La Condition Masculine
Francis Bebey Lyrics
Tu ne connais pas Sizana
Sizana, c'est ma femme
C'est ma femme puisque nous sommes mariés depuis plus de dix-sept ans maintenant
Elle était très gentille auparavant
Je lui disais "Sizana, donne-moi de l'eau"
Et elle m'apportait de l'eau à boire
De l'eau claire, hein, très bonne!
Je luis disais, "Sizana, fais-ceci"
Et moi j'étais content, je regardais tout ça avec bonheur
Ah, je te dis que Sizana, Sizana, elle était une très bonne épouse auparavant
Seulement, depuis quelques jours, les gens, là
Ils ont apporté ici la condition féminine
Il paraît que là-bas, chez eux, ils ont installé une femme dans un bureau
Pour qu'elle donne des ordres aux hommes
Aïe, tu m'entends des choses pareilles?
Et depuis, toutes les femmes de notre pays parlent de la condition féminine
Maintenant je dis à Sizana "donne-moi de l'eau"
Elle répond seulement que, la condition féminine, euh
Il faut que j'aille chercher l'eau moi-même
Je lui dis "Sizana, donne-moi à manger, j'ai faim"
Elle ne m'écoute même pas, eh!
Elle me parle seulement de la condition féminine
Bref, il faut te dire que ma condition masculine est devenue très malheureuse ici
Alors j'ai dit à Sizana
"Écoute, moi je ne connais qu'une seule condition féminine
La femme obéit à son mari, elle lui fait à manger, elle lui fait des enfants
Voilà tout"
Tu sais que Sizana s'est fâchée?
Elle est venue me parler à haute voix!
Comme si elle était un homme!
Moi je l'ai battue hein!
Elle a crié pour appeler tout le village
Moi je lui dis seulement "ne crie pas, ne crie pas, hein
Tu me parles toujours de la condition féminine
Alors, moi aussi je vais te montrer la condition masculine aujourd'hui
La condition féminine, tous les jours, tous les jours tu me dis, la condition féminine
Moi je te donne seulement la condition masucline
Hé, dis donc, la condition féminine
Est-ce que c'est même plus grand que la condition masculine?

In the early 1960s, Bebey moved to France and started work in the arts, establishing himself as a musician, sculptor, and writer. His most popular novel was Agatha Moudio's Son. His writing and music often cross-fertilised, and he performed a song by that name, as well (Agatha). He also worked as a consultant for UNESCO.
Bebey released his first album in 1969. His music was primarily guitar-based, although he integrated traditional African instruments as well. His style was groundbreaking, merging Cameroonian makossa with classical guitar, jazz, and pop, in a mix that could be intellectual, humorous, or serious. He sang in Duala, English, and French. Bebey had a strong impact on later performers. For example, he gave Manu Dibango his big break when Dibango came to work for him in Paris. Bebey released more than 20 albums over his career. He died in 2001.
