Song language: English
Poor People Of Paris |
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 Paree |
I feel sorry for the French |
Every 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 French |
The poor people of Paree |
Milk 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 Paree |
Sister met a boy named Pierre |
Had 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, Claire |
The poor people of Paree |
So don’t go to Paris, France |
Not unless you like to dance |
Not unless you want romance |
Like those poor inhabitants of Paree |
