English toc toc searches are about a French knock-knock party song: "Toc toc" by Patrick Sébastien is a playful tune whose chorus asks who is at the door, and you do not need to understand French to do the dance. We do not print the lyrics or an English translation, because they are protected by copyright. Here is what we can say.
Why this page has no lyrics
People often search for "toc toc english lyrics" or "toc toc patrick sebastien english lyrics", and those searches are rising. The words and any translation of them belong to the song's authors and publishers. A translation counts as a reproduction, so we leave both out on purpose. That is a limit, and we would rather say it than give you a poor paraphrase.
What the song is about
"Toc toc" is a party song built around a knock at the door. The chorus asks who is there, the verses are playful nonsense, and the whole thing is made to be shouted along to with a crowd. It is closer to a children's game or a village-dance chant than to a story. If you take away the language, what is left is a beat, a call and a response, and a lot of fun.
What "toc toc" and "Kicékéla" mean
- Toc toc is French for "knock knock", the sound of knuckles on a door. The opening line people search is "Toc toc, on frappe à ma porte", which says someone is knocking at the door.
- Kicékéla is the nickname internet users gave the song, after its chorus. It is a way of spelling "qui c'est qui est là", roughly "who's there". It is a spoken, informal phrase, which is why it looks odd written out.
So the title and the nickname both point at the same idea: someone knocks, and someone asks who it is.
You do not need French for the dance
The dance is a hop on one foot, a fist knocking on an invisible door on the beat, and a deadpan face. The knocking is the only link to the words, and you can see what it means as soon as you see it. That is part of why the clips travelled so easily. For the singer and the release, read the Patrick Sébastien page.
