Lyrics:

Welcome, my friends, to Paris.
Here, have a flower on me.
Forget where you're from.
You're in France! Children, come!
I'll show you that French joie de vivre!

Paris holds the key to your heart.
And all of Paris plays a part.
Just stroll two by two
Down what we call 'la rue'
And soon all Paris
Will be singing to you!
Ooh La La
Ooh La La
Ooh La La!

Paris holds the key to l'amour!
And not even Freud knows the cure.
There's love in the air!
At the Folies Bergere1
The French have it down to an art!
Paris holds the key to your heart!

SOPHIE
When you're feeling blue
Come to Le Moulin.
When your heart says don't,
The French say do!

When you think you can't
You'll find you can can!

Everyone can can can!
You can can can too!

DIMITRI
Paris hold the key to her past.
Yes, Princess, I've found you at last.
No more pretend,
You'll be gone,
That's the end...

SOPHIE AND EMSEMBLE
Paris hold the key to your heart!
You'll be 'tres jolie' and so smart!
Come dance through the night
And forget all your woes
The city of light
Where a rose is a rose!2

And one never knows what will start!
Paris holds the key...

DIMITRI
To her...

SOPHIE AND EMSEMBLE
Heart!

Ooh La La!
Ooh La La!
Ooh La La!
