They're making an offer that's too good to refuse. What could go wrong?

lyrics

I'll see you again in Rue du Chat-Qui-Pêche
When tables are laid out and we're both free
I'll give up my business and you'll settle down
We'll knock up a family for us in Paris

I'll say goodbye to all of my flings
Give up my toys, my booze
I won't hound your friends and I'll stop keeping tabs
And of course I'll be fine with whatever you choose

But if you say no, I will never forgive
I'll burn down your memory as long as I live
I get what I want, I'm not wrong
I'm making it easy so just play along

Divorce your drab wife, give her the slip
Take up my offer, a fully-paid trip
I dream of you here in my suite
The glass and the steel, they feel incomplete

Below in the fray of Rue du Chat-Qui-Pêche
Onions are frying and burgundy flows
I made reservations I hope that’s swell
And also I bought you a set of brand-new clothes

I can't wait to hear the sound of your voice
Or to wire you money to bring you to me
You found my glass slipper, now what do you say?
What could go wrong for us in Paris?
