Lyrics
War is done, War is won, Gone, and in its place
Reverie, and all we see are Happy faces.
Nevermore, never pour bubbles down the drain
Raise your glass to peace at last, it’s
TIME FOR CHAMPAGNE
Limousines, nightclub scenes, Royal Way to-do,
Dining at the Bristol, but for cocktails: Belle-Vue,
Beautiful! Bountiful! How could two complain?
Paderewski’s back in town it’s
TIME FOR CHAMPAGNE
Qui Pro Quo is the cabaret,
Best of show every Saturday,
Place to go and to get away to.
Rubenstein at the podium,
Stage and screen Filharmoni ‘em,
Valentin-OH! Pandemonium,
A taste for every point of view.
Don’t be shy, We’ll get by,, Like two honeys do
Sweeter than my favorite Cameroon (I love you)
Drink those stars, Strum guitars, Let us entertain!
Lovely here to revel here it’s TIME FOR CHAMPAGNE
