In the lyrics "Oscar" is Oscar Wilde and "Jim" is Jim Morrison. Both of whom, along with Edith Piaf, are buried in the Père Lachaise cemetery in Paris.

Lyrics

I could take a fax to Père Lachaise
But I wouldn't see anybody there
'Cause I know there wouldn't be that much to do
Woh oh oh oh oh
Père Lachaise
Oscar's fax is anywhere
Jim is right up in the air
Edith Piaf, she just says
"Whoa, I'd prefer a fax if I had a face, yeah"
