And lay them at your feet for all the world to see
Tonight this joie de vivre sure don’t live up to it's name
At the sight of American blood on the streets of St. Germain
But tonight I can’t give you Paris
And I’d give this world to you, every rock and every stone
From the queen of England and if you asked me to
Every masterpiece in Rome and if you asked me to
But tonight I can’t give you Paris
She’d like nothing better than to steal the breath from me
Aristocrats are everywhere and the air is thick as thieves
And now all that I can say
Is I’d give this world to you, every rock and every stone
And lay them at your feet for all the world to see
Washin' up into the seine
Every masterpiece in Rome and if you asked me to
I’d steal the Mona Lisa, tear it up in little pieces
I’d take this city in my hands, break it down in grains of sand
Everybody’s stoned on pride and drunk on cheap champagne
And I’d give this world to you, I’d steal the crown and kingdom
The tower’s lights ain't shinin’ as it hangs it's head in shame
I’d steal the Mona Lisa, tear it up in little pieces
And lay them at your feet for all the world to see
