Étienne

Born and raised in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, Étienne began performing at the young age of nine years old. While attending the University of Windsor, where he graduated with a B.A. in French Language and Literature and a B.Ed., he began composing his first few educational songs while attending Teachers’ College in 1993. His career as an educational performing artist began by accident in February of 1994, when he shared a few songs he had composed with some teaching colleagues at a district school board meeting in Stratford, Ontario. It was at this meeting where he was jokingly crowned with the stage-name “Étienne” (the French translation of his birthname of Steven). Étienne recorded his first album, self-titled “Étienne” that same summer.

 The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com

I come from Canada, ya know,
I come not from Jamaica,
But they know me from all over,
I’m the master conjugator
Comin’ in, comin’ in loud,
With the reggae sound,
Let-a-me tell you ‘bout the verb,
That’ll get your feet up off the ground

REFRAIN:
Sautez, sautez !
Répétez après moi !
Sautez, sautez !
Non, tu n’as pas le choix.
Sautez, sautez !
Bien, il faut le faire !
Sautez, sautez !
Everyone, everywhere!

Oh yeah, man.
Follow me, follow me now, see.

Pick up the phone
Ya know, the one that’s ringing
And take a lesson
From the message I be bringing
Just like any ‘-ER’ verb,
Ya know, it follows the norm,
You will relate, as I conjugate it,
In its singular form

REFRAIN:
Je saute, je saute !
You see, I’m jumping, just like,
Tu sautes, tu sautes !
I got you jumping, now!
Il saute, il saute !
Look! He is jumping now, too!
Elle saute, elle saute !
Over there, she is jumping

Ahh, yes.
The verb ‘SAUTER’ means ‘to jump’.

T-t-t-tell me if you think,
learning this way is fun,
As I take you to the plural,
Meaning: more than one.
While before all that was jumping,
Was ‘he,’ ‘she,’ ‘you,’ and ‘me’ (I)
Well, let me tell you that there’s more,
I mean ‘they,’ ‘you,’ and ‘we’

Ahh, you’ll see
Come sing with me!

REFRAIN:
Nous sautons, nous sautons !
Just look how we are jumping!
Vous sautez, vous sautez !
Oh how you all are jumping!
Ils sautent, ils sautent !
Those guys are really jumping
Elles sautent, elles sautent !
The ladies, too, are jumping!

Ahh, yes.
The verb ‘SAUTER’ means ‘to jump.’

REFRAIN: Sautez, sautez ! ....

It’s all before your eyes,
I’ve laid it out straight.
It be your turn now, my friends,
Take ‘SAUTER’ and conjugate!

REFRAIN: Je saute, je saute ! ...

Are you ready to move on to...

REFRAIN: Nous sautons, nous sautons !

I need not direct,
Or command you anymore,
So let’s keep jumping,
Keep our feet up off the floor

Refrain: Sautons, sautons !
