Orange Duck
Kiemsa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

En plein âge de bière,
il coure les rues de travers.
Bien assoiffé, jamais a sec
bien entamé il pue du bec.
Commence sa grande tournée
pour accroupir du jeunot.
Soigne son pédiré,
et sort la fraiche du manteau.
Il allonge, il arrose, foie déponge,
une cirrose, il prolonge, il propose
jusqu'à l'aube toute les doses,
paye son premier vers
sourire au coin c'est offert
pour finir sa carrière
car c'est son dernier...


Le trionphe d'Orange Duck! (x3)
Le roi des creuvards,
dixite le patron du barre!
Non! Non! Non! Roi des creuvard!
Non! Non! Non! Qui pour le croire?
Non! Non! Non! C'est ce qu'on veut voir!
Tu ne sais pas qui tu fais boire!



Orange Duck fut surpris,
sa puissante annéstésie est inefficace
L'autre est toujours en place.
Les rôles s'inversèrent.
La victime devint tortionnaire.
Il allonge, il arrose, foie d'éponge,
une cirrose, il prolonge, il propose
jusqu'à l'aube toutes les doses,
commence a voir trouble.
Mais Orange Duck lève le coude
pour finir sa carrière
car c'est son dernier...


Le trionphe d'Orange Duck! (x3)
Le roi des creuvards
dixite le patron du barre!

Le trionphe d'Orange Duck! (x3)
Le roi des creuvards
dixite le patron du barre!
Non! Non! Non! Roi des creuvards!
Non! Non! Non! A crever ce soir.



Comme un gros plein de pinard.
Gerber sa dernière histoire,




enterré sous un barre,
pour achever son devoir.

Overall Meaning

The song "Orange Duck" by Kiemsa tells a story of a man nicknamed Orange Duck who frequents bars and consumes alcohol excessively. He is always thirsty, never dry, and he stinks of alcohol. He starts his tour of bars looking for young people to squat with while holding onto his bottle, which he offers to share. He drinks and drinks until dawn, offering every dose, smiling all the while. He pays for his first drink with a smile, a gesture that is returned, but this is also the beginning of the end of his drinking career. Orange Duck is hailed as the king of the creeps by the bar owner. However, Orange Duck's powerful anesthesia fails, and the roles are reversed when the other person becomes the torturer, and Orange Duck becomes the victim. The song ends with Orange Duck's career's end, drunk and throwing up, buried beneath the bar.


Kiemsa's lyrics embody the classic story of excess, consumption, and inevitable downfall, a tale told many times but still resonates with many people. It shows how alcohol can transform the brightest and talented people into hopeless cases who end up losing themselves to the bottle. In contrast, the people who seem to have power over them get to keep their wits and retain control.
