Louis said the revolution's spread. Louis said I mustn't lose my head. And the people haven't any bread; I say let 'em all eat cake. Louis says that kind of attitude Could be a grave mistake.
and a bonus shout-out: Trendy trav'lers tend to talk Of London, Paris, Rome, New York, Like only they were stylish and unique. But out in the Midwest Is the city I love the best: A town so smart it's spelling stars With: C - H - I - C...Chic! Chicago, Illinois, is like a shiny toy. The prairie State is proud to state That it's its pride and joy. The Windy City sweeps ya clean off ya feet; POW! Its charm is complete; POW!

Louis said I mustn't lose my head.
And the people haven't any bread;
I say let 'em all eat cake.
Louis says that kind of attitude
Could be a grave mistake.
and a bonus shout-out:
Trendy trav'lers tend to talk
Of London, Paris, Rome, New York,
Like only they were stylish and unique.
But out in the Midwest
Is the city I love the best:
A town so smart it's spelling stars
With: C - H - I - C...Chic!
Chicago, Illinois, is like a shiny toy.
The prairie State is proud to state
That it's its pride and joy.
The Windy City sweeps ya clean off ya feet;
POW!
Its charm is complete;
POW!
They're knockin' ya flat, this way or that
On ev'ry downtown street.
POW!
The White Sox and the Cubs
And other sporting clubs
Make living here a pretty nifty ploy.
Smack on the lake, this is the report!
Someday, they say, we'll have an airport!
When they say: "hey, I'm from Chi!",
They mean Chicago, Il-li-nois!
