歌詞

We were drunk fools in Paris, stumbling on the sidewalk that runs along the Seine, and on the Cathedral all the gargoyles watched us laughing, "Two stupid Americans..." We were at the mercy of this passionate waiter who pulled the corks at the Osterasis Cafe he kept serving us wine we hadn't ordered then he blamed us for the weather, it was cold and rainy - but we raised a glass up to him anyway We did Paris in a day, what would Marie Antionette say? We made a vow on the Champs Elysees that nothing would come between us The Mona Lisa, I said, "She smiles just like she knows me" you said, "She's a woman with nothing to lose - She gathers a crowd around her, then she flirts with perfect strangers, but she'll never take a lover in the Louvre - she will never take a lover in the Louvre..." We did Paris in a Day what would Quasimodo say? Would he stand on top of Notre Dame and throw down tourists to us? a thousand stairs up the Pompadou we were gasping at the view if we tried for Jim Morrison's gravesite too we'd probably have to find a tour bus and man, how do we find a tour bus without finding another day We took the M across the Seine and headed for the Eiffel tower and there the street merchants called us out by name "Cool shades here for the Americans" They said in their finest hipster English and then they told us, "Every Yankee looks the same" I said, "Is it the camera case, or our American grace?" They said, "You all just look the same..." We lit a candle for a ghost in the Notre Dame Cathedral We got lost on the Left Bank looking for a place in which to stay when we told the waiter there what we had done, he said, "Only an American would attempt Paris in a day... Only an American would do Paris in a day..." We did Paris in a day what would Marcel Marceau say? We put up our feet at the Fountain Cafe and toasted the bond between us We drank sherry with an Englishman we caught up like long lost friends under the Arc we watched the sunset end and laughed at the miles that had passed beneath us the miles that passed beneath us You said, "That's kilometres, baby" but I wouldn't let it come between us nothing will come between us nothing will come between us...
