Lyrics

I went to a marvelous party

With Nounou and Nada and Nell

It was in the fresh air

And we went as we were

And we stayed as we were

Which was Hell

Grace started singing at midnight

And she didn't stop singing till four

We knew the excitement was bound to begin

When Laura got blind on Dubonnet and gin

And scratched her veneer with a Cartier pin

And I couldn't have liked it more

I went to a marvelous party [3x]

And I couldn’t have liked it more

I went to a marvelous party [2x]

When Laura got blind on Dubonnet and gin

And I couldn’t have liked it more

I went to a marvellous party

We played the most wonderful game

Maud disappeared

And came back in a beard

And we all had to guess at her name

Cecil arrived wearing armor

Some shells and a black feather boa

Millicent wore a surrealist comb

Made of bits of mosaic from St. Peter's in Rome

But the weight was so great that she had to go home

And I couldn't have liked it more

I went to a marvelous party [2x]

And I couldn’t have liked it more

I went to a marvelous party

The weight was so great that she had to go home

And I couldn't have liked it more

I’ve been to a marvelous party

I must say the fun was intense

We all had to do

What the people we knew

Might be doing a hundred years hence

We talked about growing old gracefully

And Elsie who's seventy-four

Said, “A, it's a question of being sincere

B, if you're supple you've nothing to fear

Then she swung upside down from a glass chandelier

And I couldn't have liked it more

I went to a marvelous party [3x]

And I couldn’t have liked it more

I went to a marvelous party [2x]

A, it's a question of being sincere

B, if you're supple you've nothing to fear

Then she swung upside down from a glass chandelier

And I couldn't have liked it more
