Lyrics

Went to the house of Mary Lasker Saw Matisses, Picassos, Renoirs and Gauguins Golf course and flowers, statues and stables I met a Whitney, Rockefeller and Brown! And they were dancin', dancing together Dancin', oh so beautifully Dancin', dancing together Dancin', oh as if in a dream Charles Jourdan, Oleg Cassini There was Andy Warhol and Hanae Mori Beautiful products all over the table Fills my heart up with thoughts of my people And they were dancin', dancing together... I love my little people You don't know what it's like I'd rather be back in my Leyte Back in the Quonset hut Ali Hassan, Margot Fonteyn Christina Onassis and the Queen of Spain Beautiful women in beautiful homes Just out of reach if your skin's colored brown And they'll be dancin', dancing together... "Hello Mr. Zeibel? Yes, my name is Jane Ryan-Mr. Saunders and I would like to make a deposit:" Mm-hmm, now listen: Breakfast with George, disco with George It must be us who truly serve!
