Papaoutai Lyrics
Tell me where he’s from
Finally I know where I’m going
Mother says when we search good
We’ll be done looking forever
She says he’s never very far
He goes to work every day
Mother says working is good
Better than being in bad...

It's about him knowing that when he grows up he may be like his dad and not being there for his child but at the same time knowing he can't stay young forever and will have to become a man

Stromae wrote this about his own experience of not having his dad. His dad died when he was young. (Wikipedia)

Papaoetai just means dead where you at. It's all about growing up without a dad and seeing other kids have a great time with their dad
