C Em
You talk like Marlene Dietrich
F G
And you dance like Zizi Jeanmaire
C Em
Your clothes are all made by Balmain
F G G/F G/E G/D
And there's diamonds and pearls in your hair
 
C Em
You live in a fancy appartement
F G
Of the Boulevard of St. Michel
C Em
Where you keep your Rolling Stones records
F G G/F G/E G/D
And a friend of Sacha Distel
C Em
But where do you go to my lovely
F G
When you're alone in your bed
C Em
Tell me the thoughts that surround you
F G G/F G/E G/D
I want to look inside your head
 
I've seen all your qualifications 
You got from the Sorbonne 
And the painting you stole from Picasso 
Your loveliness goes on and on, yes it does 
When you go on your summer vacation 
You go to Juan-les-Pines 
With your carefully designed topless swimsuit 
You get an even suntan, on your back and on your legs 
 
When the snow falls you're found in St. Moritz 
With the others of the jet-set 
And you sip your Napoleon Brandy 
But you never get your lips wet 
But where do you go to.. 
 
Your name is heard in high places 
You know the Aga Khan 
He sent you a racehorse for christmas 
And you keep it just for fun, for a laugh ha-ha 
 
They say that when you get married 
It'll be to a millionaire 
But they don't realize where you came from 
And I wonder if they really care, they give a damn 
But where do you go to.. 
 
I remember the back streets of Naples 
Two children begging in rags 
Both touched with a burning ambition 
To shake off their lowly brown tags, yes they try 
 
So look into my face Marie-Claire 
And remember just who you are 
Then go and forget me forever 
'Cause I know you still bear the scar, deep inside, yes you do 
I know where you go to my lovely 
When you're alone in your bed 
I know the thoughts that surround you 
'Cause I can look inside your head
