Stromae - Papaoutai (lyrics) 

Who’s here from 2024

Stromae :singing emotinal song about his dad Everyone who cant speak French:vibing with the music and dancing

Im currently learning french by listening to french music and watching french movies and after actually listening to the lyrics a few times this hits hard.

Younger me: *just vibin* Me after learning some french: well damn that hits hard

Nostalgie... 🤩

5 years before ı listened this music when ı was kid. Now when ı hear this music ı remember my old days 👌

эта песня сильно распространилась в тик токе в этом году. до того как я начала учить французский я думала что это веселая песня но потом постепенно начала понимать перевод и несмотря на то что я в очень хороших отношениях с отцом эта песня рвет душу..

I recently started listening to Stromae. I love how all his songs have different meanings. It's not just lyrics. He tells a story.

I sent this to my father days before he died. He was out of town because of work. I still cry when i listen to this song.

This is like one of those sad songs where the melody just gives you good vibes

je reviens chaque jour pour ecouter ce chef-d'oeuvre

The french music is so amazing

"Tout le monde sait comment on fait des bébés, mais personne sait comment on fait des papas".. Stromae 💔😢

Me as a kid: Vibin me after learning french: Dam that hit hard

[Verse 1] Tell me where he comes from At last I'll know where to go Mommy says that when you look hard You always find something She says he's never very far away He leaves very often for work Mommy says, “Working is good” Better than being in bad company Right? Pre-Chorus] Where's your dad? Tell me where's your dad? Without even having to talk to him He knows what's wrong Oh beloved dad Tell me where you're hiding I must've counted my fingers At least a thousand times [Chorus] Where are you? Dad, where are you? Where are you? Dad, where are you? Where are you? Dad, where are you? Where, where are you, where are you dad? Where are you? Dad, where are you? Where are you? Dad, where are you? Where are you? Dad, where are you? Where, where are you, where are you dad? [Verse 2] Even if we believe it or not There'll be a day we won't believe it anymore One day we'll all be dads And from one day to the other we'll disappear Will we be hated? Will we be admired? Just passing on genes or geniuses? Tell us who gives birth to these irresponsible people? Tell us who, look Everyone knows how to make babies But no one knows how to make dads Mr. Know-It-All must've inherited it Maybe you need to wing it or something? Tell us where they're hiding We must've bitten our fingers at least A thousand times Chorus] Where are you? Dad, where are you? Where are you? Dad, where are you? Where are you? Dad, where are you? Where, where are you, where are you dad? [Pre-Chorus] Where's your dad? Tell me where's your dad? Without even having to talk to him He knows what's wrong Oh beloved dad Tell me where you're hiding I must've counted my fingers At least a thousand times Where's your dad? Tell me where's your dad? Without even having to talk to him He knows what's wrong Oh beloved dad Tell me where you're hiding I must've counted my fingers At least a thousand times [Chorus] Where are you? Dad, where are you? Where are you? Dad, where are you? Where are you? Dad, where are you? Where, where are you, where are you dad?

When u don't speak French: ❤👄❤ When u do speak French: 👁💧👄💧👁

This is one of the saddest songs ever and yet people are dancing worldwide

2024 may? Anyone

Un très bien exemple pour exprimer ses sentiments en vers son père pour lui dire qu'il lui dit il le manque.

He’s basically asking where his dad is just so y’all know

Très bonne chanson C'est un excellent moyen d'exprimer les sentiments qu'un fils a envers son père

I remember my French teacher showing the class this and us loving the song, stuck in our heads good times.

my teacher used to play this for us in class, and i just found it back. Definitely one of my favorite french songs

It's really good song I can't stop listenin to it everyday ❤❤❤

soy de Argentina y me encantó la canción aunque sea triste tiene ritmo y es bailable

I love this song. I'm not from any French speaking country but I really love the language so much so that I decided to learn it. 💜

This song hits different if you understand French… This song is my childhood lol I always listened to this song without understanding it, but now that I’m learning French this hits different

The lyrics hit even deeper when you learn his dad was killed in the Rwandan genocide. Sad shit really.

French songs are so catchy can't stop listening to this masterpiece

Learned about Stromae in my old french class and fell in love with his music. This is one of my faves

Who's here from 2024 ?

"Tout le monde sait comment on fait des bébés, mais personne sait comment on fait des papas"😢😢

If u understand this song.. it will be depressing but if u don't know what it means it's probably the best music and rythm ever....... If u know u know.

Mükemmel❤

Damn Stromae's song hit REAL hard after u 1st learn french and 2nd grow up Like i knew what the song was about but every lyric was there for a purpose... It's not like some other singers that put filler here and there and dilute the meaning of the song.

I remember as a kid not being a frech speaker but a fluent singer of this song

So good👌

whenever i listen to this on youtube i go to this video cuz the music video makes me ball my eyes out

🎤Lyrics:- Dites-moi d'où il vient Enfin je saurai où je vais Maman dit que lorsqu'on cherche bien On finit toujours par trouver Elle dit qu'il n'est jamais très loin Qu'il part très souvent travailler Maman dit "travailler c'est bien" Bien mieux qu'être mal accompagné Pas vrai ? [Pont] Où est ton papa ? Dis-moi où est ton papa ? Sans même devoir lui parler Il sait ce qui ne va pas Ah sacré papa Dis-moi où es-tu caché ? Ça doit, faire au moins mille fois que j'ai Compté mes doigts Hey ! [Refrain] Où t'es, papaoutai? Où t'es, papaoutai? Où t'es, papaoutai? Où t'es, où t'es où, papaoutai ? Où t'es, papaoutai ? Où t'es, papaoutai ? Où t'es, papaoutai ? Où t'es, où t'es où, papaoutai ? Où t'es Où t'es... [Couplet 2] Quoi, qu'on y croit ou pas Y aura bien un jour où on n'y croira plus Un jour ou l'autre on sera tous papa Et d'un jour à l'autre on aura disparu Serons-nous détestables ? Serons-nous admirables ? Des géniteurs ou des génies ? Dites-nous qui donne naissance aux irresponsables ? Ah dites-nous qui, tiens Tout le monde sait comment on fait des bébés Mais personne sait comment on fait des papas Monsieur Je-sais-tout en aurait hérité, c'est ça Faut l'sucer d'son pouce ou quoi ? Dites-nous où c'est caché, ça doit Faire au moins mille fois qu'on a Bouffé nos doigts Hey ! [Refrain] Où t'es, papaoutai? Où t'es, papaoutai? Où t'es, papaoutai? Où t'es, où t'es où, papaoutai ? Où t'es, papaoutai ? Où t'es, papaoutai ? Où t'es, papaoutai ? Où t'es, où t'es où, papaoutai ? Où t'es Où t'es... [Pont] Où est ton papa ? Dis-moi où est ton papa ? Sans même devoir lui parler Il sait ce qui ne va pas Ah sacré papa Dis-moi où es-tu caché ? Ça doit, faire au moins mille fois que j'ai Compté mes doigts Hey Où est ton papa ? Dis-moi où est ton papa ? Sans même devoir lui parler Il sait ce qui ne va pas Ah sacré papa Dis-moi où es-tu caché ? Ça doit, faire au moins mille fois que j'ai Compté mes doigts Hey ! [Refrain] Où t'es, papaoutai? Où t'es, papaoutai? Où t'es, papaoutai? Où t'es, où t'es où, papaoutai ? Où t'es, papaoutai ? Où t'es, papaoutai ? Où t'es, papaoutai ? Où t'es, où t'es où, papaoutai ? Où t'es Où t'es... #papaoutai #stroame

its kinda cool how the song goes from "this is boring" to "okay this is kinda cool" to just full on dubstep

Jaime ce chanson I’ll a beacoup de nostgalie ❤

Best song for ever

Its a really amazing song

I listen this song everyday but it seems to me like a new song

Didn't understand a thing still enjoyed it. It was fun

I heard this song in 2017 so I was like in 2nd or 3rd grade now in finishing 7th grade fine flies I miss the old days

Bellissima canzone mi si addice molto.

I grew up without a father..and when we finally met again..he died. This hits on a different level.

C'est une très bonne chanson

This lyrics are on fire

This is so sad but also so lovely and me singing this song and being Irish and not making a mistake in the song is amazing
