Oh Jackie! What are you doing here at Waldorf Clubs?
Hahaha, born to champagne but doomed to wallow in bathtub gin
My father was a banker
Yes, so wealth and class and glory!
He showed affection now and then
But (uh) that's another story
He knocked me down a peg
I'm the proverbial 'bad egg'
Little Jackie was forced to fund his lonely way
But no complaining here
I'm versatile and proud of it
My gift is being dexterous
My daddy called me 'devil'
But, I call me 'ambisextrous' (woo!)
I like it coarse and cheap
I'm the proverbial 'black sheep' (baa)
How do I survive it all you say?
Well
So long as I got my nice looks
So long as I got my own hair
So long as I got my rhythm
So long as I got my cup filled
So long as I say, "I love you"
I'm breezin' through another day
It's lunch with the Fitzgeralds
Then cocktails with Dos Passos
Then off to sup with Gerdie
Then a nightcap at Picassos!
Uh! The gay life leaves me glum
Tonight I need to slum
How do I survive it all you say?
Hahahaha
Well
So long as I, so long as I, so long as I, so long as I!
So long as I got a free hand!
So long as I got a chilled glass!
So long as I keep my sails up
So long as I keep my eyes closed
So long as I say, "I love you"
And you, and you, and you, and you
And you (mhm, yes)
I'm breezin' through another
Day!
