Where Do You Go To My Lovely lyrics

You talk like Marlene Dietrich

And you dance like Zizi Jeanmaire

Your clothes are all made by Balmain

And there's diamonds and pearls in your hair

Yes, there are

You live in a fancy apartment

Off the Boulevard Saint-Michel

Where you keep your Rolling Stones records

And a friend of Sacha Distel

Yes, you do

You go to the embassy parties

Where you talk in Russian and Greek

And the young men who move in your circles

They hang on every word you speak

Yes, they do

But where do you go to, my lovely

When you're alone in your bed?

Tell me the thoughts that surround you

I want to look inside your head

Yes, I do

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-Pins

With your carefully designed topless swimsuit

You get an even suntan, on your back

And on your legs

And when the snow falls, you're found in St. Moritz

With the others of the Jet-Set

And you sip your Napoleon brandy

And you never get your lips wet

No, you don't

But where do you go to, my lovely

When you're alone in your bed?

Tell me the thoughts that surround you

I want to look inside your head

Yes, I do

You're in between twenty and thirty

A very desirable age

Your body is firm and inviting

But you live on a glittering stage

Yes, you do

Your name it is heard in high places

You know the Aga Khan

He sent you a race horse for Christmas

And you keep it just for fun, for a laugh

Ha-ha-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

Or give a damn

But where do you go to, my lovely

When you're alone in your bed?

Tell me the thoughts that surround you

I want to look inside your head

Yes, I do

I remember the back streets of Naples

Two children begging in rags

Both touched with a burning ambition

To shake off their lowly-born tags

They try

So look into my face, Marie-Claire

And remember just who you are

Then go and forget me forever

But 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
