The music itself usually involves the repeating of an incredibly catchy refrain with melodic rap on top, with influences on electronic rock and reggae. The lyrics of the songs tend to be about drug use. The band's biggest hit Mangez Moi (Eat Me) is about psychedelic mushrooms. OCB was another of the band's hits, and it is about the rolling papers made by that brand. The endgame videoclip in the game MDK is their song Non Non Rien N'a Changé (No No Nothing Has Changed) from the album Paniac.
Prom'nons Nous
Billy Ze Kick Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ah prom'nons nous dans les bois
Pendant que le loup n'y est pas
Plus de bois plus de loup
Pourtant je les entends hurler
Yaouh Yaouh Yaouh !!!
Ya a a a ouh ouh!
Moins un - Moins deux
Ce qu'on est bien à se promener
A écouter les sirènes hurler
Et les bonnes gens tu les entends ronfler
YEAH YEAH YEAH EAH EAH!
A cloche-pied je me ballade
Et je vois le ciel découpé
Bleu marine par les buildings
C'est bon hum le vertige
Ah je fourmille entre mes quilles
Hum Hum
La rue est un aéroport
Je me repère au réverbère
Au mouvement clignotant
A la perspective des luminaires
Sur l'asphalte je me sens
Téléguidé je n'arrive pas à me rappeler
Eh si eh
Mère-grand que tu as de grandes dents !
C'est pour mieux te manger mon enfant
YEAH YEAH YEAH EAH EAH!
GA GA GA GA!!!
Prom'nons nous sur les toits
Tout pendant qu'il ne pleut pas
J'ai envie de toi
Avec toi
Ben où ça
Ben sur les toits
Ce qu'on est bien à se promener
A écouter les sirènes hurler
Et les bonnes gens tu les entends ronfler
