Ah! Les Crocodiles
Chansons Enfantines
Ah! The Crocodiles
A crocodile, going off to war
Said goodbye to his little children
Dragging his feet in the dust
He was going to fight the elephants
Ah! The cro, cro, cro, the cro, cro, cro, the crocodiles
On the banks of the Nile, they left, let's not talk about it anymore
He hummed a military march
Chewing the words with big teeth
When he opened his mouth wide
It seemed like you could see his enemies inside
He waved his large tail behind
As if he was already triumphant
The animals in front of his proud look
In the forests, ran away trembling
An elephant appeared: And on the ground
This battle of giants was prepared
But nearby, there was a river
The crocodile jumped into it suddenly
And filled with a salutary fear
He returned to his little children
Our elephant, with a prouder trunk
Then wanted to join in the song
