A contribution - I didn't see this in the database. Anyone who spent time as a Boy Scout or Scout Leader in Northern Alberta's Elk Island District will recognize the following tune. For others with access to a Scout Shop in Canada, they sell a tape of campfire songs which includes this version. Unfortunately, I only have the words, not the music, but I do know that it is sung with a lot of minor chords with a Cossack, rather than a French Canadian flavour. ...... enjoy

ALOUETTSKI

(Chorus):

Alouettski, gentille Alouettski.

Alouettski, je te plumerai, Hey!

Je te plumerai la tettski. (Je te plumerai la tettski.)

Et la tettski (Et la tettski)

Alouettski (Alouettski) Ohhhhhhhhhh

(Chorus):

Je te plumerai les yeuxavitch. (Je te plumerai les yeuxavitch.)

Et les yeuxavitch (Et les yeuxavitch)

Et la tettski (Et la tettski)

Alouettski (Alouettski) Ohhhhhhhhhh

(Chorus):

Je te plumerai le nezakoff. (Je te plumerai le nezakoff.)

Et le nezakoff. (Et le nezakoff) etc......

(Chorus):

Je te plumerai la bouchka. (Je te plumerai la bouchka.)

Et la bouchka (Et la bouchka) etc......

(Chorus):

Je te plumerai les knees-a-knock-a-vitch. (Je te plumerai les knees-a-knock-a-vitch.)

Et les knees-a-knock-a-vitch. (Et les knees-a-knock-a-vitch) etc...........

(Chorus):

You reminded me that I remember another parody, which was I think designed to be an English translation. God knows where it came from:

AL O. WETTA

Al O. Wetta

John T. Al O. Wetta

Al O. Wetta

Just a plumber, eh?

Just a plumber eh la tap

Just a plumber eh la tap (etc.)

2) Just a plumber eh la sink

3) Just a plumber eh la bowl

4) Just a plumber eh la trap

5) Just a plumber eh la plunge

6) Just a plumber eh la leak

7) Just a plumber eh la flood

8) All-a-wetta, everything all-wetta, All-a-wetta, just a plumber, eh!!

To really get the good of it, you needed the sounds of flushing and gurgling at various points. Yours, Peter
