"Dynamite" France Recap

In honor of the Grand Hunter Tradition of making up a song to accompany the trip ("we left Brook and Josh, the first day at Conoco - da na na na na - Just getting some gas, and very anxious to go"), we came up with the following alternate lyrics to the song "Dynamite" by Taio Cruz. Feel free to sing along!


We made our plans plans plans plans
to take our family to France France France France
We only took two pairs of pants pants pants pants
just make sure to wash your hands hands hands hands

And we drove on and on and on
and we drove on and on and on

I wave my hands up in the air sometimes
saying ay-oh, it's Chenonceau!
I like to stay in a chateau at night
and then ay-oh, sun's up so let's go

'Cause we can drive this car
to the left and right
we can see all France
and it's dynamite!

It could rain all day
We couldn't sleep at night
but we had the time
of our very lives

Chateau D'usse was cool cool cool
saw art and ruins like in school
Always looking for some food food food food
Steak frites and Pizza Hut are good good good good

Cause we drove on and on and on
Yeah we drove on and on and on

I wave my hands up in the air sometimes
saying ay-oh, it's Chenonceau!
I like to stay in a chateau at night
and then ay-oh, sun's up so let's go

'Cause we can drive this car
to the left and right
we can see all France
and it's dynamite!

We hit Carcasonne
and it rained all day
Climbed some stairs at Nimes
The gladiator way

Through some lovely landscapes,
Only puked a couple of times.
Up the Eiffel Tower
Maggie was scared. We went to the bathroom
and I I I felt it swaying
and I I I did not want to fall, did not want to fall,

That's why I put my hands in the air

I throw my hands up in the air sometimes
saying ay-oh, it's Chenonceau!
I like to stay in a chateau at night
and then ay-oh, sun's up so let's go

'Cause we can drive this car
to the left and right
we can see all France
and it's dynamite!

Louis the 14th, Marie Antoinette
they're all dead right now
but we won't forget...
FRANCE

  2. Hills and I made it through two verses out loud before Katie cried out "Can you please STOP!" Oh well. She does not appreciate the humor yet I suppose! Loved the song! J&H
