French lyrics :
Dites-moi d'où il vient
Enfin je saurai où je vais
Maman dit que lorsqu'on cherche bien
On finit toujours par trouver
Elle dit qu'il n'est jamais très loin
Qu'il part très souvent travailler
Maman dit "travailler c'est bien"
Bien mieux qu'être mal accompagné
Pas vrai ?
Où est ton papa ?
Dis-moi où est ton papa ?
Sans même devoir lui parler
Il sait ce qui ne va pas
Ah sacré papa
Dis-moi où es-tu caché ?
Ça doit, faire au moins mille fois que j'ai
Compté mes doigts
Où t'es, papaoutai ?
Où t'es, papaoutai ?
Où t'es, papaoutai ?
Où t'es, où t'es où, papaoutai ?
Quoi, qu'on y croit ou pas
Y aura bien un jour où on y croira plus
Un jour ou l'autre on sera tous papa
Et d'un jour à l'autre on aura disparu
Serons-nous détestables ?
Serons-nous admirables ?
Des géniteurs ou des génies ?
Dites-nous qui donne naissance aux irresponsables ?
Ah dites-nous qui, tient
Tout le monde sait comment on fait les bébés
Mais personne sait comment on fait des papas
Monsieur Je-sais-tout en aurait hérité, c'est ça
Faut l'sucer d'son pouce ou quoi ?
Dites-nous où c'est caché, ça doit
Faire au moins mille fois qu'on a, bouffé nos doigts

English lyrics :
Tell me where it's from
Finally i'd be where i want
Mother says when we search good
We'll be done looking forever
She says he is never very far
he goes to work every day
Mother says working is good
Better than being in bad company
isn't it?
Where are you, papa?
Tell me, where are you papa?
Without even talking to him,
he knows what he did wrong.
It's holy papa,
Tell me where are you broken!
It must...
I have at least one thousand times, I
Counted my fingers
Hé!
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you, are you, where papa, are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you, are you, where papa, are you?
Even, if we believe it or not
There'll be a day we'll believe it no more
A day or another, we'll be complete papa
And one day or the other we'll be going away
Will we be hateful?
Will we be admirable?
Broodstock or geniuses
Tell us who gave
responsibility without caring!
Ah tell us who has diarrhea
Everyone knows
how to raise a child
But no one knows
How to raise a father
Mister i know it all,
We have inherited, that's it.
Sucking his thumb too much or what?
Tell us where it's broken,
It must...
be at least one thousand times we have
eaten our fingers
Hé!
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you, are you, where papa, are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you, are you, where papa, are you?
Where are you, papa?
Tell me, where are you papa?
Without even talking to him,
he knows what he did wrong.
It's holy papa,
Tell me where are you broken!
It must...
I have at least one thousand times, I
Counted my fingers
Hé!
Where are you, papa?
Tell me, where are you papa?
Without even talking to him,
he knows what he did wrong.
It's holy papa,
Tell me where are you broken!
It must...
I have at least one thousand times, I
Counted my fingers
Hé!
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you, are you, where papa, are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you? Pa, where are you?
Where are you, are you, where papa, are you?

Arabic lyrics
تقول امي ان العمل افضل من الصحبة السيئة .. أليس صحيحا ؟!
أين اباك ؟.. قل لي اين اباك ؟
من دون ان تتكلم معه يعرف ما الخطب
ابي المقدس ! قل لي اين تختبئ !
ربما .. احصيت اصابعي اكثر من الف مرة
اين .. اين انت ابي ؟
ان كنا مؤمنين او غير مؤمنين .
سيأتي يوم لن نؤمن به بعد
يوما ما سنصبح كلنا اباء .. و يوما ما سنختفي عن هذه الدنيا
هل سنصبح منبوذين ؟ هل سنصبح محبوبين ؟
قطعان تفريغ أم عبافرة ؟
قولوا لي من اين يأتي بعديمي المسؤولية على هذه الحياة
قولوا لي من يسيطر على هذا العالم ..
الكل يعرف كيف تربي طفلا لكن لا احد يعرف كيف تربي أبا !
سيدي ، اعرف كل شيء لقد ورثنا كل ذلك ..
يتصرف كالاطفال ام ماذا ؟
ابي المقدس ! قل لي اين تختبئ !
ربما .. احصيت اصابعي اكثر من الف مرة
اين .. اين انت ابي ؟
اين اباك ؟ قل لي اين اباك ؟
من دون ان تتكلم معه يعرف ما الخطب
ابي المقدس ! قل لي اين تختبئ !
ربما .. احصيت اصابعي اكثر من الف مرة
اين اباك ؟ .. قل لي اين اباك ؟
من دون ان تتكلم معه يعرف ما الخطب
ابي المقدس ! قل لي اين تختبئ !
ربما .. احصيت اصابعي اكثر من الف مرة
اين .. اين انت ابي ؟
