Lyrics

There's a ship leaving At dawn taking All the lucky girls with velvet trunks Aboard its bow They're dressed in camisoles They twirl white parasols I want to join them But I don't know how Take me to Paris Take me from Petersburg to Paris I want to see a real cabaret Call a chick an "un poulet" Sing all those beautiful ballads Eat pate, say "je suis malade" It's not so far from the snow Spring flowers Not so far for me to go What hours? [Spoken: When you can see Sarah Bernhardt starring as Napoleon's son in "L'Aiglon"! Do you know what I mean?] I always wanted to be a drag queen! Ohhh Take me to Paris Let's get away from thе snow The rain on the street, scentеd I'd love to go! Woah, take me to Paris Take me, whoever you are It's not so far from the snow Spring flowers Not so far for me to go What hours? Not so far for us to take What's ours I need to go! Oh, take me to Paris Let's get away from the snow And when I decide to return You'll see me burn! I'll be burning like a star! I'll be burning like a star! I'll be burning Like a star
