Animal [English translation]

It was before Babel*

Before Cain and Abel*

Animal, animal

We still were black butterflies, lizards

The world was ours

The sand and the bamboo

Animal, animal

We still had nests, dens, manes

"[Refrain]" :

Animal, animal

Where is the good where is the bad

Between the jungle and the stars

Animal, animal

We didn't know a word of lie

Between the algaes and the sponges

Further along the great lakes

All the macaques had lived

Animal, animal

We were iguanas, marabouts, owls

It was before science

Before intelligence

Animal, animal

One day a chimpanzee

Started to talk

"[Refrain]"

Animal, animal

One day a chimpanzee

Started to talk
