Refrain: Bouboukalakala a dit que! (bis) Tu danses comme le serpent Tu te tortilles et tu t’enroules Tu danses comme le lion Tu te secoues et tu bondis Tu danses comme le crocodile Tu rampes et tu nages Tu danses comme la poule Tu bats des ailes et tu picores Tu danses comme la girafe Tu cours et tu allonges le cou Tu danses comme l’éléphant Tu marches et tu te balances Tu danses comme les enfants Tu fais une ronde et tu sautilles | |
