Ouais, ouais 00:10
Ouais, ouais 00:12
Au bled, on dit "S7ab la casquette" quand faut parler d'la policía (eh) 00:13
Monoï et paillettes, elle cherche un shmet' un peu trop niya (eh, eh) 00:17
Elle est belle, c'est bête qu'elle vende son corps pour quelques billets (eh, eh) 00:21
C'est vrai qu'elle a un bête de corps mais elle aime trop briller, eh-eh 00:25
Azul (ah ouais), c'est l'retour du byle-ka méchant (ah oui) 00:29
On tire, après on réfléchit (ah ouais), depuis l'temps, y a rien qu'a gé-chan (ah oui) 00:32
À Bar-, à Barbès, c'est Annaba (Annaba), à Marseille, j'connais des chaouis (ah ouais) 00:36
J'fume une blonde dans le bar-tabac ou dans le Cullinan chromé (ah ouais) 00:39
Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah 00:43
Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah 00:47
Un peu d'amis, beaucoup d'ennemis, mucho la jalousie 00:50
Ils ont juste pas les plugs, sinon, ils m'feraient d'la sorcellerie 00:54
Mucho la jalousie, méchant mais pas mafiosi 00:58
J'm'en bats les reins, scusi, ça charbonne comme à l'usine 01:02
J'ai-, j'ai des soucis plus gros qu'ma tête (tête) 01:05
Mon Dieu, qu'est-ce qu'elle est bête (bête) 01:08
Bébé, si y a un autre mec qui t'parle, j'te jure que j'lui casse la tête 01:09
Et après j'te fais ta fête et j'casse ta copine la folle 01:13
Elle m'fait des avances depuis mais t'as rien vu, t'es une grosse gogole 01:16
Tu m'disais "c'est ma sista, ma bestie, ma habiba" 01:20
Mais quand tu quittes la pièce, elle s'mord les lèvres quand elle me piste 01:24

[English]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Back home, we say "the guys in caps" when we talk about the police (eh)
Monoï and glitter, she's looking for a guy who's a bit too naive (eh, eh)
She's beautiful, it's a shame she sells her body for a few bills (eh, eh)
It's true she has an amazing body, but she loves to shine too much, eh-eh
Azul (oh yeah), the wicked street kid is back (oh yeah)
We shoot first, then we think (oh yeah), for a long time, it's been nothing but trouble (oh yeah)
In Bar-, in Barbès, it's like Annaba, in Marseille, I know some Chaouis (oh yeah)
I smoke a blunt in the corner shop or in a chrome Cullinan (oh yeah)
Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
A few friends, many enemies, so much jealousy
They just don't have the connections, otherwise, they'd use black magic on me
So much jealousy, wicked but not a mobster
I don't give a damn, scusi, I'm working hard like it's a factory
I've, I've got problems bigger than my head (head)
My God, she's so foolish (foolish)
Baby, if another guy talks to you, I swear I'll break his head
And then I'll go after you and break up with your crazy girlfriend
She's been hitting on me for a while, but you haven't seen a thing, you're a total idiot
You used to tell me "she's my sister, my bestie, my habiba"
But when you leave the room, she bites her lips while she watches me
I was listening to "Guerrilla" on my way to La Jonquera
Me, I kept my cap on, I was afraid of the cameras, ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
A few friends, many enemies, so much jealousy
They just don't have the connections, otherwise, they'd use black magic on me
So much jealousy, wicked but not a mobster
I don't give a damn, scusi, I'm working hard like it's a factory
É-É-É-Éric Cantona, I'm not Montoya
My darling, as soon as we meet, jet ski, beach, Marseille
Éric Cantona, ah, I'm not Montoya, ah
My darling, as soon as we meet, jet ski, beach, Marseille
I was listening to "Guerrilla" on my way to La Jonquera
Me, I kept my cap on, I was afraid of the cameras, ah-ah
