Lyrics

Paris city boy

Paris city boy
Voilà le jour que tu attendais
Tu es un Paris city boy
comme un prince sur les Champs Élysées

When you're a boy
some days are tough
lying on your bed
playing punk rock and stuff
Home is a boot camp
you gotta escape
Wanna go and wander
in the ticker-tape

Tu sais que c'est ta chance
Tu es un Paris city boy
Si jeune, va tien
Rejoins Paris city

Paris City Boy
Voilà le jour que tu attendais
Tu es un Paris city boy
comme un prince sur les Champs Élysées

The street is amazing
the hoochies unreal
Check out all the hardware
at the latest deal
Hear a song
That's the bomb!
If you don't get that mix
it's gone eighty-six

Tu sais que c'est ta chance
Tu es à Paris city

Paris city boy
Voilà le jour que tu attendais
Tu es un Paris city boy
Comme un prince sur les Champs Élysées
Paris city boy
Tu ne t'ennuieras plus jamais
Tu es un Paris city boy
comme un prince sur les Champs Élysées
