[Intro: Kanye West & Stromae]
Throw your hands in the sky right now
(Alors on danse)
Throw your hands in the sky right now
It's going down

[Verse 1: Kanye West]
Unfortunately for the rest of ya’ll
I’m way better than the best of all
And even though they focus on just the flaws
They still gonna annihilate the festivals
And we still gonna sip Dom Perignon
And still gonna eat the filet mignon
Yeah, yeah, yeah I’ve been known to cover up my eyes
With the Ray Beons

[Refrain: Stromae & Kanye West]
Alors on danse
Alors on danse
Alors on danse
Alors on, throw your hands in the sky right now
Alors on

[Verse 2: Kanye West]
Flashing lights, the stress of life
Its way too much to handle in one night
Live this life like there’s no tomorrow
Wake up in Paris with a Russian model
Throw your hands in the sky
If anybody got five dollars in your pocket right now
I call this club Titanic
Why? 'Cause it’s going down

[Refrain: Stromae & Kanye West]
Alors on danse
Alors on danse
Alors on danse
Alors on danse
Alors on chante
Lalalalalala, lalalalalala
Alors on chante
Lalalalalala, lalalalalala
Alors on chante
Throw your hands in the sky right now
Alors on chante
Throw your hands in the sky right now
Et puis seulement quand c'est fini
Alors on danse
Alors on danse
Alors on danse
Alors on danse
Alors on danse

[Verse 4: Gilbere Forte]
Roll call in the club
Life’s a bitch feel her up
She be in my mind like a microchip
I’m ready to blow like nitroglis
Gone gone like a light so trick
I am on some psycho shit
Dance floor every night my bliss
Fed up with the rub don't bite your lip
Bon T.R.S. and pure gold
Max this out in euros
Bartender fill it up till I can’t remember
Feeling hot summer nights in the winter
I’mma better my life till we all sit up
Since we are here we are live
Ye and I make you touch the sky

Paul Van Haver (born 12 March 1985), better known by his stage name Stromae which means Maestro (mae-Stro/Stromae), is a Belgian singer, rapper and songwriter. He is originally from Laeken, in Brussels. He has established himself in both the hip hop and electronic music genres. Stromae came to wide public attention with his song “Alors on danse”, which became a number one in several European countries. In 2013, his sophomore album Racine Carrée was a commercial success.

Stromae was born in Belgium to a Rwandan father and a Flemish mother. His father, a Rwandan architect, was mostly absent during his childhood and was killed during the 1994 Rwandan Genocide. His mother raised him and his four siblings in Brussels, and later in a nearby suburb. She encouraged each of her children to play a sport and an instrument, and Stromae studied percussion. His mother placed him in a Roman Catholic Jesuit school after he failed in the public school system at the age of sixteen. He formed a small rap group with friends while still in school. His early influences included Belgian singer-songwriter Jacques Brel, Cuban son, and Congolese rumba. He did not always feel that he was from Belgium, even though he was raised as a Belgian. This “outsider” image became part of his appeal.
