Afanana
Marcel et son orchestre Lyrics

The lyrics to Marcel et son orchestre's song Afanana are a depiction of a wild party scene where the characters meet two individuals named Afric Simone and Garnier Simone, with whom they smoke marijuana and end up being completely inebriated, or as the lyrics state, "complètement Stone." The name Afric Simone is derived from the South African singer and musician of the same name, who was popular in the 1970s. The lyrics may be a reference to the musician's own wild reputation.

The second character introduced in the song is Garnier Simone, who is described as "bonne," meaning attractive or good-looking. The phrase "C'est toujours comme ça" meaning "it's always like that" is repeated throughout the song, perhaps depicting a sense of recklessness and unpredictability. The lyrics mention that they "put themselves at three," possibly referring to a threesome, further emphasizing the wild nature of the party scene.

The chorus repeats the phrase "Elle est bonne," referring to Garnier Simone's attractiveness. The song is upbeat and energetic, with a fast-paced tempo, reflecting the wild and frenzied atmosphere of the party.
