There’s a new sensation, a fabulous creation
A danceable solution to teenage revolution
Do the Strand, love, when you feel love
It’s the new way, that’s why we say
Do the Strand

Do it on the tables, Quaglino’s place or Mabel’s
Slow and gentle, sentimental, all styles served here
Louis Seize he prefers laissez-faire le Strand

Tired of the Tango, fed up with Fandango
Dance on moonbeams, slide on rainbows
In furs or blue jeans, you know what I mean
Do the Strand

You know what I mean, do the Strand
Yippieayeeehh ho oooh!
We’re playing our tune by the full moon
We’re incognito down the Lido
And we like the Strand

Had your fill of quadrilles, the Madison and cheap thrills
Bored with the Beguine, the Samba isn’t your scene
If you feel blue look through Who’s Who
See La Goulue and Nijinsky, do the Strandsky

Weary of the Waltz, mashed potato schmaltz
The Sphinx and Mona Lisa, Lolita and Guernica
Rhododendron is a nice flower
Evergreen it lasts forever
But it can’t beat the Strand-power
No no no no, do the Strand!
