His songs are funny and sarcastic. He's a committed artist who rejects freely any form of good taste and political correctness. In his songs he makes fun of poor people, catholicism, poodles and small children who make crappy toys and don't go to school. The great simplicity of orchestration and voice are 100% deliberate.
His style is close to Fatals Picards. This type of songs is a reaction to the French rock scene with its intellectualist lyrics, often dark and depressive.
Et ben t'es con

The lyrics to Didier Super's "Et ben t'es con" is a satirical song that suggests that when our friends or best friends are in trouble, the best way to help them is to let them deal with their problems themselves. Super believes that people should not rely on others to sort out their problems, and that it is important for individuals to become more independent. However, the irony of the song is that even though Super believes in the importance of independence, he sometimes cannot help but call his friends or others out when he thinks they are being stupid. The climax of the song is when he asks Johnny Hallyday if he has ever thought about why his name has become an expression, implying that Hallyday's fame may not have been based on genuine talent.
The song is a satire of French society and its obsession with social norms and how people are defined by their social class. Super highlights the absurdity of these social norms by pointing out various examples of stupidity, such as someone ordering steak and fries when they are a vegetarian, or someone choosing to work in a factory when they could make more money selling drugs. The song is also a commentary on the French culture of complaining about society while doing nothing to change it.
