Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Dégaine by Aya Nakamura from French to English.

Intro

Ti-di-di-di-di

I saw how you looked at me

My charm worked

We'll see, see who'll make the first move

Anyway, it won't be me

I was told you're dangerous

But you're cute

Him, he's so my thing, right?

He'll bring me trouble, I know

Me, I like that, you know

When it's spicy

You don't see the others anymore

When I'm around

My curves have you spellbound

You don't give a damn about the others

You tell me, give me a hug

My curves have you spellbound

Model figure, model, effortless

You loved the swag, loved the swag

Model, model, effortlessly

Check the swag, check the swag

And if it shines, I can't explain it to you

Check the swag

Model, model, effortlessly

You loved the swag, check the swag

I declare a flame

That'll scare the firefighters

I have a pirate's heart

Always on the job site

You know, the money, I know the dangers

Your man dreams of making a milli'

Me, it's been years since I did it

Hello, I got your number

From the Diallo cousin

She told me you've got a dude

But you prefer the a**holes

You'll love to hate me

I'll do you dirty, I'm not gonna respect you

Slalom between your hips

I'm full of charisma

Check the swag, check the swag

Thing in the thing, plenty of spit

Check the swag

We're gonna make a sex tape

Model figure, model, effortless

You loved the swag, loved the swag, yeah

Model, model, effortlessly

Check the swag

And if it shines, I can't explain it to you

Check the swag

Model, model, effortlessly

You loved the swag, check the swag

We know deep down, you lost your mind

You see me, it's cool but no pressure

Yeah, I admit, now I feel the tension

I got your little heart, I set it on fire

He wants to get into my head

I'm shocked

Yeah, you're hooked on me

You want it all, easy

I go step by step, I go step by step

You don't see the others anymore

When I'm around

My curves have you spellbound

You don't give a damn about the others

You tell me, give me a hug

My curves have you spellbound

You're all over me

I don't ask myself questions

You're way too hot for me

You're all over me

Model figure, model, effortless

You loved the swag, loved the swag, yeah

Model, model, effortlessly

Check the swag, check the swag, yeah

And if it shines, I can't explain it to you

Check the swag

Model, model, effortlessly

You loved the swag

Check the swag

SONG MEANING

Aya Nakamura’s “Dégaine” (“swagger” or “vibe” in French slang) is a playful duel of attraction. Over a hypnotic beat, Aya notices a man who gazes at her with equal parts danger and desire. She loves the thrill of a risky romance, teasing that she will not make the first move while flaunting her taille mannequin—a model-like figure she shows off “sans forcer,” effortlessly. The chorus repeats té-ma la dégaine (“check out the swagger”), turning her confidence into an addictive hook.

When Belgian rapper Damso jumps in, the tension skyrockets. He brags about wealth, charisma and the chaos he might bring, promising both passion and problems. Their verses swap taunts and compliments, creating a spicy cat-and-mouse game where neither wants to lose control. Beneath the flashy lyrics lies a message of self-assurance: own your look, embrace the heat and enjoy the dance of flirtation with anyone bold enough to step up.
