I Will Pluck You Alouette

Have you ever watched something, that you'd seen when you were young and naive, that upon a tainted adult viewing you grasp a new understanding of the nuances? I've had those moments of "ooooooohhh, wow. I totally didn't catch that the last time I saw this movie." Those little jokes the creators of cartoons throw in, so that parents aren't completely bored to tears when trying to entertain or distract their young offspring.

I had a moment today that reminded me of that feeling.
Apparently, the silly little French song "Alouette" is about the adorable plucking of feathers off of each part of a small lark. Now I'm wishing my 8th grade and college French courses had helped me put two and two together and translated "je te plumerai la tête." I might have then comprehended the head, beak, eye, back and leg de-feathering of a sweet little bird instead of just regurgitating cute syllables strung together into song.
