Day: October 18, 2021

Frenchmen are ubiquitous
All over the place is what I mean
Not to be redundant
 
They usually have a quiet friend from the office accompanying them
When they stop by for a drink after work
The quiet guy gives affirmation to whatever the Frenchman should say
The Frenchman looks for this affirmation

We ran into them on St. Patrick’s Day

I don’t like exercise said the Frenchman
None whatsoever
My idea of exercise, he went on,
Is to sit up in the morning when you wake up
Throw back the covers
Swing the legs over the side of the bed
Drop them to the floor and stand up
That’s it he said

You must hate leap year, I said
He smiled at that one a few minutes later
His friend nodded his head, too
I didn’t know if they were slow
Or if I was talking to fast

His wife taught cooking, he said
I thought that was nice

I took down her name and website on a coaster
Then left it behind after we said goodbye

Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, too-ra-loo-ra-li
