Paris Is Burning

43, it's raining in gay Paris
 Where would I rather be?
 On this autumn night?
 Small cafe
 We sit and drink anyway
 Look out at the stars tonight
 It's a bombers moon
 Paris is burning
 I heard it on the BBC
 Paris is burning
 Au revoir ma bonne Paris
 Paris is burning
 I heard it on the radio
 Paris is burning
 But the people refuse to go
 Searching lights
 Fan the sky and break up the night
 Moths caught in a beam of light
 Trying to leave
 Children cry
 As the fireworks light up the sky
 Headfine is homing in
 Now it's do or die
 Paris is burning
 I heard it on the BBC
 Paris is burning
 Au revoir ma bonne Paris
 Paris is burning
 I heard it on the radio
 Paris is burning
 But the people refuse to go
 Paris is burning
 I heard it on the BBC
 Paris is burning
 Au revoir ma bonne Paris
 Paris is burning
 I heard it on the radio
 Paris is burning
 But the people refuse to go
