On a Silver Tray
Get me back, get me real good
Get me at my very best time
Only in the rarest of circumstances
Will our water turn into wine
You've an eye for the arts
You keep your lawyer on the phone, too
No one likes a story like the man in the bushes
I bet he's gonna talk about you
There's no business too intimate
Lobby me, say, why am I to quit?
Dinner party, bid our guests they stay
And bring out the refreshments on a silver tray
Tell the servants we're waiting,
I'll say a toast in Latin and wait,
Leave the food upon your platters till
Every guest has said their grace
What a way to gossip
What a way to set affairs straight
What a controversy arrived to our table
Bite your tongue and stay past eight
There's no business too intimate
Lobby me, say, why am I to quit?
Dinner party, bid our guests they stay
And bring out the refreshments on a silver tray
Make, make me as a conversation piece
Make me as your conversation piece
Get me at my very best time
Only in the rarest of circumstances
Will our water turn into wine
You've an eye for the arts
You keep your lawyer on the phone, too
No one likes a story like the man in the bushes
I bet he's gonna talk about you
There's no business too intimate
Lobby me, say, why am I to quit?
Dinner party, bid our guests they stay
And bring out the refreshments on a silver tray
Tell the servants we're waiting,
I'll say a toast in Latin and wait,
Leave the food upon your platters till
Every guest has said their grace
What a way to gossip
What a way to set affairs straight
What a controversy arrived to our table
Bite your tongue and stay past eight
There's no business too intimate
Lobby me, say, why am I to quit?
Dinner party, bid our guests they stay
And bring out the refreshments on a silver tray
Make, make me as a conversation piece
Make me as your conversation piece
