Monsieur Dupont Lyrics

The rain was falling down, as I flew out of town
I went to Paris for the day
And there I got to know a certain Romeo
With oh so gentle continental ways

{Refrain:}
Monsieur Dupont, la la ta ta, Monsieur Dupont
La la la la
You made me see so tenderly that I was never
Loved before
Monsieur Dupont, la la ta ta, I know it's
Wrong, la la la la
That I don't ever want to go home anymore

You said “Hello” to me, and I began to see
That I could fall in love with you
I seemed to realize the kind of paradise
Your continental kiss could lead me to

{au Refrain}

I'm learning every day a different word to say
I know “Je t'aime” and “Je t'adore”
But won't you tell how, oh won't you tell me
Now
The way you say en français: Give me more!
{au Refrain}

That I don't ever want to go home anymore

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
