By Strauss

Away with the music of Broadway Be off with your Irving Berlin Oh I give no quarter to Kern or Cole Porter And Gershwin keeps pounding on tin How can I be civil when hearing this drivel It's only for nightclubbin' souses Oh give me the free 'n' easy waltz that is Vienneasy and Go tell the band If they want a hand The waltz must be Strauss's Ya, ya ya, give me oom pa pah When I want a melody Lilting through the house Then I want a melody By Strauss It laughs, it sings, the world is in rhyme Swinging to three quarter time Let the Danube flow along And the Fledermauss Keep the wine and give me song By Strauss By Jove, by Jing, by Strauss is the thing So I say to ha cha cha, heraus Just give me your oom pa pah, by Strauss Let the Danube flow along And the Fledermauss Keep the wine and give me song By Strauss By Jove, by Jing, by Strauss is the thing So I say to ha cha cha, heraus Just give me your oom pa pah,
