Look at all the captivating fascinating things there are to do
NAME TWO
Look at all the pleasures
All the myriad of treasures we have got
HA HA HA HA, LIKE WHAT?
Look at Paris in the spring when each solitary thing is more beautiful than ever
before
You can hear every tree almost saying
"Look at me!"
WHAT COLOR ARE THE TREES? Green!
WHAT COLOR WERE THEY LAST YEAR? Green!
AND NEXT YEAR? Green!
IT'S A BORE!
But now marvel at the power of the mighty Eiffel Tower
Knowing there it will remain evermore!
Climbing up to the sky
Over ninety stories high
HOW MANY STORIES? Ninety!
What does it matter?
IT'S STUNNING!
If you say so...
IT'S NO BORE!
But now the Seine
ALL IT CAN DO IS FLOW
But think of wine
IT'S RED OR WHITE
But think of girls!
IT'S EITHER YES OR NO
AND IF IT'S NO OR IF IT'S YES
IT SIMPLY COULDN'T MATTER LESS
Ah, stop!
IT'S THE SAME DULL WORLD WHEREVER YOU GO
WHATEVER PLACE YOU ARE AT
THE EARTH IS ROUND, BUT EVERYTHING ON IT IS FLAT
Ah ha
Don't tell me Venice has no lure
IT'S A TOWN THAT NEEDS A SEWER
THE LEANING TOWER I ADORE!
Engineering is a bore!
HA HA HA
But think of a race with your horse in seventh place
Then he suddenly begins and he catches up and wins with a roar
WHAT A BORE!
Then think of lunch beneath the trees!
YOU'LL EXCUSE ME IF YOU PLEASE
You mean you don't want to come
THE THOUGHT OF LUNCH LEAVES ME NUMB
But I implore
OH, NO, UNCLE,
Oh Gaston,
IT'S A BORE!
It's not a bore!
