Chapeau Lyrics in English by Carl Brave, Frah Quintale

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Chapeau by Carl Brave from Italian to English.
Parapara
Parapara
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa
(Ehi) mi sveglio ancora a pezzi
(Hey) I wake up still a mess
Un altro sciopero dei mezzi, ehi
Another public transport strike, hey
Vorrei una Coca e c'è la Pepsi
I'd like a Coke and there's Pepsi
La tua famiglia che mi fa senti' un alieno
Your family makes me feel like an alien
Piedi ammollo scaccio dentro il Trasimeno
Feet soaking, I splash around in Trasimeno
A volte dai fastidio come l'acqua nei calzini
Sometimes you're annoying like water in your socks
E giuro che non rido se mi dici 'Cosa ridi?' (ahahah)
And I swear I won't laugh if you tell me "What are you laughing at?" (ahahah)
Una testata come Spada, eh eh
A headbutt like Spada, eh eh
Mo' fai la brava, eh
Now be good, eh
E sai che c'è?
And you know what?
C'è che se non penso più a niente
It's that if I don't think about anything anymore
Finisco a pensa' sempre a te
I end up always thinking about you
E mi rifletto in un altro quartino di Chardonnay
And I reflect myself in another quarter-liter of Chardonnay
Tu che c'hai la forza di rifarti la vita da zero
You who have the strength to rebuild your life from scratch
Io no, io no (no)
Not me, not me (no)
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
Ehi, ehi
Hey, hey
E quando famo un viaggio mezzo serio, ehi
And when we take a half-serious trip, hey
Non c'è mai nessuno con il cavo aux
There's never anyone with an aux cable
Ladispoli pare Rio De Janeiro, eh
Ladispoli looks like Rio De Janeiro, eh
E quell'attore bravo ha fatto coming out
And that good actor came out
Ci sta lei e devo stare calmo, ohm, eh
She's there and I have to stay calm, ohm, eh
E quel campo scuola era un campo Rom
And that school camp was a Romani camp
L'amico mio mi dice, 'Zio, senti che frio, mannaggia a te'
My friend tells me, "Bro, feel how cold it is, d*mn you"
E sai che c'è?
And you know what?
C'è che se non penso più a niente
It's that if I don't think about anything anymore
Finisco a pensa' sempre a te
I end up always thinking about you
E ti rifletto in un altro quartino di Chardonnay
And I reflect you in another quarter-liter of Chardonnay
Tu che c'hai la forza di rifarti la vita da zero
You who have the strength to rebuild your life from scratch
Io no, io no (no)
Not me, not me (no)
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
Sono di nuovo le sei
It's six o'clock again
E sono ancora in giro senza di lei, ehi
And I'm still out without her, hey
Pensavo fosse tutto ok
I thought everything was okay
Ma preferisco Roma quando ci sei qui tu con me
But I prefer Rome when you're here with me
Ti cerco in fondo a bottiglie di vetro da sessantasei
I look for you at the bottom of sixty-six cl glass bottles
Uh yeah
Uh yeah
Te ne sei andata senza neanche un perché (chissà dove sei? ehi)
You left without even a reason (who knows where you are? hey)
Poi tu mi fumi il cuore come una Lucky Strike
Then you smoke my heart like a Lucky Strike
Palle da bowling su ogni mia storia è uno strike
Bowling balls on every one of my stories is a strike
Sto in giro fatto male come scritte con spray
I'm out messed up like spray-painted writings
Ti preso torna qui sennò poi dove vai?
I got you, come back here, otherwise where will you go?
Mi sei entrata in testa una sera a una festa
You got into my head one night at a party
Eri sbronza, molesta, e da qui non esci più
You were drunk, annoying, and you're not leaving here anymore
Mi faccio a piedi Roma, Milano e anche Brescia ma aspetta
I walk through Rome, Milan, and even Brescia, but wait
Sei l'unica che mi fa stare su
You're the only one who makes me feel up
E sai che c'è?
And you know what?
C'è che se non penso più a niente
It's that if I don't think about anything anymore
Finisco a pensa' sempre a te
I end up always thinking about you
E mi rifletto in un altro quartino di Chardonnay
And I reflect myself in another quarter-liter of Chardonnay
Tu che c'hai la forza di rifarti la vita da zero
You who have the strength to rebuild your life from scratch
Io no, io no
Not me, not me
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau (oh, oh oh oh)
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau (oh, oh oh oh)
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
(Na na na ra na na na, yeah, yeah)
(Na na na ra na na na, yeah, yeah)
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau (la la la la la la, oh oh oh oh)
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau (la la la la la la, oh oh oh oh)
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau (na na na ra na na na)
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau (na na na ra na na na)
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau (na na na ra na na na)
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau (na na na ra na na na)
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau
Chapeau, chapeau, chapeau

ChapeauHat / Kudos

Chapeau literally means "hat" in French, but it's used in Italian as an exclamation to mean "kudos" or "hats off" to someone, expressing admiration or respect for an achievement or quality.

In this song, Carl Brave uses "Chapeau" to acknowledge someone's strength and resilience, specifically the ability to "rifarti la vita da zero" (rebuild your life from scratch). It's an interesting word choice because it's a French loanword commonly used in Italian, adding a touch of sophistication and emphasis to the admiration being expressed.
