Lyrics
“Dang It, Do I Have to Move to Paris?”
I wrote 30 songs in Klaukkala
Twice as many in Madrid
At least thrice as many more since I was a little kid
You ask if there’s a place that is special, well, there is
Dang it, do I have to move to Paris?
“About a Photo” got its spark
In a small Parisian park
And the rockin’ “FBA”
On the Champs-Élysées
Is there a city that inspires more than others? Yes, there is
Dang it, do I have to move to Paris?
It’s oh so cher there
So many stairs there
Everyone smokes
Bed bugs are no joke
But it’s simply the most wonderful
Beautiful
Historical
Delicious
Enticing
Inspiring
City in the world!
Sigh
I know what I can do
To save a sou or two
And never be refused
By the city that’s my muse
I’ll take photos with my phone
La ville with me wherever I roam
Then Dang it, I won’t have to move to Paris!
Sang it, I won’t have to move to Paris!
