‌Papaoutai Stromae – Afro Soul Cover Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tell me where he comes from,
then I’ll know where I’m going.
Mom says that when you look hard enough,
you always end up finding him.
She says he’s never very far away,
that he often goes away to work.
Mom says, “Working is good,”
much better than being in bad company,
right?

[Bridge]
Where is your dad?
Tell me where is your dad?
Without even having to talk to him,
he knows what’s wrong.
Oh, dear dad,
tell me where are you hiding? I must have counted my fingers
at least a thousand times , hey. [Chorus] Where are you, Papaoutai? Where are you, Papaoutai? Where are you, Papaoutai? Where are you, where are you, Papaoutai? Where are you, Papaoutai? Where are you, Papaoutai? Where are you, Papaoutai? Where are you, where are you, Papaoutai?

[Post-Chorus]
Where are you?

[Verse 2]
Whether we believe it or not,
there will come a day when we no longer believe.
One day or another, we’ll all be fathers,
and from one day to the next, we’ll have disappeared.
Will we be detestable?
Will we be admirable?
Progenitors or geniuses?
Tell us, who gives birth to the irresponsible?
Ah, tell us who, please.
Everyone knows how babies are made,
but no one knows how to make fathers.
Mr. Know-It-All would have inherited it, right? Do we
have to suck it from our thumb or what?
Tell us where it’s hidden, it must
be at least a thousand times since we’ve
bitten our fingers, hey.

[Chorus]
Where are you, papaoutai?
Where are you, papaoutai?
Where are you, papaoutai?
Where are you, where are you, papaoutai?
Where are you, papaoutai?
Where are you, papaoutai?
Where are you, papaoutai?
Where are you, where are you, papaoutai?
