Waltz for the Harmattan

The Place Concorde
Discord of the People
Snow in heat
Nostalgia for the Africa
Of my nights
Of Samba Creole
Crooning
Along with Pigalle.
On Boulevard Barbès
The beggar goes nyet, nyet, nyet
On his shoulders
Red Square
Sheep drunk on vodka
Waltzing employers
Without contracts
In Montmartre
Palettes on strike
Drinking all the paint
From the Louvre
Vomits
Before Tutankhamun
Napoleon
Son of Leon the Neapolitan
The obelisk
On its back
Eats
The whole desert
With the pyramids
For dessert
