Hah, we have such one too:

Buvons un coup, la serpette est perdue
Mais le manche, mais le manche,
Buvons un coup, la serpette est perdue
Mais le manche est revenu !

(Let's have a drink, the pruning-hook is lost,
But the handle, but the handle
Let's have a drink, the pruning-hook is lost
But the handle just came back !"

So:
Bavazakalasarpataparda
Malamacha, malamacha
Bavazakalasarpataparda
Malamacharavana !

Bevezekeleserpeteperde...
(...)
Buvuzukulusurputupurdu...

With "y", it's getting harder:
Bigrecvigreczigrecligrecsigrecrpigrigrec... well,
anyway, the handle came back, which is the important
thing.
