Looted Songtext
von The Proclaimers

The looted and brought to the Louvre
Flesh just as plump as a baby′s
Bet you see more than I do
Looking beyond the truth

Bonjour mon ami
Hope this won't sound mean?
But you stand alongside Britain
As thieving scum supreme
Yet I stand here with you
48 in line
Just to gaze in wonder
It happens every time

Looted and brought to the Louvre
Skin just as pink as a lady′s
I bet you see more than I do
Looking beyond the truth


And your eyes follow me
All around the room
Watching soldiers wielding guns
They're loaded, I presume

But there's so many people
Making so much noise
Let me stop right here
So I can hear your voice
You′re a work of genius
Passed from hand to hand
Now I observe something
I can′t quite understand

Looted and brought to the Louvre
Face just as fair as a daisy's
I bet you see more than I do
Looking beyond the truth

You were looted and brought to the Louvre
Flesh just as plump as a baby′s
I bet you see more than I do
Looking beyond the truth
