Lyrics

[Intro] There's a new sensation A fabulous creation A danceable solution To teenage revolution [Verse 1] Do the Strand, love When you feel love It's the new way That's why we say "Do the Strand" [Chorus 1] Do it on the tables Quaglino's place or Mabel's [Verse 2] Slow and gentle Sentimental All styles served here Louis Seize he prefer Laissez-faire Le Strand [Chorus 2] Tired of the Tango Fed up with Fandango [Verse 3] Dance on moonbeams Slide on rainbows In furs or blue jeans You know what I mean Do the Strand Ooh [Bridge] Had your fill of Quadrilles The Madison and cheap thrills Bored with the Beguine The Samba isn't your scene [Verse 4] They're playing our tune By the pale moon We're incognito Down the Lido And we like the Strand [Chorus 3] Arabs at oases Eskimos and Chinese [Verse 5] If you feel blue Look through Who's Who See La Goulue And Nijinsky Do the Strandsky [Chorus 4] Weary of the Waltz And mashed potato schmaltz [Verse 6] Rhododendron Is a nice flower Evergreenin' It lasts forever But it can't beat Strand power [Outro] The Sphynx and Mona Lisa Lolita and Guernica Did the Strand
