Où Veux-tu Que J'aille

Where Do You Want Me to Go
Where do you want me to go? (repeat)
Why do you want me to leave?
Where do you want me to go?
You burned down my house in Abidjan
Because I'm not from your clan
My grandfather gave you everything
My dad sweated so much
I was born there,
Why do you want me to leave?
Facing the scum!
Where do you want me to go?
Where do you want me to go? (repeat)
Why do you want me to leave?
Where do you want me to go?
I was born on the banks of the Garonne, you see
There's no better resume, there's none
There's no, they say, better pedigree
I had a beautiful striped complexion
Here I am, fallen on the wrong side of the coin
Right into the offense called racial profiling
Where do you want me to go? (repeat)
Why do you want me to leave?
Where do you want me to go? (repeat)
Why do you want me to leave?
For a long time, I was for the law
Go! For our ancestors, the Gauls
I even said to fit in
Alright, let's roll!
Here I am, fallen on the wrong side of the coin,
Right into the offense called racial profiling, so
Where do you want me to go? (repeat)
Why do you want me to leave?
Where do you want me to go? (repeat)
Why do you want me to leave?
We were all born there
Exiled with no other choice
Our grandfathers sacrificed themselves (soldiers!)
Our dads integrated
Even if they call us foreigners
Why do you want us to leave?
Facing the chaos
Where do you want us to go? (repeat)
But where do you want me to go?
Why do you want us to leave?
Where do you want us to go?
Where do you want us to go?
Why do you want me to leave?
Where do you want us to go?
Why do you want me to leave?
Where do you want me to go? (ad libitum)
