Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

¡ Patang, patang, patang, lé lé lé !
¡ Patang, patang, patang, lé lé lé !

Médecine man, je suis le médecine man,
Et pour les mômes et les hommes,
Les femmes et les hommes,
Je tchache dans le microphone.
Médecine man, la solution qui résonne,
Médecine man, je sens la basse qui cartonne
Médecine man, la guérison j'te la donne,
Médecine man, bien zédo dans le zion,
Le son qui sonne mon ami, moi j'te l'assaisonne,
C'est de la sauce picante amigo, es puro pimentón,
Viens dans mon sound, tu verras c'que je confectionne,
Les Dj's tu verras, font monter la pression !

Come on da mike Sergent Garcia, come on da mike DJ,
Je suis dans la danza, je suis dans la partie,
Come on da mike Sergent Garcia, j'te donne la solution,
Car là derrière le micro, je suis une vraie bombe à neutrons,
Come on da mike Sergent Garcia, come on da mike DJ,
Quand je toaste dans le micro,
Les petits et les grands me prêtent attention
Come on da mike Sergent Garcia, come on da mike DJ,

Car moi le shaman M.C. je guéris sur la version.

Ay dotorcito, me encuentro muy malito,
Me duele la cabeza, me duele el corazón.
Ay dotorcito, me encuentro muy malito,
Me duele la cabeza, me duele el corazón.

Une bonne dose de boom bass et tu montes le son,
A base de potion magique le Sergent donne des frissons,
Car moi le shaman M.C. je propage les versions,
J'anéantis le stress avec de la bonne vibration,
Et pour que tous les posses déposent sans condition,
Tous les guns, toutes les lames et que baissent les tensions
J'anéantis le stress avec de la bonne vibration,
Dans la danza, tous les posses vont changer la donne.





Patanka, Matanka, Watanka, es bueno pa'ti !
