IAN THE EUROPEAN

WORDS & MUSIC:   Earl P. Reinhalter


         I.  along the Champs-Elysée,
             the women know his name.
             the rumours and the hearsay
             contribute to his fame.
             that monumental continental...

  CHORUS A:  Ian the European,
             he's strictly upper rung.
             Ian the European,
             he speaks the native tongue.

        II.  "bonjour, señor.
             arrivaderci, matador.
             ich bin ein grape suzette,
             Alfa Romeo and Juliette."
             he's a monumental continental...

  CHORUS B:  Ian the European,
             his accent is superb.
             Ian the European
             knows every case and verb.

       III.  "au revoir, Sam O'Var,
             ravioli avant garde.
             babushka al fresco.
             top o' the morning and cheerio."
             that on-the-prowl-again cosmopolitan...

  CHORUS A:  Ian the European,
             he's strictly upper rung.
             Ian the European,
             he speaks the native tongue.

  CHORUS B:  Ian the European,
             his accent is superb.
             Ian the European
             knows every case and verb.

    SPOKEN:  La plume de ma tante est dans le jardin.
             Mi caca, su caca.
             Ciao!
