[MIKE:]
I have heard among this clan
You are called the forgotten man

[DEXTER:]
Is that what they're saying? Well, did you ever
What a swell party this is

[MIKE:]
And have you heard the story of
A boy, a girl, unrequited love

[DEXTER:]
Sounds like pure soap opera

[MIKE:]
I may cry

[DEXTER:]
Tune in tomorrow
What a swell party this is
What frills, what frocks

[MIKE:]
What broads!
[DEXTER:]
What furs, what rocks!

[MIKE:]
They're beautiful

[DEXTER:]
Why, I've never seen such gaity

[MIKE:]
Neither have I

[DEXTER:]
Its all just too, too exquis, really

[MIKE:]
This french champagne

[DEXTER:]
Domestic

[MIKE/DEXTER:]
So good for the brain

[MIKE:]
That's what I was going to say
[DEXTER:]
You know you're a brilliant fellow?

[MIKE:]
Why, thank you

[DEXTER:]
Drink up, chap
And please don't eat that glass, my friend
Have you heard about dear Blanche?
Got run down by an avalanche

[MIKE:]
No!

[DEXTER:]
Oh, don't worry, she's a game girl, you know
Got up and finished 4th

[MIKE:]
This kid's got guts

[DEXTER:]
Having a nice time? Grab a line

[MIKE:]
Have you heard that Mimsie Starr
[DEXTER:]
Oh, what now?

[MIKE:]
She got pinched in the Astor bar

[DEXTER:]
Sauced again, eh?

[MIKE:]
She was stoned

[DEXTER]
Well, did you ever?

[MIKE:]
Never!

[DEXTER/MIKE:]
What a swell party this is!

[MIKE:]
It's great

[DEXTER:]
Ah, it's great

[MIKE:]
It's grand

[DEXTER:]
So grand

[MIKE/DEXTER:]
It's wonderland!
La da da da...

[DEXTER:]
We sing

[MIKE:]
Oh, we sing

[DEXTER:]
So rare

[MIKE:]
So rare

[DEXTER/MIKE:]
Like old Camembert
Like Baba au Rhum!

[DEXTER:]
Bababababum

[MIKE:]
Don't dig that kind of crooning, chum!

[MIKE/DEXTER:]
Have you heard, it's in the stars
Next July we collide with Mars?
Well, did you ever?
What a swell party, a swell party
A swellegant, elegant party this is!

[DEXTER:]
I drink to your health

[MIKE:]
Nah, lets drink to your wealth

[DEXTER:]
You're my bon ami

[MIKE:]
Hey, that's french

[DEXTER:]
Liberty

[DEXTER/MIKE:]
Fraternity
Have you heard, it's in the stars
Next July we collide with Mars?
Well, did you ever?
What a swell party, swell party
Swellegant, elegant party this is!
