ID a snarky French Lullaby, "please just god damn go to sleep already"
January 9, 2022 12:08 AM

All I remember is that it was a man singing in French and each of the verses sounded like him begging in preposterous ways for his baby to go to sleep. I heard it 10 years ago, but it could easily be older. Thanks in advance if you can help me find it! :)

Dors et fais pas chier is the French version.

I would like to suggest Berceuse by Jaques Dutronc where he liltingly lists all the drugs he is taking to try to get to sleep because his baby won't. (Dutronc also wrote the wonderful "Fais pas ci fais pas ça") which is a about all the things we tell kids to do.)

If there’s any possibility you’re confusing the French accent with a German one, you might by thinking of this version of Go the Fuck to Sleep, read by Werner Herzog.

perhaps La Berceuse, by Bénabar ?
