The Streets Of Paris - Lyrics



I don't need four examples, lined up and switched around
To show there's always someone worse off in this town.
If I sound a little ungracious, well we all like to complain
Well that's no excuse for sanctimonious verse and a lecture in the refrain.
a lecture in the refrain.

Down at the cut price record fair, the tressel table sags
You can find your easy listening in ten carrier bags.
in ten carrier bags

You offered your song to a good old John, who missed out on fame and wealth
But at the time I can understand why you wouldn't want to sing it yourself,
you wouldn't want to sing it yourself.
Back on the streets of Paris, we've all heard the young man's snubs,
spreading out from Croydon, they'll be cringing in the clubs - through the decades - cringing in the clubs.

Down at the cut price record fair, the tressel table sags
with a ton of easy listening in ten carrier bags.
ten carrier bags

Sometimes I'd rather be lonely, don't need your advice
But if you wanted to give one of our crowd just a little leg up
well you wouldn't have to ask me twice

Down at the cut price record fair, the tressel table sags
with a ton of easy listening

the deep brown voice of the golden hour
the housewives choice for a baby shower

in ten carrier bags
