Où Est Ma Tête? Lyrics in English Pink Martini

“Où Est Ma Tête?” whisks us through the streets of Paris on a delightfully absurd treasure hunt. The narrator has literally misplaced pieces of her body—her head on Rue Saint-Honoré, her arms at Place de l’Opéra, her nose outside Le Bon Marché, and even her feet in Saint-Germain-des-Prés. These playful images paint Paris as a giant lost-and-found while giving listeners a fun vocabulary tour of the city’s most iconic spots.

Beneath the whimsy lies a sincere confession: each missing part symbolizes how shattered she feels after a breakup. Only her beloved can “re-assemble” her, making the song a charming blend of slapstick comedy and heartfelt longing. Pink Martini, the eclectic band from the United States, turns heartbreak into a jaunty, accordion-kissed stroll that reminds us love can leave us in pieces, but it can also put us back together.
