gay paree - robert preston lyrics

[toddy]
when people speak of g-y paree
they think that when they say paree is g-y
they mean that g-y paree is g-y;
it is! not in the way paree
was g-y in yesterday paree;
it means today that g-y paree is “g-y!”

not that g-y!
they say paree has always been “that way!”

along the banks of the seine
just take a walk now and then
you’ll meet some interesting men: g-y paree!
along the rue madeleine
each evening ’round about ten
you’ll see it time and time again: g-y paree!
if you’ve a soiree to spare
go to the follies bergeres
you’ll see such gaiety there
c’est la vie!

around the rue des beaux-arts
where all the cabarets shows are
i mean, well, really those are
you’ll agree
what they mean when they say “g-y paree”!

du foubourg saint honore
where all the millionaires play
is also, i’m so glad to say, g-y paree!
the rue de rivoli arcade
where fancy goods are displayed
there’s also plenty of rough trade: g-y paree!
and in arrondiss-m-nt eight
the champs elysees i would rate
perhaps the one thing that’s straight as can be
and at the cafe de la paix
if you are heading that way
they drink a toast ev’ry day around three;
they make each moment as g-y
as le quatorze of juillet;
that’s what they mean when the say
“g-y paree!”
