Here we are in gay Paree Just to see what we can see Or to buy what we can buy Or to try what we can try On the Champs Elysee Or the Rue De La Paix Here is what the French will say
It's only for Americans The midnight life in gay Paree The Frenchman he would never see It's only for Americans The prices in a smart café The Frenchman he would never pay The price that's more Is only for Americans from the USA
Those old Napoleon Brandy labels That recently were made They're not for Frenchmen's tables They're for the Yankee trade
Only for Americans The shops with many real antiques Antiques as old as seven weeks They're only for Americans A bed on which a king made love Which there are several dozens of The French pooh-pooh We sell them to Americans from the USA
There's the Rue De La Paix And the Champs Elysee There are sidewalk cafés Head waiters with trays There's paté de frois gras And sauces and dishes Mon petit manger And all sorts of fishes
There's the Eiffel Tower And the Luc de Bessine For us all these things Are just peachy kean But Here is what the native French will say
It's only for Americans The Frenchmans' food is very plain The fancy sauces with ptomaine Are only for Americans A Frenchman seldom eats the snails With little ulcers on their tails And all that cheese Was made to please Americans from the USA
We like to keep the good relations That nothing must upset We give you decorations The Frenchmen seldom get
Only for Americans Our finest art is in the Louvre The ones the experts don't approve Are only for Americans We keep an artist at the gate To sign the paintings while you wait Before they're dry They're purchased by Americans from the USA
Mon cher, mon ami Qu'est-ce que sais je vous dis Americans from the USA.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
