[Verse 1]
Dude tell me, Ha ha haI think the effect of the repeated 'ah, ah, ah' is supposed to be mocking (no aspirated 'h' in French
You think you’re better than me? Ha ha ha
Pour me a drink and sit down, Ha ha ha
I’ve got to explain, you’re not in my league, Ha ha ha
Listen to me, Ha ha ha
Hey, you know what? Ha ha ha
Rap’s gonna be my bitch1, Ha ha ha
I’m on board with all my crew, Ha ha ha
The blood is hot, the heart is cold, Ha ha ha
You’re just the prey, Ha ha ha
That’s the law, Ha ha ha
We talk and you bark, Ha ha ha
Dark thoughts lighten my voice, Ha ha ha
Everything for gain and nothing for you, Ha ha ha
You’ve got to see, Ha ha ha
Shut your mouth, Ha ha ha
[Pre-chorus]
You think you’re better than me? Ha ha ha
Pour me a drink and sit down, Ha ha ha
I’ve got to explain, you’re not in my league, Ha ha ha
Listen to me, Ha ha ha
[Chorus]
If you think you can be like us: no that’s not the idea
You think you can be the best but no one’s signed you off2
Competition, on your knees: yeah, that’s the idea
You think you can be the best but no one’s signed you off
Signed you off, signed you off, no one’s signed you off
Signed you off, signed you off, no one’s signed you off
Signed you off, signed you off, no one’s signed you off
Signed you off, signed you off, no one here’s signed you off
[Verse 2]
I want mikes on my fingers
Gold on the end of my fingers
I won’t stop till I get it
I want to be a mummy again3
We don’t stop
What’s up guys, Ha ha ha
We’re partying tonight or what? Ha ha ha
In our hood we get lit, Ha ha ha
Keep a lookout if the pigs4 go pa-a-ast
You don’t know, Ha ha ha
They’re basta-a-ards
[Pre-chorus]
You think you’re better than me? Ha ha ha
Pour me a drink and sit down, Ha ha ha
I’ve got to explain, you’re not in my league, Ha ha ha
Listen to me, Ha ha ha
[Chorus]
If you think you can be like us: no that’s not the idea
You think you can be the best but no one’s signed you off
Competition, on your knees: yeah, that’s the idea
You think you can be the best but no one’s signed you off
Signed you off, signed you off, no one’s signed you off
Signed you off, signed you off, no one’s signed you off
Signed you off, signed you off, no one’s signed you off
Signed you off, signed you off, no one here’s signed you off
[Bridge]
You like to talk about people, you’re full of bla-bla-bla
Just stories you invent and swear on daddy’s life
You like to talk about people, you’re full of bla-bla-bla
Just stories you invent and swear on daddy’s life
[Chorus]
If you think you can be like us: no that’s not the idea
You think you can be the best but no one’s signed you off
Competition, on your knees: yeah, that’s the idea
You think you can be the best but no one’s signed you off
Signed you off, signed you off, no one’s signed you off
Signed you off, signed you off, no one’s signed you off
Signed you off, signed you off, no one’s signed you off
Signed you off, signed you off, no one here’s signed you off
