Are you ready, are you ready

Knocky Parker told Bowlegged Sal

They all know how to kick it in Cal

They're playing this dope and this

Money tune

Dancing baby with a 7 mile broom

Things are bulging out the rafters

Like hell

Dddddown there at the Hush Hotel

They're jumping right out of their

Seats, dancing to the bran' new beat

Do... the Metropolitan Glide [2x]

The floor is polished and you

Momma's gone

You can quake and roll and moan

29 gypsies in a Caddilac stoned

Turn off the ringer on your cellular phone

Whip the air like a Rainbow Trout

Drag your tail pipe till you bottom out

Do... the Metropolitan Glide [4x]

The low bottom of the china moon

The black swan and the way too soon

Ace pocket and teh dog bone gone

The peacock and the mean black swan

The rain shower and high heeled shoe

Bombay money and I know I can do it

The sink hole and the victory dance

Its in the pocket in the real tight pants

Ddddo the Metropolitan Glide [2x]

Show your teeth bray like a falf

You kill me with your machine gun laugh

You make me trouble with the floor

THat's creaking

I"ve been ready to ka boom for a week

Put on your stockings and your powder and blush

Keep it all on the hush, hush, hush

Do... the Metropolitan Glide [2x]
