Well, Did You Evah? lyrics
Soundtrack: High Society
MIKE:
When you're out in smart society
And you suddenly get bad news,
You mustn't show anxiety
And proceed to sing the blues.
DEXTER:
Have you heard among the clan,
I am called "the Forgotten Man"?
MIKE:
Well, did you evah?
What a swell party this is!
DEXTER:
Have you heard the story of
Dexter boy being gypped by love?
MIKE:
Well, did you evah?
What a swell party this is!
What frails, what frocks!
What furs, what rocks!
DEXTER:
What gaiety!
It's all too exquis!
MIKE:
The French Campagne!
DEXTER:
So good for the brain!
MIKE:
That band, it's the end!
DEXTER:
Kindly don't fall down, my friend.
MIKE:
Have you heard? Professor Munch
Ate his win=fe and divorced his lunch.
DEXTER:
Well, did you evah?
What a swell party this is!
Have you heard? The Countess Krupp
Crossed the bridge when the bridge was up.
MIKE:
Well, did you evah?
BOTH:
What a swell party this is!
MIKE:
Have you heard that Mimsie Starr
Just got pinched in a sailor's bar?
DEXTER:
Well, did you evah?
What a swell party this is!
Have you heard that Uncle Newt
Forgot to open his parachute?
MIKE:
Well, did you evah?
What a swell party this is!
It's great, it's grand!
DEXTER:
It's wonderland!
MIKE:
What soup, what fish!
DEXTER:
That beef, what dish!
MIKE:
That grouse, so rare!
DEXTER:
That old Camembert!
MIKE:
That Baba au Rhum!
DEXTER:
Will you please move over, chum?
MIKE:
Have you heard that poor dear Blanche
Got run down by an avalanche?
DEXTER:
Well, did you evah?
What a swell party this is!
Have you heard? It's in the stars
Next July we collide with Mars.
MIKE:
Well, did you evah?
DEXTER:
What a swell party this is!
