Lyrics

[Intro]
| C Em | Dm

[Verse 1]
G    C                     Em
 You talk like Marlene Dietrich
        Dm                  G
And you dance like Zizi Jeanmaire
     C                          Em
Your clothes are all made by Balmain
            Dm
And there's diamonds and pearls in your hair,
G
 yes there are
    C                Em
You live in a fancy apartment
        Dm              G
Off the Boulevard St. Michel
          C                        Em
Where you keep your Rolling Stones records
      Dm                 G
And a friend of Sacha Distel, yes you do

[Verse 2]
    C                     Em
But where do you go to my lovely
Dm                        G
When you're alone in your bed?
C                                 Em
Tell me the thoughts that surround  you
  Dm
I want to look inside your head,
G
 yes I do
     C                    Em
I've seen all your qualifications
    Dm              G
You got from the Sorbonne
        C                         Em
And the painting you stole from Picasso
     Dm
Your loveliness goes on and on,
G
 yes it does

[Verse 3]
         C                   Em
When you go on your summer vacation
    Dm           G
You go to JuanlesPins
          C                          Em
With your carefully designed topless swimsuit
    Dm             G
You get an even suntan on your back,
and on your legs
             C
And when the snow falls you're found in St.
Em
Moritz
         Dm                   G
With the others of the jet set
        C                 Em
And you sip your Napoleon brandy
        Dm
But you never get your lips wet,
G
 no you don't

[Verse 4]
    C                     Em
But where do you go to my lovely
Dm                        G
When you're alone in your bed?
          C                            Em
Won't you tell me the thoughts that surround you?
  Dm
I want to look inside your head,
G
 yes I do
     C                     Em
Your name is heard in high places
    Dm               G
You know the Aga Khan
   C                         Em
He sent you a race horse for Christmas
        Dm                   G
And you keep it just for fun , for a laugh,
hahahaha

[Verse 5]
     C                     Em
They say that when you get married
      Dm            G
It'll be to a millionaire
         C                       Em
But they don't realize where you came from
      Dm
And I wonder if they really care,
G
 or give a damn
    C                     Em
But where do you go to my lovely
Dm                        G
When you're alone in your bed?
C                                 Em
Tell me the thoughts that surround  you
  Dm                       G
I want to look inside your head,
yes I do

[Verse 6]
    C                         Em
I remember the back streets of  Naples:
         Dm             G
Two children begging in rags
     C                        Em
Both touched with a burning ambition
   Dm
To shake off their lowlyborn tags,
G
 they tried
   C                       Em
So look into my face, MarieClaire
      Dm                     G
And remember just who you are
     C                  Em
Then go and forget me forever
      Dm                          G
But I know you still bear the scar deep inside yes I do

[Verse 7]
  C                       Em
I know where you go to my lovely
Dm                        G
When you're alone in your bed
C                                Em
I know the thoughts that surround  you
      Dm         G           C
Cause I can look inside your head

[Fade Out]
