The song is about a fictional girl named Marie-Claire who grows up on the poverty-stricken
backstreets of Naples, becomes a member of the jet set, and goes on to live in Paris.
The lyrics describe her from the perspective of a childhood friend; it is left unclear whether

One theory says that the song is about the Italian actress Sophia Loren, who was abandoned
by her father and had a poverty-stricken life in Naples. Another theory has the song being
inspired by Danish singer and actress Nina van Pallandt.
