Pretty women*/the ladies who lunch**

*Pretty women Fascinating Sippin coffee Dancing, pretty women Pretty women Are a wonder, pretty women Sitting in the window or Standing on the stair Something in them cheers the air Pretty women Silhouetted Stay within you Glancing stay forever Breathing lightly, pretty women, Pretty women Blowing out their candles or Combing out their hair Even when they leave They still are there They?re there **Sipping coffee Here's to the ladies who lunch Everybody Laugh Lounging in their caftans and Planning a brunch On their own behalf Off to the gym Then to a fitting, Claiming they're fat And looking grim, Cause they've been sitting Choosing a hat I'll drink to that! Here's to the girls who just watch Aren't they the best When they get depressed, It's a bottle of scotch Plus a little jest! Another chance to disapprove Another brilliant zinger Another reason not to move Another vodka stinger I'll drink to that! Here's to the girls who play wife Aren't they too much! Keeping house but clutching a copy of "Life" Just to keep in touch The ones who follow the rules And meet themselves at the schools Too busy to know that they're fools Aren't they a gem! I'll drink to them! Let's all drink to... *Pretty women, fascinating How they make a man sing... **Here's to the girls on the go, Everybody tries Look into their eyes And you'll see what they know, Everybody dies A toast to that invincible bunch The dinosaurs surviving the crunch Let's hear it for the ladies who lunch Everybody rise Everybody rise, *Pretty women at their mirrors In their gardens On committees, telephoning Window shopping table hopping Pretty women giving parties Never stopping Gossip swapping, capsule popping ** Everybody rise, everybody rise, Everybody rise, everybody rise- Rise-rise-rise... Pretty women rise!
