Do You Remember Paris
Icicles on the ceiling
Bicycles in the bedroom
Cockroaches in the kitchen
Flowers that never grew
Frankenstein at the front door
Big bad wolf at the back door
Stranger than either fact or
Fiction but oh so true
Do you remember Paris?
I don't remember Paris
Thought it would sound romantic
If I said we'd been there
Do you remember Paris?
I've never been to Paris
Never been out of this town
Never been anywhere
Two rooms above a tavern
Tinier than a closet
First month for the deposit
Paid with an IOU
The landlady was from Poland
All of our stuff got stolen
Later I searched my soul and
Somebody stole that too
Do you remember Paris?
I don't remember Paris
Thought it would sound romantic
If I said we'd been there
Do you remember Paris?
I've never been to Paris
Never been out of this town
Never been anywhere
We got a little money
Suddenly life was sunny
Suddenly there were roses
Coming up everywhere
We got a little lovebug
Had a new roof above us
Had a few fights and love just
Vanished into the air
Do you remember Paris?
I don't remember Paris
Thought it would sound romantic
If I said we'd been there
Do you remember Paris?
I've never been to Paris
Never been out of this town
Never been anywhere
