Lyrics
Baby, I’m gonna take you to Paris France
I’ll liberate you in the name of romance
I’m gonna storm your beaches
Please just give me half a chance
Baby, I’m gonna buy you a black beret
While the streetlights shine down the Champs-Élysées
And if you feel like a wine
We can find ourselves a little cafe
You can demonstrate your foreign powers
Baby, get me higher than the Eiffel Tower
If your mom says no, let her eat gateau
'Cause it’s time for you and I to go to Paris France
Baby, I’m gonna take you to see the Louvre
We’ve got nothing but time, I’ve got something to prove
Girl, the Mona Lisa?
Baby, she’s got nothing on you
Baby, I’m gonna take you to see Versailles
Check you out in every mirror you walk by
And there amid the splendor
Baby, I’ll surrender to you
You can demonstrate your foreign powers
Baby, get me higher than the Eiffel Tower
If your mom says no, let her eat gateau
'Cause it’s time for you and I to go to Paris France
