Diner is ready

Flappie

 

Flappie is a song by the Dutch comedian Youp van 't Hek about a rabbit with this name.

 

Flappie, Youp's rabbit, goes missing on Christmas morning 1961. Youp wants to look for Flappie, but his mother stops him and tells him that if he is going to play nicely, he will get a treat. Eventually the whole family goes looking, Youp is just not allowed to enter the bicycle shed. In the evening, Youp's father presents the rabbit as the main course during the Christmas dinner. The next day father is missing, whereupon Youp tells his mother that she is not allowed in the bicycle shed and if she is going to play nicely that she will get a treat.

 

 

In 2020, American singer Todd Rundgren made an English version of the song, translating the lyrics literally.
