When you´re too tense it´s common sense to relax-ay-voo
The more you earn the less you learn to relax-ay-voo
We French you´ll find are more inclined to relax-ay-voo

Relax, relax, relax, relax-ay-voo

Your doctor bills they hold for pills to relax-ay-voo
You´re in your prime so now´s the time to relax-ay-voo
The girls pursue those fellows who can relax-ay-voo
Relax, relax, relax, relax-ay-voo

You´re as tight as a drum
You´re as gay as a tune
You better loosen up chum
Your drum is apt to snap and go boom boom
And when you go they´ll take your dough
Cause it´s tax-ay-voo
Get your sneakers and slacks and relax-ay-voo

I don´t have to try to relax-ay-voo
Chum I´m much to numb to relax-ay-voo
We French you´ll find are more inclined to relax-ay-voo
Relax, relax, relax, relax-ay-voo

Bub, I take a tub to relax-ay-voo
Bub, I sit and scrub to relax-ay-voo
The girls pursue those fellows who can relax-ay-voo
Relax, relax, relax, relax-ay-voo

You´re as tight as a drum
I was loose as a deuce
You´re as gay as a tune
I was light as a kite
Better loosen up chum
Your drum is apt to snap and go boom boom

And when you go they´ll take your dough
For a tax-ay-voo
Get your sneakers and slacks and relax-ay-voo
Get your sneakers and slacks and relax-ay-voo
