English[edit]

Everyone is plotting against me
They're muttering behind me; I smell a scam
Donkey Kong and Bluster, working together
How naïve do they think I am?

No one's going to make a monkey out of me
No one gets this diabolical sipping tea
I'm the rightful ruler, anyone can see
No one's going to make a monkey out of me

They must be building a top secret weapon
Mounting an army as fast as they can
The nerve of those two impudent apes
What kind of fool do they think I am!?

I'm hearing voices in my head - what should I do!?
I've got to break this rebellious plot in two
They're working on counter-intelligence, after all
What kind of intelligence do apes have in brains that small!?

No one's going to make a monkey out of me
No one gets this diabolical sipping tea
I'm the rightful ruler, anyone can see
No one's going to make a monkey out of me!

French lyrics Translation

Tout le monde complote contre moi
Ils murmurent dans mon dos et ça me rend nerveux
Donkey Kong et Bluster manigancent ensemble
Ils me prennent pour un imbécile

Je ne les laisserai pas me ridiculiser
On ne devient pas aussi méchant en mangeant des bananes
Je suis, on l'a compris, un dictateur né
Je ne tolèrerai pas de passer pour un âne

Ils doivent fabriquer une arme ultra-secrète
Monter une armée aussi vite qu'ils le peuvent
Ces deux gorilles ne manquent pas de culot
Ils me prennent vraiment pour un imbécile

J'ai dans la tête des voix étranges – qu'est-ce que je dois faire ?
Elles me disent d'anéantir mes adversaires
Que je dois briser cet esprit de rebellion
Après tout, il sera amusant que tout cela finisse dans une explosion

Je ne les laisserai pas me ridiculiser
On ne devient pas aussi méchant en mangeant des bananes
Je suis, on l'a compris, un dictateur né
Je ne tolèrerai pas de passer pour un âne

Everyone is plotting against me
They're whispering behind my back and it's making me nervous
Donkey Kong and Bluster are scheming together
They think I'm a fool

I won't let them make a fool of me
You don't get this mean eating bananas
I am, as you can see, a born dictator
I won't stand for being made to look like a fool

They must be building a top-secret weapon
Mounting an army as fast as they can
Those two gorillas have some nerve
They really think I'm a fool

I hear strange voices in my head – what should I do?
They tell me to annihilate my enemies
That I must crush this spirit of rebellion
After all, it will be fun if it all ends in an explosion

I won't let them make a fool of me
You don't get this mean eating bananas
I am, as you can see, a born dictator
I won't stand for being made to look like a fool

Italian lyrics Translation

Tutti quanti complottano contro di me
So che tramano qualcosa e mi parlano alle spalle, c'è puzza di bruciato
Donkey Kong e Bluster, quelle insulse scimmie
Hanno un piano in mente, perché pensano che sia così demente?

Nessuno può trattarmi come un allocco
Nessuno potrai mai prendersi gioco di me con un semplice complotto
Chiunque può vederlo, sono un legittimo sovrano
Nessuno può prendersi gioco di me, è questo l'arcano

Stanno costruendo un'arma segreta
Stanno mettendo su un esercito alla velocità della luce
Che nervi, quelle due scimmie impertinenti
Perché credono che sia così stupido?

Delle voci risuonano nella mia testa - cosa devo fare?
Devo sventare questo attacco ribelle, altrimenti qui ci rimetto la pelle
Qui c'è un piano in corso, devo sventarlo prima che posso
Ma cosa possono mai tramare con quei cervelli così piccoli?

Nessuno può trattarmi come un allocco
Nessuno potrai mai prendersi gioco di me con un complotto
Chiunque può vederlo, sono un legittimo sovrano
Nessuno può prendersi gioco di me, è questo l'arcano

Everyone is plotting against me
I know that they're orchestrating something and talking behind my back, there's the smell of burning
Donkey Kong and Bluster, those inane monkeys
They have a plan in mind, why do they think I'm so demented?

No one can treat me like a fool
No one'll ever be able to make fun of me with a simple scheme
Everyone can see it, I'm a legitimate ruler
No one can make fun of me, this is the mystery

They're building a secret weapon
They're making an army at the speed of light
What a pain, those two impertinent monkeys
Why do they believe I'm so stupid?

Voices ring in my head - what should I do?
I need to foil this rebel attack, otherwise I'll die here
There's an ongoing plan here, I need to foil it while I can
But what ever could they be plotting with such tiny brains?

No one can treat me like a fool
No one'll ever be able to make fun of me with a scheme
Everyone can see it, I'm a legitimate ruler
No one can make fun of me, this is the mystery
