Zombi Dupont [English translation]

He was the last

of the uncivilized.

His name was Zombie,

He lived in Australia

In the middle of palm trees,

Without electricity.

When UNESCO said:

"This man is a scandal!

He lives in a slum

And completely naked.

Zombi, come here."

"Oh la la la la la la",

Said the savage.

"You, don't touch me.

I'm very happy like this.

I don't want to change at my age.

I don't need anything more.

Thank you oh thanks a lot."

They grabbed Zombi,

Christened him Dupont,

Paul Henri Louis Léon,

Registered, stamped and vaccinated him

Under the acclamations.

When Unesco said:

"This man is a scandal!

He must be educated

At the communal school.

Zombi, come here."

"Oh la la la la la",

Said the savage.

"You, don't touch me.

I'm very happy like this.

I don't want to change at my age.

I don't need anything more.

Thank you oh thanks a lot."

Zombi learned everything.

Zombi ate it all up

Including the shoes,

The radio, the TV,

The morning paper,

The four hundred and twenty-one.

When Unesco said:

"This man is a scandal!

Go and get your rifle.

The motherland wants you.

Zombi, come here."

"Oh la la la la la",

Said the savage.

" I go back to my home

To live in the woods

The rest of my age.

I need nothing more.

Thank you and goodbye."
