Another known one is "On boit le thé entre amis"("We drink tea among friends").Notes from Jean Philippe Matton:(+) Words "éclaxe", "voraxe" and "contraxes" don't exist; real words are"s'éclate", "vorace" and "contrats", they have been changed to sound likeAnimaniacs."Y'a" = abbreviation for "il y a" = There is (are).(1) "Nous c'est Yakko et Wakko"Yes, this line is quite special. It's spoken French but it's not an error.It's a repetitive structure, sort of insistent turn of phrase.Correct French : "Nous sommes Yakko et Wakko"= We are Yakko and WakkoSpoken French : "Nous, c'est [se] Yakko et Wakko"= Us, We are Yakko and Wakko (Mmm, meaningless I suppose)I write a comma because there's no relation between "Nous" and "c'est".In the same way, young children often say "Moi, je suis plus fort, nanana!!""Moi" and "Je" designates the same person; it's redundant.Translation:It's time for AnimaniacsWe're disjointed (slang for crazy) to the maxBe cool, be relaxedOn laughter there's no taxWe're AnimaniacsWe're Yakko and WakkoI'm Dot, their little sisterTo cheer up the studio, we played the part of troublemakersBecause it wasn't likedThey locked up the WarnersWe ran away and here we are for your greatest happinessWe're AnimaniacsDot charms you; Yakko bursts (out laughing)Wakko is super-voraciousAnd Bill Clinton plays the saxWe're Animaniacs!There are Minus and CortexWho want to run the UniverseThe pigeons are overzealousRififi has a fit of piqueToubeau pursues MindyRita declaims a verseThe authors flipped, we tossed their scripts and it's hopelessWe're AnimaniacsWe've signed contractsOur madness makes you disorderedFollow us on our escapadesAnimaniWho sow discordWho have strange mannersAnimaniacsWe're laughing to the maxTranscribed and translated by Jean Philippe Matton, Mike Farren, Ron O'Dell and Brendan Dunn
