Kirikou [English translation]

I never grew up, but I have the strength of a man

Where I'm from, we say “Thank you, God” because he is the one who gives

I turn up togged in snipes, they want to know my story

My friend, if only you knew, you wouldn’t listen to the rumors

Forever unsatisfied, I love life, let me enjoy it

Far from the American dream, but all I have, I deserve it

All you do is run after money

All you do is chase women

You never have time, time

Run like Kirikou

The world is small, like Kirikou

You need to flee, like Kirikou

Determined like Kirikou, Kirikou

Run like Kirikou

The world is small, like Kirikou

You have need to flee, like Kirikou

Determined like Kirikou, Kirikou

Run like Kirikou

You know, in life you have to be long-suffering

The strength of the ghetto has made it that I have no competitor

I come from a large family

We do what we can because life is tricky

We don’t want your buzz, we’re scared of the mower

I’m your opposite, that groupie is behaving pretentiously

But I have nothing to offer her

I’m moving forward and I don’t want to chit chat

I represent West Africa, like Mokobe

She wants to cajole me but Mamadou is gifted

It takes all sorts to make a world

But I came from nothing to make a name for myself

All you do is run after money

All you do is chase women

You never have time, time

Run like Kirikou

The world is small, like Kirikou

You need to flee, like Kirikou

Determined like Kirikou, Kirikou

Run like Kirikou

The world is small, like Kirikou

You have need to flee, like Kirikou

Determined like Kirikou, Kirikou

Run like Kirikou

You know, in life you have to be long-suffering

The strength of the ghetto has made it that I've got no competitor

You need endurance like Kirikou

If you are wanted by the police, run fast like Kirikou

You ex wants you dead, keep a low profile like

Kirikou, Kirikou, Kirikou

Usain Bolt is nothing compared to Kirikou

Take it easy, you look like little Kirikou

If you messed up, act cute like

Kirikou, Kirikou, Kirikou

You know, in life, you have to be tough

I have no competitors, hang on!

Run like Kirikou

The world is small, like Kirikou

You need to flee, like Kirikou

Determined like Kirikou, Kirikou

Run like Kirikou

The world is small, like Kirikou

You have need to flee, like Kirikou

Determined like Kirikou, Kirikou

Run like Kirikou

The strength of the ghetto, meaning I have no competitors
