Alouette is a popular children's song about plucking a bird. Although it is in French, it is well known among speakers of other languages; in this way it is similar to Frère Jacques. It usually involves audience participation, with the audience echoing every line of each verse after the verse's second line.

Lyrics

Alouette, gentille Alouette
Alouette, je te plumerai
Je te plumerai la tête
(Je te plumerai la tête)
Et la tête
(Et la tête)
Alouette
(Alouette)
O-o-o-oh
Alouette, gentille Alouette
Alouette, je te plumerai
Je te plumerai le bec
(Je te plumerai le bec)
Et le bec
(Et le bec)
Et la tête
(Et la tête)
Alouette
(Alouette)
O-o-o-oh

The song continues in this fashion, with the italicized word (a part of the bird) in each verse being substituted with a new word, with the previous items being recited at the end.
