Lyrics
Mama Sam
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Quand je te revois, mamma Sam
je retrouve les vraies valeurs...
un si grand coeur, une si belle âme...
qui ne se soucie jamais de l'heure
quand je pense qu'elle était comme moi
issue de ce pays glacial
maintenant qu'elle vit au Kenya
c'est l'africaine occidentale
refrain:
non, je ne connais pas l'afrique (bis choeurs)
aigrie est ma couleur de peau
la vie est une machine à fric
où les afreux n'ont pas d'affros
tous ces jeunes américanisés
nikés de la tête aux pieds
génération très très marquée
Mamma Sam est consternée
A cette époque où faire l'amour
est un danger pour l'humanité
il est indécent d'afficher "Nike"
sur nos vêtements dégénérés
Refrain
pont
Mamma Sam, cette fois, c'est décidé
m'éloigner de Paname me feras le plus grand bien
et si ça se trouve, je ne reviendrais jamais...
je serais le plus blanc-bec de tous les africains
Refrain (x2)
