Tonton Macoute Lyrics

Al Stewart Tonton Macoute

It's just Tonton It's just Tonton Macoute

Idi Amin Dada slowly going gaga Some say it's the yaya decay Country's going broker - but Idi he's a joker You'd better just stay out of his way

Anything you say that's not right, you're floating in the river at night It's just Tonton

It's just Tonton It's just Tonton Macoute

Papa had the voodoo to bring you down and cool you Idi learned the lesson OK From Neo to Stalin, Froward to Mussolini They've always had to have it their way

But you can't make political pie, with such hypocritical lie It's just Tonton It's just Tonton It's just Tonton It's just Tonton Macoute It's just Tonton Macoute
