FRENCH HAS BEEN BINNED

Francis Aiken

Original melody: "Like The Wind" - Belgium 1999

Belgium has sung for eternity
Only winning once
Rarely with a chance
Ever

And french is the language is the language they like to use
As anyone can see
It was in "J'aime la vie"
Remember?

But now with the new language laws
Belgium has found a new cause

French is binned
French has been binned
French is binned
And flemish is too!

Now all the people won't understand
The words to their own song
And they can't sing along
Never

English is a new temptation
And I am hopeing that
It won't become old hat
Ever

And I think it's the end
French ain't likely to be used again

French is binned
French has been binned
French is binned
And flemish is too!

[Ocarina music]

And I think it's the end
French ain't likely to be used again

French is binned (Belgium has sung for eternity)
French has been binned (Belgium has sung for eternity)
French is binned (Belgium has sung for eternity)
And flemish is too!
