Horreur ! De noir vêtu, grimaçant sous le masque, Piétinant notre sol tel un vil paillasson, C''est l''étranger qui souille la veuve et la syntaxe ! L''étranger ! Cette putride défécation ! Français ! C''est l''étranger qui passe ! Mais voici qu''arrivant du bout de l''horizon, Au secours de la grammaire et de l''orphelin, Rapide comme l''express, preste comme le son... Quelle est cette silhouette volant là-bas au loin ? C''est lui ! Superdupont qui passe !
