That's a pun.
I don't think it can be translated in English.
I'm not sure how well i can explain this either :)
It feeds on the fact that "KA (fourth)" the denominator in ¼ (enka), 2/4 (deka), 3/4 (twaka) is read as "KA" as in "trouble, tèt chaje, etc..." and guess what would 4/4 be? If you guessed "kaka", you're right:
Mezanmi nou nan ka!
Nou ka nan 1/4
Nou ka nan 2/4
Nou ka menm nan 3/4
men si nou nan 4/4, nou chire!
