The Game
Eat Dr. Ape Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Ladies and gentlemen
May I have your attention please ?
We gonna play the game of the year
So put your hands up in the air and get ready to jump !
If you wanna play a game
Put your hands up in the air
And jump, jump, jump
If you wanna play a game
Put your hands up in the air
And jump, jump, jump
If you wanna play a game
Put your hands up in the air
And jump, jump, jump
If you wanna play a game
Put your hands up in the air
And jump !
Haut les cœurs les amis, ôtez vos tristes mines
L'heure est enfin venue de relever l'échine
Venez sur la piste, retirez vos ballerines
Quand la musique taquine, personne ne badine
Essuyez vos narines, finissez vos chopines
La partie qui commence s'annonce divine
C'est un jeu très simple qui brûle les toxines
Ça fait remuer les frangines, à s'faire péter l'lifting
Okay, let's do it once again
So shake your head, move your butt
And get ready to jump !
If you wanna play a game
Put your hands up in the air
And jump, jump, jump
If you wanna play a game
Put your hands up in the air
And jump, jump, jump
If you wanna play a game
Put your hands up in the air
And jump, jump, jump
If you wanna play a game
Put your hands up in the air
And jump !
C'est pas une bourrée auvergnate
Un menuet pour technocrates
Dans cette danse de primate tout le monde se donne la patte
C'est du fun en tabarnak
Écoute ma tactique, c'est une ruse fantastique,
Une méthode infaillible, une pratique thérapeutique
Contre les types acariâtres et les caïds neurasthéniques
A tous les coups je marque, à tous les coups t'abdiques
Lève les bras en l'air, inutile de résister
C'est pas une danse acrobatique difficile à décrypter
Sur ce son qui libère les esprits étriqués
Balance ta croupe légère tout à coup décrispée
Ahahah, are you tired buddy ?
Because it's not over at all !
So open your ears, shut up your brain
Let's go nuts and get ready to jump !
If you wanna play a game
Put your hands up in the air
And jump, jump, jump
If you wanna play a game
Put your hands up in the air
And jump, jump, jump
If you wanna play a game
Put your hands up in the air
And jump, jump, jump
If you wanna play a game




Put your hands up in the air
And jump !
