The Lyrics

Michelle, ma belle. . love you,
Please have some wine.
I'll try to talk some Frog to you.
Though I'm tryin',
I'm French fryin'.

Can you understand it,
My nasally sound?
I am no French dandy;
I'm no D'Indy,* I can't sing a round.

Michelle, ma belle. . .love you,
Now I whine,
I whine:

Sont des mots
Qui vont très
Bien ensemble.
Très bien ensemble.
I've got no flair
For French, quite clearly,
And I mumble.

You hear me--
J'ai des billes dans la bouche,
[I've got marbles in my mouth]
Also some wine.

[fade on dialog of French soldiers in "Monty Python & the Holy Grail"]


*French composer Vincent D'Indy (pronounced, more or less, "Dandy," with the accent on the second syllable)

John, now I am sure that we have some kind of quirky physic link; you wrote one about French and so did I--I forgot to enable mine for comments. I remember how much I struggled with French in high school--the looks that teacher gave me; she was a tough one. Good parody!

Thanks, Royce. I also took French in high school, when my brain was more supple. Actually remember some. On the other hand, took a couple of semesters of Spanish, and after a year's hiatus, I remember almost nada.
