text: He met her in a french cafe
  She slipped in sideways like a cat
  Sidelong glances, what a wary little stray&127;
  She sticks in his mind like that
  Saying avez vous un alumette
  With her lips wrapped around a cigarette
  Yvette in English saying please have this
  Little bit of instant bliss
  Hes struggling with a foreign tongue
  Reaching for words and drawing blanks
  A loud mouth is stricken deaf and dumb
  In a bistro on the left bank
  If I was a painter Picasso said
  Id paint this girl from toe to head
  Yvette in English, saying please have this
  Little bit of instant bliss
  Burgundy nocturne tips and spills
  They move along nicely in the spreading stain
  New chills, new thrills
  For the old uphill battle
  How did he wind up here again
  Walking and talking touched and scared
  Uninsulated wires bare
  Yvette in English saying please have this
  Little bit of instant bliss
  What blew her like a leaf his way
  Up in the air and down to earth
  First she flusters, then she frays
  So quick to question her own worth
  Her cigarette burns her finger tips
  It falls like fireworks, she curses it
  Sweetly in English she says please have this
  Little bit of instant bliss
  He sees her turn and walk away
  Skittering like a cat on a stone
  Her high heels clicking, what a wary little stray
  She leaves him by the Seine alone
  With black water and amber lights
  And the bony bridge between left and right
  Yvette in English, saying please have this
  Little bit of instant bliss
