There`s a place that I love to go
A little castle in the sky
Where I can watch the world go by
A restaurant beneath the stars
With mandolines and soft guitarres
You meet the high life and the low
The most amusing place I know
When it`s time to wine and dine
There`s a favorite place of mine
Ring the Maitre D
And ask if maybe he
Can have a table free at nine
He`ll be there to welcome me
To this crazy comedy
Where the rich and famous love to be
You see the clientel walk in
And watch the cabaret begin
It`s such a special place to be
There is so much that you can see
You see the lover`s deep in dreams
And those who quarrel making scenes
You see a maestro and the crowd
And all the famous from the town
When it`s time to wine and dine
There`s a favorite place of mine
Ring the Maitre D
And ask if maybe he
Can have a table free at nine
He`ll be there to welcome me
To this crazy comedy
Where the rich and famous love to be
The painted lady who appears
Is trying hard to hide the years
The gigolo who walks behind
Has only money on his mind
The movie star will always pose
To get the maximum applause
It`s like a circus everywhere
And so exiting to be there
When it`s time to wine and dine
There`s a favorite place of mine
Ring the Maitre D
And ask if maybe he
Can have a table free at nine
He`ll be there to welcome me
To this crazy comedy
Where the rich and famous love to be
My Italian restaurant gives me everything I want
My Itatalian restaurant
Won`t you come along with me to this crazy comedy
Where the rich and famous love to be
(P. Delanoë / Beriat/ Goussaud) - 1983
