: Stromae]
Go fuck yourself!

[Verse 1: Stromae]
Always the same speeches, always the same façade
Holland, Belgium, France, austere
Leftwing or liberal, center forward or centrist
I don’t care, all of them are con artists

[Pre-Chorus: Maître Gims]
I don’t say what I think, but I think what I say
When I see what I see and what our lives are worth
It’s not so surprising that we’re so rude
So follow my madness, followed me, follow me now!

[Chorus: Stromae]
Go fuck yourself!
Go fuck yourself!

[Verse 2: Orelsan]
I was supposed to be an up-and-comin' youngin'
I’ve always been just a stressed kid who panics
It’s marked on our birth certificates in italics
We all have one foot in the psychiatric hospital
Nights in the bottle, days in the traffic
Since when was I ever in the shoes of Joe Blow?
The city in the ears, the smoke in the lungs
Sheep, sheep, sheep …
[Verse 3: Maître Gims]
Pardon my language
I’ve been drinking from ten years of age
The media blackmails too much
Did you take me for a slave?
Stand up, it’s time to work
Gotta do damage control
Ask-ask RaelSan
We’re all gonna end up in cages!

[Chorus: Stromae]
Go fuck yourself!
Go fuck yourself!

[Verse 4: Stromae]
Rich, and miserable
But fortunate enough to have the European Union
It’s cool, nah, but so expensive
That you have to cut money with a knife
And you work just to spend
Working your ass off and for what
To cough up, cough up more cash
And bleed until you get scars

[Verse 5: Maître Gims]
This is for the guys I grew up with since day one
Except those who forgot me in their success
You know life is crazy, no point in making a fuss about it
Just ask the kids thugging in the hood
I didn’t break anything, I’m leaving, we’ll meet again one of these days
Go fuck yourselves, I got a football game
[Chorus: Stromae]
Go fuck yourself!
Go fuck yourself!

[Verse 6: Orelsan]
Stepping on stage, get booed!
Walking in the street, get judged!
Getting plastic surgery, get tricked out!
Signing contracts, get scammed
I turn on the TV to spit on motherfuckers I hate
I have 300 channels, think about how many insults I spit
It’s said that it’s showing kindness, really I’m only showing weakness
Someone should make them pay their debt before I die of old age

[Pre-Chorus: Maître Gims]
I don’t say what I think, but I think what I say
When I see what I see and what our lives are worth
It’s not so surprising that we’re so rude
So follow my madness, followed me, follow me now!

[Chorus: Stromae]
Go fuck yourself!
Go fuck yourself!

[Bridge: Stromae]
Will you close your eyes
For a long time and then stay offside?
A little deceiving or envious?
It’s true that we’re a little of both
Will you close your eyes
For a long time and then stay offside?
A little deceiving or envious?
It’s true that we’re a little of both
[Chorus: Stromae]
Go fuck yourself!
Go fuck yourself!
