To cheer my baby up I went and fixed her up
a trip to Paris for the day
And there she got to know a little Romeo
with oh so gentle continental ways.
(Chorus:)
Monsieur Dupont (ta ta ta ta), Monsieur Dupont (oh la la la)
She thinks you're fun, but she's so young and much too innocent to see
Monsieur Dupont (ta ta ta ta), you know it's wrong (oh la la la)
Why don't you send my little baby back to me?
I got a letter to say it's better
for me to find somebody new
It's such a sad affair, she didn't know where
your continental kiss could lead her to.
Chorus
There's lots of other girls from all around the world
Why don't you pick on one of those?
Just put her on a plane and send her home again
where I can show her all she needs to know?
Chorus
Monsieur Dupont (ta ta ta ta), Monsieur Dupont (oh la la la)...
