Lorsqu'on nous demande
Ce que c'est : Paris,
On répond toujours l'Etoil', les Tuileries,
Le Bois de Boulogne, le Bois de Vincennes,
Les petit's boutiques des quais de la Seine.
D'autres, plus sérieux, disent sans hésiter
C'est la p'tit' Roquette ou bien c'est la Santé,
C'est les grands boul'vards, Pigall', l'Opéra,
Mais ne le croyez pas.

Refrain :
Paris, mais c'est la Tour Eiffel
Avec sa point' qui monte au ciel.
Qu'on la trouv' laide, qu'on la trouv' belle,
Y a pas d'Paris sans Tour Eiffel.
On la débine, on la charrie,
Pourtant, partout ce n'est qu'un cri :
Paris n' s'rait pas Paris sans ell'
Paris, mais c'est la Tour Eiffel

Il faut dire que beaucoup de Parisiens
Ne connaiss'nt la Tour
Que par leurs p'tits cousins
Ou alors par le vieil oncle à héritage
Qu'est monté à pied jusqu'au troisième étage.
Ah ! dit-il, c'est beau,
C'est merveilleux, Madame,
Quand on est là-haut,
On peut voir tout Paname,
Et le Parisien se dit : tiens, tiens, tiens,
J'irai la voir demain .

Refrain :
Paris, mais c'est la Tour Eiffel,
Avec sa point' qui monte au ciel.
Qu'on la trouv' laide, qu'on la trouv' belle,
Y a pas d'Paris sans Tour Eiffel.
Mais j'suis jamais monté là d'dans,
Mais j'suis fier comme Artaban.
Paris n' s'rait pas Paris sans ell'.
Paris, mais c'est la Tour Eiffel.

Un jour une jeune et belle Américaine
Voulut voir Paris et les bords de la Seine.
Ell' visita les monuments, les musées,
Les grands magasins, les rues et les cafés.
Mais, voilà qu'un soir, ell' rencontra l'amour
Et maint'nant quand
On lui demande à son tour
Quel est votre avis sur Paris, franch'ment :
Ell' dit en rougissant :

Refrain :
Paris, mais c'est la Tour Eiffel
Avec sa point' qui monte ai ciel.
La Tour de Pise, la Tour de Nesle,
La Tour de Londr's sont bien moins bell's.
On est toujours sûr avec ell'
De monter jusqu'au septième ciel.
Paris n' s'rait pas Paris sans ell'
Avec sa point' qui monte au ciel
Paris, mais c'est la Tour Eiffel.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
