Song Lyrics

Porter
Have you heard among this clan
I am called the forgotten man ?
Well did you evah?

What a swell party this is!
Have you heard the story of
Dexter boy being gypped by love?
Well, did you evah?

What a swell party this is
What frails, what frocks
What furs, what rocks
What gaiety!

It's all too exquis
That french champagne
So good for the brain
That band, it's the end!

Kindly don't fall down, my friend.
Have you heard? professor munch
Ate his wife and divorced his lunch.
Well, did you evah?

What a swell party this is!
Have you heard? the countess krupp
Crossed the bridge when the bridge was up
Well, did you evah?

What a swell party this is!
Have you heard that mimsie starr
Just got pinched in the astor bar?
Well, did you evah?

What a swell party this is!
Have you heard that uncle newt
Forgot to open his parachute?
Well, did you evah?

What a swell party this
It 's great, it's grand
It 's wonderland
What soup, what fish

That beef what a dish
That grouse, so rare
That old camembert!
That baba au rhum!

Will you please move over, chum?
Have you heard the poor dear blanche
Got run down by an avalanche?
Well, did you evah?

What a swell party this is!
Have you heard? it's in the stars
Next July we collide with mars.
Well, did you evah?

What a swell party this is!

Cole Porter
