Bing Crosby (with Frank Sinatra) - Well Did You Evah? Lyrics
(from "High Society" - 1956 American romantic musical comedy film)
FRANK:
I have heard among this clan
You are called the forgotten man
BING:
Is that what they're saying, well did you evah!
What a swell party this is
FRANK:
And have you heard the story of
A boy, a girl, unrequited love
BING: Sounds like pure soap opera
FRANK: I may cry
BING:
Tune In Tomorrow
What a swell party this is
What frails, what frocks
FRANK: What broads!
BING: What furs, what rocks!
FRANK: They're bootiful
BING: Why I've never seen such gaity
FRANK: Neither have I
BING: It's all just too, too risque really
FRANK: This french champagne
BING: Domestic
BOTH: So good for the brain
FRANK: Thats what I was going to say
BING: You know you're a brilliant fellow?
FRANK: Why thankyou
BING:
Pick up jack. please don't eat that glass my friend
Have you heard, about dear Blanche?
Got run down by an avalanche
FRANK: No!
BING:
Oh don't worry,
Shes a game girl you know, got up and finished 4th
FRANK: The kids got guts
BING: Having a nice time? Grab a line!
FRANK: Have you heard that Mimsie Starr
BING: What now?
FRANK: She got pinched in the Astor bar
BING: Sloshed again, eh?
FRANK: She was stoned
BING: Well, did you evah?
FRANK: Never!
BOTH: What a swell party this is!
FRANK: Hey, check out that act!
BING:
That's a lovely dress
You think I can talk her out of it?
FRANK: It's great
BING: Aah it's great
FRANK: So grand!
BING: So grand
BOTH: It's wonderland!
FRANK: We sing. We sing.
BING: So rare
FRANK: So rare
BOTH:
Like old camembert
Like baba au rhum!
BING: Don't dig that kind of crooning chum!
BOTH:
Have you heard? It's in the stars
Next July we collide with Mars
Well, did you evah?
What a swell party, a swell party
A swelligant, elegant party this is!
BING: I drink to your health
FRANK: Naw, lets drink to your wealth
BING: You're my bon'amie
FRANK: Hey, thats french
BOTH: A liberty fraternity
Have you heard? It's in the stars
Next July we collide with Mars
Well, did you evah?
What a swell party, swell party
Swelligant, elegant party this is!
