Lyrics

[00:03.18]
[00:15.29] You talk like Marlene Dietrich
[00:19.13] And you dance like Zizi Jeanmaire
[00:23.15] Your clothes are all made by Balmain
[00:27.25] And there's diamonds and pearls in your hair, yes there are
[00:31.47]
[00:33.39] You live in a fancy apartment
[00:37.56] Off the Boulevard Saint-Michel
[00:41.48] Where you keep your Rolling Stones records
[00:45.62] And a friend of Sacha Distel, yes you do
[00:49.82]
[00:51.71] But where do you go to my lovely
[00:56.39] When you're alone in your bed
[01:00.38] Tell me the thoughts that surround you
[01:04.46] I want to look inside your head, yes I do
[01:08.57]
[01:10.34] I've seen all your qualifications
[01:14.53] You got from the Sorbonne
[01:18.59] And the painting you stole from Picasso
[01:22.91] Your loveliness goes on and on, yes it does
[01:28.34]
[01:28.82] When you go on your summer vacation
[01:33.09] You go to Juan-les-Pins
[01:36.99] With your carefully designed topless swimsuit
[01:41.17] You get an even suntan on your back and on your legs
[01:46.54]
[01:47.29] And when the snow falls you're found in Saint Moritz
[01:51.39] With the others of the jet-set
[01:55.20] And you sip your Napoleon brandy
[01:59.62] But you never get your lips wet, no you don't
[02:03.56]
[02:05.76] But where do you go to my lovely
[02:10.00] When you're alone in your bed
[02:13.87] Won't you tell me the thoughts that surround you
[02:18.35] I want to look inside your head, yes I do
[02:22.87]
[02:24.08] Your name, it is heard in high places
[02:28.47] You know the Aga Khan
[02:32.42] He sent you a racehorse for Christmas
[02:36.46] And you keep it just for fun, for a laugh a-ha-ha-ha
[02:42.50]
[02:42.78] They say that when you get married
[02:46.82] It'll be to a millionaire
[02:50.90] But they don't realize where you came from
[02:54.88] And I wonder if they really care, or give a damn
[03:00.01]
[03:01.36] Where do you go to my lovely
[03:05.50] When you're alone in your bed
[03:09.66] Tell me the thoughts that surround you
[03:13.70] I want to look inside your head, yes I do
[03:18.19]
[03:19.07] I remember the back streets of Naples
[03:23.91] Two children begging in rags
[03:27.96] Both touched with a burning ambition
[03:32.45] To shake off their lowly-born tags, so they try
[03:37.36]
[03:37.75] So look into my face Marie-Claire
[03:42.57] And remember just who you are
[03:46.67] Then go and forget me forever
[03:50.85] But I know you still bear the scar, deep inside, yes you do
[03:56.94]
[03:57.21] I know where you go to my lovely
[04:01.55] When you're alone in your bed
[04:05.79] I know the thoughts that surround you
[04:09.53] 'Cause I can look inside your head
[04:19.13]
[04:23.73] (na na-na-na na na-na-na na-na na na na na)
