All-u-met-tes, Petites Allumet-tes,

Allumettes de bois pour la cuisine.

Petites allumettes de bois, petites allumettes de bois.

Fumez la- flambez ici, fumez la- flambez ici,

Ohhhh

All-u-met-tes, petites allumet-tes

Allumettes de bois pour la cuisine.

Sorry. Just had to get that out of my system. 


There's a box of matches in the bathroom and every time I'm in there I see it. 


The English "Kitchen Wood Matches" is under the French "Allumettes de bois pour la cuisine" so all I see is the French line, and as soon as I see it, I have the tune to "Alouette" in my head with the words from the box. Plus a few to round out the song.


I'm better now.

  1. I am quite proud that my crappy Manitoba public school French got me through that one.
