In the city of Paris, so grand and so bright
There's a place that's sure to bring you delight
It's the cinema, where films come alive
And you can watch them on a big screen, oh my!

The cinema's beautiful, it's quite a sight
And the films that play there are a true delight
You'll laugh and you'll cry and you'll feel so clever
For the magic of cinema will stay with you forever

So come on down and take a seat
In the cinema, where the air smells sweet
You'll see things you've never seen before
And you'll leave feeling happy, that's for sure

For in the cinema, anything's possible, you see
And you'll never know what you might be
Watching next, it could be a tale of adventure
Or a story of love, you'll be lost in the pleasure

So come to the cinema and you'll never say never
For the magic of movies will stay with you forever
In the beautiful city of Paris, where dreams come alive
And the cinema's the place where you'll truly thrive.
