Swing my cutlass at the tall grass And anything that gets in my way That's my job here, let's be quite clear Working is how I spend my day Scary? Verrry I can instill some fear Owners don't know this is my show I've seen them all disappear / Chorus Who's the boss man? Surely ain't dat Paperman I'm the only boss around / Who's the boss man? Surely ain't dat white man I'm de only boss in town / Creole Qui moun' qui, patron la see' pa blanc la ce moin' Qui moun' qui, patron la see' pa blanc la ce moin' / Chorus Who's the boss man? Surely ain't dat Paperman He be an annoying little gnat / Who's the boss man? Surely ain't dat white man Dis is Hippolyte's habitat / Creole Qui moun' qui, patron la see' pa blanc la ce moin' Qui moun' qui, patron la see' pa blanc la ce moin' / Now you've met me, don't forget me Hippolyte the French handyman But my work waits, please the ingrates They're all a part of my plan / Chorus Who's the boss man? Surely ain't dat Paperman He be an annoying little gnat / Who's the boss man? Surely ain't dat white man Dis is Hippolyte's habitat / Creole Qui moun' qui, patron la see' pa blanc la ce moin' Qui moun' qui, patron la see' pa blanc la ce moin' / There's a place in France where they do the cutlass dance
