The Lyrics
About a strange dream I had recently.
French laugh competition, how long can you laugh?
French laugh competition, laugh on their behalf
Laugh like the French people, you might break some glass
Who can laugh the loudest, and win the prize at last
When you applaud at laughs that you don't understand,
Then you seem French,
Competitions are the way
French laugh competition, who will win this time
So long they are laughin', but it seems sublime
That happened in my dream, went on for so long
Wish you could hear them say, hoh hoh hoh hoh
When you compete at laughs that you don't understand,
Then you sound French,
Competitions are the way, yeah, yeah
French laugh competition, nothin' more to say
French laugh competition, the prize is on its way
We have got a winner, and now we are done
Seven hours waiting, it ceased to be fun
When you watch them compete and you leave the next day
Then you suffer,
Competitions aren't the way, no, no, no
French laugh competition, laugh on their behalf
Laugh like the French people, you might break some glass
Who can laugh the loudest, and win the prize at last
When you applaud at laughs that you don't understand,
Then you seem French,
Competitions are the way
French laugh competition, who will win this time
So long they are laughin', but it seems sublime
That happened in my dream, went on for so long
Wish you could hear them say, hoh hoh hoh hoh
When you compete at laughs that you don't understand,
Then you sound French,
Competitions are the way, yeah, yeah
French laugh competition, nothin' more to say
French laugh competition, the prize is on its way
We have got a winner, and now we are done
Seven hours waiting, it ceased to be fun
When you watch them compete and you leave the next day
Then you suffer,
Competitions aren't the way, no, no, no

Aahh...Larr-ree! Theese pear-oh-dee, schee maakes mee, uhh, how you say? Ahh...Laff my ass off...5's ~ ~ ~
delightfully goofy...5s...those french think jerry lewis is funny, so they probably laugh pretty easy
Very Funny! Hey, wait a minute, I'm of the French persuasion! Oh well, 555 anyway.
Thanks Paul, Alvin, and Rick.
Well, seeing as I'm 50% French and I liked this parody, you get three fives and half a laugh.
Thanks Johnny.
nicely done 555
Tres drole aussi.
Thanks Carol and John.
Nice job 555
(SOTM) Follow your dreams, Larry,,,and they will take you somewhere.
Thanks M!key and Agri.
(SOTM) DKTOS - good read.
Thanks Adagio.
(SOTM) That must've been some dream, Larry! Veeery strange, but in a way, compelling. ;-)
Thanks Kristof.
(SOTM) funny idea which you almost, but not quite, pulled off - I was hoping for some more French-language (or sound) laughs, but the pacing was good
SOTM - Maybe it was a frog in the throat.
Thanks Stuart and Peter.
SOTM - Haw haw haw! Fives!
Ditto Stuart's comment. The title is hilarious, as is the concept, but I would have liked the parody to take us into the competition itself, rather than just teasing us with the idea of one. Oh, and it would be cool to have dreams like this - any suggestions?
Thanks YWN and Spaff. Spaff-That really was all that happened in the dream, so couldn't add any more detail.
(SOTM) Weird dream, good parody.
(SOTM) Pretty much what everyone else has said. You have very odd dreams.
"...When I tell a joke, they laugh. 'Haw haw haw haw haw!'"

Thanks Red Ant and Luke.
(SOTM) Voyez above, aaahhh-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA !!!
(SOTM) Still funny.
My favorite line: "Wish you could hear them say, hoh hoh hoh hoh". Because I CAN hear them say, "hoh hoh hoh hoh". And it's pretty damn funny. Totally wacky concept; well done.
SOTM...I am having REALLY bad luck with my "I totally know which OS this parody title is to" intuition tonight. Regardless of the fact that even the title wouldn't pace well at ALL...I clicked on this wanting to sing it to "The Rainbow Connection." I am an idiot.
Anyway...funny stuff, here...lots of smiles.
Anyway...funny stuff, here...lots of smiles.
(SOTM) I don't get it.
Thanks for the comments, everyone.
I won't be much use to ya here as I don't know the OS. I, like Tim, feel like I don't really get it, but rhyme scheme was solid and funny.
(SOTM) Don't really get it, but not sure if i'm supposed to.
Thanks for the comments.
At parties and public places I have a friend that will do a "Random French Laugh" , and everyone will turn to see what the hell that was.
