Aliette learned this song in primary school, when she was around 10 years old. \u2018Quand j\u2019\u00e9tais petit, je n\u2019\u00e9tais tr\u00e8s pas grand\u2019 is a funny little tune, telling the story of a young, naughty boy who wishes to flirt with girls. His mother quickly puts an end to his schemes, exclaiming that he is too young and too small.<\/p>\n\n
