Follies movie - AH, PAREE! lyrics

rate me

<br>

SOLANGE:<br>

New York has neon, Berlin has bars,<br>

But ah! Paree!<br>

Shanghai has silk and Madrid guitars.<br>

But ah! Paree!In Cairo you find bizarre bazaars.<br>

In London "pip! pip!" you sip tea.<br>

But when it comes to love.<br>

None of the above<br>

Compares, compris?<br>

So if it's making love<br>

That rou're thinking of,<br>

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! Paree!<br>

I have seen the ruins of Rome,<br>

I've been in the igloos of Nome.<br>

I have gone to Moscow. it's very gay--<br>

Well, anyway.<br>

On the first of May.<br>

I have seen Rangoon and Soho,<br>

And I like them more than so-so.<br>

But when there's a moon.<br>

Goodbye, Rangoon--<br>

Hello. Montmartre, hello!<br>

Peking has rickshaws, New Orleans jazz.<br>

But ah! Paree!<br>

Beirut has sunshine -- that's all it has,<br>

But ah! Paree!<br>

Constantinople has Turkish baths<br>

And Athens that lovely debris.<br>

Carlsbad may have a spa.<br>

But for ooh-la-la,<br>

You come with me!<br>

Carlsbad is where you're cured<br>

After you have toured<br>

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! Paree!<br>

<br>
