I don't understand the Parisians Making love every time they get a chance I don't understand the Parisians Wasting every lovely night on romance Any time, and under every tree in town They're in session two-by-two It's a crime with all there is to see in town They can't find something else to do I don't understand how Parisians Never tire of walking hand-in-hand But they rave about it and won't live without it I don't understand the Parisians When it's warm they take a carriage ride at night Close their eyes and hug and kiss When it's cold they simple move inside at night Now, there must be more to life than this I don't understand how Parisians Think that love's so miraculous and grand But they rave about it and won't live without it I don't understand the Parisians
