LYRICS (FR)
[Couplet 1]
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 ?

[@augustindugre7699]

For all English speakers:
The song talks about the singer's childhood without his father who got killed during the Rwandan Genocide in 1994.
Thus, his mother hid his death throughout the childhood of stromae until he was 12 years old

Actually (just for the fact), Stromae did had a father figure. He was killed in the Ruanda genocide, in 98 something like that, I could be wrong about the date. But yeah, that’s what happened to Stromae’s papa.

[@phildragonbleu]

@@edmondvalmont1546 the genocide happened in 93 when he was 7-8. Stromae, growing up in Belgium, learned it in 97, but he confessed , in 2019, that his father figure was already dead to him before he was killed, since he almost never was here with him and had a lot of step siblings in Ruanda.

La canción “Papaoutai” de Stromae se lanzó como el primer sencillo del álbum “Racine carrée” el 13 de mayo de 20131. El título de la canción es un juego de palabras utilizando una forma abstracta llamada trompe l’oeil. La letra cuenta la historia de la ausencia de un padre, algo que Stromae mismo experimentó. Su padre era ruandés y fue asesinado durante el genocidio de Ruanda en 1994. En una entrevista, Stromae admitió haber llorado mientras escribía la canción, diciendo “probablemente porque es algo que viví”. El coro de la canción dice: “Où t’es, papaoutai?” (que significa “¿Dónde estás, papá?”). La canción ha resonado con muchos oyentes que han experimentado la ausencia de un padre, convirtiéndose en un himno para aquellos que buscan comprender y llenar ese vacío

[@tityadoreess]

here is not the case of bad parenting, he's telling his story when his father died in the Rwanda genocide, and when he asked his mom where's his father was (Papaoutai) she would tell him that he was at work, that he works a lot that's why he's not around, but he'll come soon, she couldn't bring herself to tell him the truth at a young age, and he spent his childhood wondering where his father was and when he'll be coming back

Hello

[@8bitsongs]

I made 8 bits of this video. Can you see?

[@madisonmcallister4835]

Its sadder if you know the story about his dad:
His dad went away when he was young, and he'd ask where his dad was and his mom would say "He's away on business." Things went on like this until he was 12 or so, when his mom told him the truth- His dad's father was having difficulties in his old age and needed help, so he returned back to his home country, Rwanda, in 1994. Stromae's father was killed in the genocide.

[@DTux5249]

To be absolutely fair, a lot of songs have the same connotations lol
La Macarena is about a girl cheating on her boyfriend "Vitorino", while he was talking his oath as a conscript
"Macarena tiene un novio que se llama,
Que se llama de apellido Vitorino
Y en la jura de bandera del muchacho
Se la dió con dos amigos"
"Macarena has a boyfriend
He goes by the name of Vitorino
And while he took his oath of conscript
She was giving it to 2 friends"
Smooth criminal literally describes the murder of 2 people, presumably a couple.
"He came into your apartment
Left bloodstains on the carpet
Then you ran into the bedroom
You were struck down
It was your doom"
I don't care has a depressing bit about sometimes feeling okay, and sometimes not because nothing in life matters
Run along, nothing to say
'Cause all along it never mattered anyway
Sometimes, I feel like I'm okay
Sometimes, I feel like I wanna run away
