champagne on Ice
Champagne on ice!
Long stemmed flute glasses, lead crystal.
Thick melt in the mouth Chocolate!
Cigarette in long ivory holder!
Women with colourful feathers…
Adorning their short cropped hair!
Tall and thin with a stately air!
Silks and satins, long pearl ropes galore!
Some of them reach almost to the floor!
They twirl them and twist them during the dance!
Beads and embroidery a style of the day!
Clothes of high fashion, for that is their way,
Fine porcelain dishes, delicate and thin!
Best Irish linen on the table is laid,
For it the highest money paid!
Waiters and maids to attend every whim,
Glasses refilled often up to the brim.
I think you'll agree with me when I state…
That those of high society never have to wait!
But you will find that money…
Is all that they know…
They have no other cares in life,
No character to show!
For shallow their life is...
In their social whirl
