Jwé bo difé

Pa jwé bò difé

Playing with Fire

Don't play with fire
We've known for a long time
You shouldn't stay too close to the heat
You're there, you hear, but you don't understand
If you get burned, you'll have to learn
Don't play with fire
We're not leading you astray
Don't play with fire
These are words for you to respect
Don't play with fire
It's dangerous
Don't play with fire
If you don't want to listen, you'll see what happens
Day and night, you'll be burning
But life is not a game
A small fire can make you lose your way
You'll stumble and fall
Don't stay by the fire -----à mmm don't stay
If you don't want to cry, don't weep
Don't stay by the fire ----à ay don't stay
So you won't say you're unlucky
Don't stay by the fire
Don't play with fire
Children listen to adults
Adults listen to children
Don't play with fire
Mm Don't play
If they see you with pink skin patches
Albiplast, Lastoplast, your body bandaged, it's as if
Don't play with fire
If they see you with pink skin patches
Albiplast, Lastoplast, your body bandaged, it's as if
Don't play with fire
Don't stay by the fire!
If they tell you let's go
Say you can't go
Even if you want to go
You mustn't go
Say you can't go
Say you can't go
You don't need to go, mm
Don't stay by the fire!
Wélélélé...
Don't stay by the fire!
If you don't want to get burned
Say you can't go
Take a different path
You mustn't go
Stay at home
Say you can't go
No need to go
You mustn't go
Wélélélé...
Say you can't go
You mustn't go
Say you can't go
You mustn't go...
