Sandy Wilson - It's Nicer in Nice lyrics

(Verse) [HORTENSE] I'm often asked if I would like to travel And visit other lands across the sea But though it might be pleasant I think that for the present This is the place where I prefer to be Let others go to Sweden or Siam I think I'll stay exactly where I am (Chorus) [HORTENSE] They say it's lovely when a Young lady's in Vienna But it's nicer, much nicer in Nice In Amsterdam or Brussels The men have great big muscles But they're nicer, much nicer in Nice I've heard that the Italians Are very fond of dalliance And they're also keen on it in Greece But whatever they may say This is where I want to stay For it's so much nicer in Nice [ENSEMBLE] She says it's nicer, much nicer in Nice She says it's nicer, much nicer in Nice [HORTENSE] Some people's one desire is To go to Buenos Aires But it's nicer, much nicer in Nice The laws are rather vague in The town of Copenhagen But they're nicer, much nicer in Nice And some may like a flutter In Bombay or Calcutta But they might have trouble with the p'lice (Ooh, la la!) Other places may be fun But when all is said and done It is so much nicer in Nice (dance break) [HORTENSE] But they might have trouble with the p'lice (Oh, mon Dieu!) Though I know a love affair Is delicious anywhere It is so much nicer in Nice [ALL] And some may like a flutter In Bombay or Calcutta But they might have trouble with the p'lice Other places may be fun But when all is said and done It is so much nicer in Nice [HORTENSE] So much nicer [ALL] So much nicer in Nice
