Do The Strand

there's a new sensation, a fabulous creation

a danceable solution to teenage revolution

do the strand, love, when you feel love

it's the new way, that's why we say

do the strand

do it on the tables, quaglino's place or mabel's

slow and gentle, sentimental

all styles served here, louis seize he prefers

laissez-faire le strand

tired of the tango, fed up with fandango

dance on moonbeams, slide on rainbows

in furs or blue jeans, you know what i mean

do the strand

.....

we're playing our tune by the pale moon

we're incognito down the lido

and we like the strand

had your fill of quadrilles, the madison and cheap thrills

bored with the beguine, the samba isn't your scene

if you feel blue look through who's who

see la goulue and nijinsky

do the strandsky

weary of the waltz, mashed potato schmaltz

the sphinx and mona lisa, lolita and guernica

rhododendron is a nice flower

evergreen it lasts forever but it can't beat the strand power

do the strand
