A real favourite of mine is also on the LP "His Songs" and is called 'Peez Oof!'.

Jeremy introduces the song thus:

"When General de Gaule was a younger man he spent some time in Britain; during the war I think it was. His English wasn't so good in those days, but he'd noticed while strolling through the streets of London two little words which the English people used to say to him, particularly the young girls that he was in the habit of winking at. 'Naturalement' he thought to himself, 'Zis picturesque fres is a traditional English gritting to ze foreiner visiting a native shore.' And he went home and wrote this little song."

The song is almost all in French, but there are a couple of lines which go:-

.............. de Cockfosters, a la rue de (?), Paddington, Euston and all line beyond, ce toujour "for Pete's sake peez oof!".

It is particularly amusing when in the background can be heard people calling out peez oof without the French accent.

If there is anyone out there who has the words to this, please, please post them. I'm afraid my French is practically non existent, to I've no chance of transcribing myself.
