Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Marcel et son orchestre's song "Hey gamin" are fairly simple and contain just a brief dialogue between two characters. The first character, who is referred to as "gamin", is being asked by someone else to play a Rolling Stones song. The gamin responds with a dismissive "ta gueule," which is a French insult that can roughly be translated as "shut up," indicating that he is not interested in playing the song.


Overall, the lyrics seem to be a playful and humorous comment on the idea of musical preferences and the different tastes that people have when it comes to music. The gamin's response to the suggestion to play a Rolling Stones song suggests that he has his own ideas about what kind of music he wants to play, and that he does not feel obligated to cater to someone else's preferences.


In this sense, the song can be read as a celebration of individuality and the importance of following one's own interests and passions. It is also notable that the song is performed by Marcel et son orchestre, a French punk rock band known for their irreverent and satirical approach to music, which adds another layer of humor and subversion to the lyrics.
