Just got back from |
|
Paris, France |
|
All they do is sing and dance |
|
All they've got there is romance |
|
What a tragedy |
|
Every boulevard has lovers |
|
Every lover's in a trance |
|
The poor people of |
|
PareeI feel sorry for the |
|
FrenchEvery guy has got a wench |
|
Every couple's got a bench |
|
Kissing shamelessly |
|
Night and day they're making music |
|
While they're making love in |
|
FrenchThe poor people of |
|
PareeMilk or water from the sink |
|
Make a true |
|
Parisian shrink |
|
Wine is all he'll ever drink |
|
And it worries me |
|
For with wine as cheap as water |
|
Oh, it makes one stop and think |
|
The poor people of |
|

|
PierreHad the craziest affair |
|
And the day they parted there |
|
He cried bitterly |
|
Pierre was there to bid her farewell |
|
But he brought his new girl, |
|
ClaireThe poor people of |
|
PareeSo don't go to |
|
Paris, France |
|
Not unless you like to dance |
|
Not unless you want romance |
|
Like those poor inhabitants of |
