in portuguese, i just came across “por que o vírus da gripe não tem amigos? porque ele é uma má influenza”
translation: “why does the flu virus have no friends? because it’s a bad influenza!”(Influence)
i think it could work in english but sounds better in portuguese.
There are several versions of these kinds of puns in German, one version:
Wenn Grillen Grillen grillen, grillen Grillen Grillen.
When crickets barbecue crickets, then crickets are barbecuing crickets.
