How about another song from the acappella group Pow Wow? Le Lion est Mort ce Soir (French version of The Lion Sleeps Tonight)
Dans la jungle, terrible jungle
Le lion est mort ce soir
Et les hommes tranquille s'endorment
Le lion est mort ce soir
wiiiihihihi O Wimoweh (x2)
Tout est sage dans le village
Le lion est mort ce soir
Plus de rage, plus de carnage
Le lion est mort ce soir
wiiiihihihi oO Wimoweh O Wimoweh (x8)
L'indomptable, le redoutable
Le lion est mort ce soir
Viens ma belle, viens ma gazelle
Le lion est mort ce soir
wiiiihihihi O Wimoweh O Wimoweh (x8)
Dans la jungle, terrible jungle
Le lion est mort ce soir
Dans la jungle, terrible jungle
Le lion est mort ce soir
O Wimoweh O Wimoweh (x8)

Btw, hubby and I have just spent the last few minutes doing this meme together *all your fault* Guess I'd better start posting it... though darn it, what do I do for 'lion' now?!!
