Hey you Stupids

I worked on my sound

During all those years

Music my passion

Despite all these years of era

Lyrics and productions

In fact nothing has changed

Except your look at me

Since I've been on TV

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me

Tell me, tell me, tell me

Do you think I turned my coat around?

Nothing has changed, neither my friends nor my address

Tell me, tell me, tell me

If in my place, you wouldn't live your dream

Please tell me

I think I'll soon have the level

To make hits without saying a word

Without saying a word, without saying a word

Except hello bunch of noodles

I think I'll soon have the level

To make hits without saying a word

Without saying a word, without saying a word

Except hello bunch of noodles

Businesses, little jobs

To finance the studio

Where were you when Colo

Singing in the neighborhood MJCs?

Now you want to judge

Without really knowing

Big up my crew, my fans

The real ones will recognize themselves

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me

Tell me, tell me, tell me

Do you think I turned my coat around?

Nothing has changed, neither my friends nor my address

Tell me, tell me, tell me

If in my place, you wouldn't live your dream

Please tell me

I think I'll soon have the level

To make hits without saying a word

Without saying a word, without saying a word

Except hello bunch of noodles

I think I'll soon have the level

To make hits without saying a word

Without saying a word, without saying a word

Except hello bunch of noodles

But tell me where have you been all these years?

You allow yourself to judge me

But you don't know where I come from

No you don't know

I think I'll soon have the level

To make hits without saying a word

Without saying a word, without saying a word

Except hello bunch of noodles

I think I'll soon have the level

To make hits without saying a word

Without saying a word, without saying a word

Except hello bunch of noodles

I think I'll soon have the level

To make hits without saying a word

Without saying a word, without saying a word

Except hello bunch of noodles

I think I'll soon have the level

To make hits without saying a word

Without saying a word, without saying a word

Except hello bunch of noodles

Hey you Stupids

Did you like this lyrics translation?

bande de nouilles — bunch of noodles / you idiots

Bande de nouilles literally translates to "bunch of noodles," which sounds quite silly and harmless. However, in French slang, it's an informal and somewhat affectionate way to call someone a "fool" or "idiot."

In the song, Colonel Reyel uses this phrase in a playful yet slightly dismissive way, saying "Coucou bande de nouilles" (Hey there, you idiots). It sets a lighthearted, almost taunting tone, as he addresses those who doubted him or are now judging his success. It's a memorable and uniquely French expression that adds character to the lyrics.

Get ready to meet Colonel Reyel in "Coucou"! This song is a direct message to those who weren't around during his early days but are now quick to judge his success. He starts by saying "Coucou bande de nouilles" [Hello, you noodles!], a playful yet blunt greeting to those fair-weather fans.

Colonel Reyel talks about how he's been working on his music for years, calling it his passion. He asks, "Est-ce que tu penses que j'ai retourné ma veste?" [Do you think I've changed sides?], asserting that nothing has changed about him, his friends, or his home. He challenges listeners, asking if they wouldn't live their dream if they were in his shoes. He even jokes that soon he'll be able to make hits "sans dire un mot / À part coucou bande de nouilles" [without saying a word / Except 'Hello, you noodles!'], which is pretty funny and confident! He also calls out those who are judging him now, asking "T'étais où quand Colo / Chantait dans les MJC de quartier?" [Where were you when Colo / Sang in neighborhood youth centers?]. It's a great song about staying true to yourself despite new fame and critics.
