Dave’s Gone By Song: FRENCH PEOPLE
French people got no reason
French people got no reason to live.
They don’t do no work, yet they’re always on strike
They led a million Africans to their death
Don’t want no French people
Don’t want no snail eaters `round here.
Oh, don’t get me started
Their feelings should not be disregarded
I think they’re retarded
French people got no morals
French people they just quarrel with you
They were the Germans’ bitches in World War II
They got stuck-up noses, and fucked-up teef
They hate Americans, and that’s just fine
Don’t want no frog people
Don’t want no French people `round here.Dave’s Gone By Interview (6/6/2026): CAREY PURCELL
