Okay, this is the first time I've ever been to your blog and I had to share this. I had just read your Frère Jacques post (in my head, didn't say a word out loud) when my 4 year old who was sitting on the floor next to me playing starting singing the song!!! I kid you not! Made the hairs on my neck stand up. I asked him why he was singing that song and he just shrugged and said, "I dunno." Kinda creepy! lol
Ha! Brilliant!
ReplyDeletela drôlerie!
ReplyDeleteMakes perfect sense! :oD
ReplyDeleteBless her - I sang along as I read it!! (Bet her teacher loves those circles above the i's *wink*)
ReplyDeleteI remember having my own version of Frere Jacques too! The 3rd line soon got superseded by "soggy semolina" once I started school. Very sweet x
ReplyDeleteThat is just brilliant.
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty good!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant...great writing!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant and it got me humming along too. Clever sausage

ReplyDeleteOh bless! That is so cute!!
ReplyDeleteI totally got it! Très adorable!
ReplyDeleteAw very cute. Although for some random reason I'm now wanting some Ferrero Rocher...
ReplyDeleteThat is so funny, what a great thing to keep for the future
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I cant believe I got it before I scrolled down and saw your explanation!
ReplyDeleteI love that you've conned your kids into keeping up the random too :oD

ReplyDeleteI was trying to figure out what Vermont had to do with anything.
ReplyDeleteHas anybody ever been there?
And she'll still remember that when she's 60!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant :) I got it instantly, I think it was the only French song I ever (sort of) learnt.
ReplyDeleteI love this!
ReplyDeleteMy kind of French! I remember line 3 as soni-lemon-tina, soni-lemon-Tina though!
ReplyDeleteoui, oui
ReplyDeleteThis is genius! For the dyslexic in me it makes perfect sense :)
