Une souris verte
qui courait dans l’herbe

A green mouse which ran in the grass …

Je l’attrape par la queue
I catch her by the tail

Je la montre à ces messieurs
I show her to those gentlemen

Ces messieurs me disent
Those gentlemen tell me:

Trempez-la
dans l’huile

Drench her in oil,

Trempez-la
dans l’eau

Soak her in water,

Ça fera un escargot
tout chaud!

That will make a really hot snail!

Etc.

I think this about the French Revolution and the mice are people who disagree with the "Gentlemen", like ring around the rosie which I think is about a disease. When you hear it in french it's so benign.

One mouse = 127 mice in 6 months
