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.
Les yeux revolver

Bonjour! (Ta gueule!) Bonjour, c'est Marc Lavoine
Et vous écoutez l'dernier album de Didier Super.
Allez! Un peu spéciale, elle est célibataire
Le visage pâle, les cheveux en arrière et j'aime ça.
Elle se dessine sous des jupes fendues
Tell'ment si femme quand elle sort.
Tell'ment si belle, je l'aime tell'ment si fort.
Elle a les yeux revolver, elle a le regard qui tue.
Elle a tiré la première, m'a touché, c'est foutu.
Elle a les yeux revolver, elle a le regard qui tue.
Elle a tiré la première, m'a touché, c'est foutu.
Youpi! Allez! Son corps s'achève sous des draps inconnus
Et je devine des histoires défendues, et j'aime ça.
Un peu spéciale, elle est célibataire
Le visage pâle, les cheveux en arrière et j'aime ça.
Tell'ment si femme quand elle sort.
Tell'ment si belle, je l'aime tell'ment si fort.
Elle a les yeux revolver, elle a le regard qui tue.
Elle a tiré la première, m'a touché, c'est foutu.
Elle a les yeux revolver, elle a le regard qui tue.
Elle a tiré la première, m'a touché, c'est foutu, c'est foutu, putain!
(Guitare solo)
Youpi! Allez! Son corps s'achève sous des draps inconnus
Et je devine des histoires défendues, et j'aime ça.
Un peu spéciale, elle est célibataire
Le visage pâle, les cheveux en arrière et j'aime ça.
Tell'ment si femme quand elle sort.
Tell'ment si belle, je l'aime tell'ment si fort.
Elle a les yeux revolver, elle a le regard qui tue.
Elle a tiré la première, m'a touché, c'est foutu.
Elle a les yeux revolver, elle a le regard qui tue.
Elle a tiré la première, m'a touché, c'est foutu.
The song "Les Yeux Revolver" by Didier Super, with lyrics by Fabrice Aboulker and Marc Lavoine, is a story about a woman whom the singer finds very attractive, but whom he knows is trouble. He is drawn to her because she is a bit unusual, with a pale face, hair drawn back, and a habit of wearing skirts with slits. He imagines that she has a lot of secrets and maybe even some criminal history. Despite knowing that she is not good for him, he is unable to resist her allure. The song describes the woman as very feminine and beautiful, and the singer is deeply in love with her.
The main refrain of the song is "Elle a les yeux revolver, elle a le regard qui tue" which translates to "She has the revolver eyes, she has a lethal look." This description in French is a metaphor for the woman's seductive power, suggesting that she has the ability to kill with a single glance. In the second verse, the singer alludes to his sexual encounter with the woman, where he connected with her deeply and even more so after being physically intimate. He is bewitched by her but also aware that her power over him is dangerous and he may end up hurt.
Overall, "Les Yeux Revolver" is a story of lust, temptation, and danger. It portrays a man who knows that he is playing with fire by engaging with a woman who is thrilling but ultimately unpredictable and unreliable.
