Pif paf pouf
Les Betteraves Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pif paf pouf !
Je suis une grose pétasse
Pif paf pouf !
Ça c'est vraiment la classe
Je ne craind rien ni personne
Paske je suis trop conne
Sous deux tonnes de maquillage
Je ne crains pa l'chaud l'été
Car je suis presqu'à oualpé
Les clopes c'est bon pour le style
Même si ça coute de la maille
Ref:
Moi, j'écoute fun radio (yo!!)
Ya des tubes à gogo (ohoh..)
Je peux m'identifier
À des stars aseptisés
Je ne crains ni lui ni toi (ahah!)
Car dieu m'a donné la fois ("oh my god!!!!")
J'ai des grigris porte bonheur
Comme ophélie winter
I don't wanna see you in the télé
I don't wanna see you in the cinéma
I don't wanna see you in the teu-boi
I don't wanna see you chez moi
I don't wanna see you in the métro
I don't wanna see you à la radio
Ohoh ohoh....
The song "Pif paf pouf" by Les Betteraves is a satirical take on the shallow and superficial aspect of the modern culture. In the song, the singer talks about being a "grose pétasse" (a vulgar term for a promiscuous woman) and how that is cool and trendy. She describes herself as someone who fears nothing and no one because she is "too conne" (too dumb). She claims to be up to date with the latest fashion trends by wearing a ton of makeup but doesn't mind the scorching heat in the summer because she is almost naked. She feels that smoking is fashionable, even though it costs a lot of money. In the chorus, she repeats the lines "Pif paf pouf" which could be interpreted as a sound effect of her superficial lifestyle.
Through the lyrics, the song is mocking the modern culture and the obsession with being trendy rather than focusing on the more important things in life. The singer, although proud of her behavior, comes across as ignorant and shallow. The song satirizes the idea that listening to popular music and following fashion trends could be considered the epitome of coolness.
