Sounds like Alouette. Here's the complete lyrics:

Alouette, gentille Alouette
Alouette, je te plumerai
Je te plumerai la t�te
Je te plumerai la t�te
Et la t�te
Et la t�te
Alouette etc.

Lark, nice Lark (or Lark, lovely Lark)
Lark, I am going to pluck you
I am going to pluck your head,
I am going to pluck your head,
And the head, and the head,
O-o-o-o-oh

I hope my Mum didn't understand what she was singing to me, mind you, when you think about it, a lot of childrens nursery songs have cruel words.
Thanks to all.
