Bonjour, Paris

I want to step out
Down the Champs-Elysees
From the Arch of Triumpeh
To the Petit Palais
That's for me
Bonjour, Paris!

I want to wander
Through the Saint-Honor
Do some window shopping
In the Rue de la Paix
That's for me
Bonjour, Paris!

I want to see the den of thinking men
Like Jean-Paul Sartre
I must philosophise with all the guys
Around Montmartre and Montparnasse

I'm strictly (a) tourist
But I couldn't care less
When they parlez-vous me
Then I gotta confess
That's for me
Bonjour, Paris!

Light up the Louvre museum
Jazz up the Latin quarter
To show the richest and the poorest
Here it comes
The great American tourist!

This has got to be illegal
What I feel
Tres gay, trs chic
Tres mag-nifique
C'est moi, c'est vous
C'est grand, c'est too tout
It's too good to be true
All the things we can do
You do things to my point of view

We can show you the North or
We can show you the South then
We can show you the West!

Come on and show me the best!

That's for me
Bonjour, Paris!

Bonjour

Bonjour!

That's for me
Bonjour, Paris!

Bonjour!

Living is easy
The livin' is high
All good Americans
Should come here to die

Bonjour!

Is it real?
Am I here?

Am I here?
Is it real?

There's something missing

There's something missing, I know

There's something missing
There's something missing, I know
There's still one place
I've got to go!

Oh!

Oh no!

I thought that you were tired

You said that you were tired

I heard you say that you

You told me you were tired!

You said that you were so exhausted!

You said you needed sleep!

You told that you had to rest

You said you ought to rest

I thought you wanted rest

Is this what you call rest?

I haven't time to rest!

This fussing and fretting
It's getting my goat

Let's all let our hair down
We're in the same boat!

We're strictly tourists
You can titter and jeer
All we want to say is
La Fayette, we are here
On a spree
Bonjour, Paris!
Bonjour!
