Translation: 1er Gaou - Magic System

"1er Gaou" from the album "1er Gaou" (Original Lyrics)
By Magic System

It's when I was down that the girl Antou left me
When I had little
Morning, noon, evening
We were together
At the "Rue Princesse"
At the "Mille Marquis"
Together at the “Santos”
But once the money was gone
Antou changed sides
No more money
And she changed boyfriends
You are crazy, you are crazy

Thank god for I knew how to sing a little
I did my demo tape, people saw me on TV
Morning, noon, evening, it was me singing on radio
Antou saw that and said the fool made it
Wait, let me go and take his money

It is said that the first fool is not a fool
It’s the second fool who is the real fool
(Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me)

Sunday morning,
Knock - knock, someone's knocking at my door
To my great surprise it's the girl Antou I see
Jokingly I say it’s been a while since we've seen each other
She tries to lie to me saying:
“Darling I had travelled, but I am back now,
I belong to you, take me as a gift and do what you want with me”

I say sweet darling what do you want to eat
Without hesitation she says barbecued chicken
I say sweet darling, its chicken you want to eat
But a chicken is too small and won’t satisfy you
I will give you barbecued Cayman instead
Elephant "Kedjenou" of elephant is what you are going to eat

She is upset and says she is going home
But if she goes home, horniness is going to kill me
So I ask for her forgiveness and she accepts
Then at one point, she messes it all up
She stops asking for chicken and now wants fried plantain
If its fried plantain, that’s not complicated
Its a banana plantation that you are going to fry
Instead of a fork that can’t fill you up
Its with a rake that you are going to eat

Kader is a fool, BlΓ© is a fool
Soro Guillaume is a fool, Sabine is a fool
Angelo is a fool, Hotorino is a fool
BlΓ© is a fool, Dieu is a fool
Kader is a fool, Kader is my fool
BlΓ© is a fool, Michel is a fool
Emile is a fool, HonorΓ© is a fool

I tell you to dance
Look out for yourself
And dance
