Lyrics Ray Charles – Ye Lunchtime Follies

Text:

Galahad
Prithee, One, Two, Three, Four, Five,
Six, Seven,
Eight, Nine, Ten, Gadzooks, and

Eleven.
Prithee, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta,
Bend thy back, and pull in thy belta.
And by gums, by gees, by gollys,
Work ye out in ye Lunchtime Follies.

All
Instead of lunch-we get ye Lunchtime Follies.

Galahad
This is station B-O-S-S
Teaching you to-

All
Yes! Yes! Yes!

Galahad
I give you lunchtime relaxation
So you won’t need a summer vacation.

All
Prithee, One, Two, Three, Four, Five,
Six, Seven,
Eight, Nine, Ten, Gadzooks, and Eleven.

Galahad
Today the boogie-woogie has become a bugaboo.
We swing from swing to saccharine,

From saccharine to goo-
To the sentimental singer with a sentimental song.
Our monarch is a crooner and our king can do no wrong.
