Every Thursday night you'll find the speakers of French
They discuter in the corner bench
And the printmakers sit in the adjoining booth
Where we keep to ourselves remaining aloof
We're dropping from the eaves in search of a phrase
To impress the other artists quand nous parlons français
Oh, we feel so special printing all day
Dropping fancy phrases like bon à tirer
Yeah, we love our terminology but don't ask me why
When it comes time to parler, je suis un peu shy
It was in the month of May we had un bon idée
We decided it was time to apprendre le français
So we head to the cafe and we sit at the bar
Where we practice our French and print some pochoir
We're a little self-conscious, we're probably too shy
And we know Jean-Pierre's just a regular guy
We'll work up the nerve to approach him someday
But for now we're plenty happy speaking Closet Francais
We're dropping from the eaves in search of a phrase
To impress the other artists quand nous parlons français
Oh, we feel so special printing all day
Dropping fancy phrases like bon à tirer
Yeah, we love our terminology but don't ask me why
When it comes time to parler, je suis un peu shy
