Comme Justin Bieber devant Metallica
Gecko 5 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Par la musique bien trop forte de mes voisins
Ca fait deux semaines qu'ils enchainent les soirées
Je deviens fou, je les déteste, je vais craquer
Des gars du lycée je me suis fais virer
De mon seul boulot je me suis fait licencier
Je n'ai jamais vraiment eu beaucoup d'amis
Aucune femme ne s'est retrouvée dans mon lit
Seul mon oreiller dort entre mes bras
A tout mes rendez-vous je suis toujours en retard
Dès que je vais à a plage il se met à pleuvoir
Il n'y a jamais d'eau chaude quand je vais me doucher
Quand je suis aux toilettes il n'y a plus de papier
J'me sens comme une tartine sans nutella
Comme Justin Bieber devant Metallica
J'ouvre le frigo il n'y a même plus de confiture
Hier soir je me suis fais volé ma voiture
A vingt-cinq ans je me retrouve sans argent
Je dois retourner habiter chez mes parents
J'me sens comme une tartine sans nutella
Comme Justin Bieber devat Metallica
Les filles dont je rêve ne veulent pas de moi
Seul mon oreiller dort entre mes bras
The song "Comme Justin Bieber devant Metallica" by Gecko 5 talks about the struggles of a young man who faces numerous disappointments in his life. The opening lines show how he is woken up every morning by his neighbor's loud music, which has been going on for two weeks straight. This causes him to become frustrated and resentful towards his neighbors, and it is clear that he is fed up with them.
The song then delves into the singer's personal struggles. He has been fired from his job, kicked out of school, and has no friends or romantic partners. He is always running late for appointments, and whenever he tries to go to the beach, it begins to rain. Additionally, he always runs out of toilet paper, and there is never any hot water when he wants to take a shower. He compares himself to a piece of bread without Nutella (a chocolate spread), seemingly suggesting that he feels plain or unimportant in the grand scheme of things. Moreover, he compares himself to Justin Bieber, a pop star, standing in front of Metallica, a heavy metal band, symbolizing his sense of not fitting in with anyone.
Towards the end of the song, the singer laments that he has been robbed of his car, causing him to lose his mobility and freedom. He has to move back in with his parents, and he feels like he has no money or prospects for the future. He longs for the attention and affection of women, but he admits that he has no luck in that area either, and the only thing he can hold at night is his pillow.
Overall, the song depicts the struggles and frustrations of a young man who feels like he is stuck in a rut and is facing constant disappointment in his life.
