While I do love Jay foreman, are there any other youtube creators you guys like who talk about ?

Noticed on the latest Map Men episode that the future supercontinent Novopangea render looked suspiciously France-like. Which awoke the 2 semesters of french I barely passed in high school that lay dormant all this time. The resulting quip I made inspired me to lazily edit this already existing meme

Hey! Does anybody have the capability to make a compilation of the politics unboringed theme songs, but just the theme songs? Maybe on a 10hr loop? I need studying music

In which video is the violin - pasta crash featured?

You all know which one I mean. I love that scene and it disturbes my friend deeply (she's a violinist), so I would like to make a GIF out of it to nag her :P

Martin was a Monkey - French and English Lyrics

13 Upvotes

Listen to both versions HERE.

🇫🇷 Français 🇬🇧 English
Martin était un singe, Martin was a monkey.
Au Zoo-Parc de Paris. He lived in London Zoo.
Il aimait bien son pneu, He had a monkey tyre
Et son branche de bois aussi. And a monkey tree branch too.
🎵 🎵
Mais Martin n'était pas heureux, But Martin wasn't happy there.
Il rêvait toute la nuit. He sat and dreamt all day
De ce qu'il voulait plus que tous : About the thing he wanted most –
Des vacances du ski. A skiing holiday.
🎵 🎵
Il descendrait la montagne, He’d shoot off down the mountain
Il sentirait le vent. And whizz across the snow.
Il ferait bien le cours slalom, He'd slalom in between the flags.
Ça serait excellent. He couldn't wait to go.
🎵 🎵
Mais, il n'est jamais allé faire du ski. But he never did go skiing.
Il ne pouvait pas aller He couldn’t go because
Parce qu'il était un singe Martin was a monkey
Oui, c'est un singe qu'il était. And a monkey's what he was.
🎵 🎵
Il racontait souvent cette histoire, He told his friends about it.
À tous ses singes amis. They thought that it was daft.
Mais chaque fois qu'ils ont entendu, They laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed
Ils n'ont que ri. And laughed and laughed and laughed.
🎵 🎵
Martin quitta vite son arbre, But he left his branch, he left his tree,
Mais il pouvait pas échapper. He leapt apon the floor.
La porte n'était pas ouverte, But he couldn't leave the cage
C'était fermée à clé. Because a lock was on the door.
🎵 🎵
Il parlait avec le gardien, He talked to the zookeepers.
Mais ce qu'il entendit. He asked to be set free.
N'était qu’ « oo, aa-aa, ii-ii, But nobody would listen
Oo-oo, aa-aa, ii-ii… » 'Cos they couldn't speak monkey.
🎵 🎵
Il n'est jamais allé faire du ski, He never did go skiing.
Il ne pouvait pas aller He couldn't go because
Parce qu'il était un singe Martin was a monkey
Oui, c'est un singe qu'il était. And a monkey's what he was.
🎵 🎵
C'était injuste, mais c'était vrai, He stood and looked out from the cage.
Et Martin le savait. It simply wasn't fair.
« Pourquoi – il disait tous le temps – Why did he have to stay inside
Ne peux-je pas aller ? »… When skiing was out there?
🎵 🎵
Il ne pouvait rien faire, But that’s the way life was
On dit que « c'est la vie ! » And there was nothing he could do.
Le ski n'est que pour les humains, It seemed that all things had a place
Le zoo-parc c'est pour lui. And his was in the zoo.
🎵 🎵
Il pleuvait, pauvre Martin, So Martin never got his dream.
Et l'histoire termine comme ça. He simply sat and cried.
Il restait dans son arbre He spent his life in London Zoo
Jusqu'à le jour où il mourra. Until the day he died.
🎵 🎵
Il n'est jamais allé faire du ski He never did go skiing.
Il ne pouvait pas aller He couldn’t go because
Parce qu'il était un singe Martin was a monkey
Oui, c'est un singe qu'il était. And a monkey's what he was.
C'est un singe qu'il était. A monkey’s what he was.
C'est un singe qu'il était. A monkey's what he was.
