We like the quiet life, we like the country life
We like every single life but a city life
Because it's too much for us to take a hold, oh

Look at those busy bees, with the black berets
Lookin' fly and stylish
Well, you wanna know somethin' mate - fuck you! Oh!

Everybody looks so cold, so I'm pretty much good to go
And it's down in the city, down in the city
Comin' in to go, everybody l-l-looks so cold
And it's down in the city, down in the city!

Paris, wakin' up in Paris, oh-ooh
Paris, wakin' up in Paris, oh-oh
Paris, wakin' up in Paris, oh-ooh
Paris, wakin' up in Paris, oh-oh

We like the lonely life, we like the horny life
We like every single life but a city life
Because it's too much for us to take control, oh
Look at the Champs-Elysees
The Eiffel Tower straight behind me
And I don't know what the hell to fuckin' do, oh!

Everybody looks so cold, so I'm pretty much good to go
And it's down in the city, down in the city
Comin' in to go, everybody l-l-looks so cold
And it's down in the city, down in the city!
Paris, wakin' up in Paris, oh-ooh
Paris, wakin' up in Paris, oh-oh
Paris, wakin' up in Paris, oh-ooh
Paris, wakin' up in Paris, oh-oh

Down in the city, down in the city (echoes)
Down in the city (echoes), down in the city!
Down in the city, down in the city
Down in the city, down in the city!

Paris, wakin' up in Paris, oh-ooh
Paris, wakin' up in Paris, oh-oh
Paris, wakin' up in Paris, oh-ooh
Paris, wakin' up in Paris, oh-oh
