Un crocodile, s'en allant à la guerre
Disait, au r'voir, à ses petits enfants
Traînant les pieds dans la poussière
Il s'en allait combattr' les éléphants
Ah! Les cro, cro, cro, les cro, cro, cro, les crocodiles
Sur les bords du Nil, ils sont partis, n'en parlons plus
Il fredonnait une marche militaire
Dont il mâchait les mots à grosses dents
Quand il ouvrait la gueule tout entière
On croyait voir ses ennemis dedans
Il agitait sa grande queue à l'arrière
Comm' s'il était d'avance triomphant
Les animaux devant sa mine altière
Dans les forêts, s'enfuyaient tout tremblants
Un éléphant parut: Et sur la terre
Se prépara ce combat de géants
Mais près de là, courait une rivière
Le crocodile s'y jeta subitement
Et tout rempli d'un' crainte salutaire
S'en retourna vers ses petits enfants
Notre éléphant, d'une trompe plus fière
Voulut alors accompagner ce chant
