Résumé

Kamini : Marly-Gomont

…..
Ces petits patelins paumés
Que même la France y sait pas qui sont là chez elle
Les petits patelins paumés que personne ne connaît
Même pas Jean-Pierre Pernaut
Je viens pas de la té-ci
Je viens d'un petit village qui s'appelle Marly Gomont
Alors come on sur le beat un, le beat un, le beat un qui fait la tam tam tam
A Marly Gomont y'a pas de béton, 65 ans la moyenne d'âge dans les environs
Un terrain de tennis, un terrain de basket
Trois jeunes dans le village donc pour jouer c'est pas chouette
Je viens d'un village paumé dans l'Aisne en Picardie facilement
9 95 pour cent de vaches, 5 pour cent d'habitants
Et parmi eux, une seule famille de Noirs
….
