11 Paris Is So In Love! Outside the museum where Mata Hari has just given her triumphant performance (A Paradise etc). The audience spills out excitedly, the first three being Albert, Gerald and Marcel. While they are singing, Mata Hari s manager, Clunet emerges. He produces a sign advertising the next show which features a life-size painting of her. Gerard Albert Gerard Albert Gerard Albert Could it be? Was it so? Did we really have nowhere to go? Life is good What went right? Certain appetites whetted tonight From famine to feast By way of the East Dancing her dance Casting her spell Making me mad for the mademoiselle How do you do? I m well and you? I m full of life! Yes, I am too! Is it a certain lady who Has turned the world upside-down? They sing, addressing the painted Mati Hari All 3 Paris was bored Nothing to do Waiting for someone, that someone was you! A city sighs when you undress A city dies for one caress The oriental you express Oh, Paris is so in love! Marcel addresses a group of people who have been drawn by the excitement. Marcel Group She shall have music wherever she goes She is pure poetry, we are mere prose Not only that but she takes off her clothes Oh! Ahem! etc

12 Clunet addresses the crowd like a fairground barker, drumming up trade Clunet And she s dancing again in one hour! See the show entailing A slow unveiling You re in for a nightful of something delightful It s Art. Noveau. And it s, well, you know Kind of pure, yet illicit Be sure you don t miss it I ve one little ticket And if you are quick it s for you (producing more as the crowd surges) and you and you and you! Mata Hari appears. Pandemonium. They all rush to buy tickets, and Clunet struggles to take all the money being thrust into his hands. Meanwhile, others lift Mata Hari onto their shoulders and parade her around. All Albert Gerard Marcel All 3 Goddess of love! Who can resist Lips that may whisper they ve never been kissed? And from today Each Jean or Jacques Who wants to get His mojo back Has found an aphrodisiac To turn his world upside-down Paris was bored Not any more! Now we have wonderful you to adore! The Eiffel Tower has grown in height Where we were gauche, now we re all right We re going to have some fun tonight Cause Paris is so in love! Company Paris was bored Nothing to do Waiting for someone, that someone was you! A city sighs when you undress A city dies for one caress The oriental you express Oh, Paris is so in love!
