{Refrain} :
Le balayeur balayé
Arrivé comme un sauveur
Il est parti comme un voleur
Je l'avais pourtant prévenu
De la déception de mon peuple
Arrivé comme un héros
Il est reparti à zéro
Je l'avais pourtant prévenu
De la présence des vautours autour
Bye bye
{au Refrain}
Arrivé comme un ami
Il est reparti ennemi
Je l'avais pourtant prévenu
De la déception de mon peuple
Arrivé comme un héros
Il est reparti à zéro
Je l'avais pourtant prévenu
De la déception de mon peuple
Bye bye
{au Refrain}
Allah té dji tora non'non la
Ni lé ko ki kiya ni bé yé
Aba yiri la kima kia bé yé
Ni lé ko ki li ye bla bégné
Aba yiri la ko ité bégné *
Il se croyait le plus malin
Il a eu plus malin que lui
Bye bye
{au Refrain}
Il se croyait le plus intelligent
Il a eu plus intelligent que lui
Il se croyait le plus fort de tous
Il a eu plus fort que lui
Il se croyait le plus grand doubleur
Il a eu le roi des doubleurs
Bye bye
{au Refrain}
