A Look at the lyrics from a section of the song. Fill in the gaps using
the words in the box. Each missing word rhymes with the word in bold
above it.
y’a y’a un poisson
qui tourne, tourne en rond y’a = il y a
le poisson se dit
ah je m’ennuie ici
je serai beaucoup mieux
et bien plus heureux
au fond de la mer
avec ma grand-mere
que dans ce bocal
où je me sens mal
que sur cette table
bien inconfortable
que dans cette chambre
de janvier à decembre
que dans cette maison
qui sent le savon
This activity features some new words, but use your knowledge of French pronunciation to guess how they might sound.
For example, –t on the end of a word is usually silent, so se dit rhymes with ici.
Look for word endings that are spelled the same – this is a clue that they will sound similar.
Do not worry if you do not understand the whole text.
