Barbra Streisand - Pretty Women (The Ladies Who Lunch) lyrics
[Barbra Streisand - Pretty Women The Ladies Who Lunch lyrics]
Pretty women fascinating
Sippin' coffee dancing, pretty women
Are a wonder, pretty women
Sitting in the window or
Standing on the stair
Something in them cheers the air
Pretty women silhouetted
Stay within you glancing stay forever
Breathing lightly, pretty women pretty women
Blowing out their candles or
Combing out their hair even when they leave
They still are there they're there
Sipping coffee
Here's to the ladies who lunch
Everybody laugh
Lounging in their caftans and
Planning a brunch on their own behalf
Off to the gym then to a fitting
Claiming they're fat and looking grim
Cause they've been sitting choosing a hat
I'll drink to that!
Here's to the girls who just watch
Aren't they the best when they get depressed
It's a bottle of scotch plus a little jest!
Another chance to disapprove
Another brilliant zinger
Another reason not to move
Another vodka stinger i'll drink to that!
Here's to the girls who play wife
Aren't they too much!
Keeping house but clutching a copy of "Life"
Just to keep in touch
The ones who follow the rules
And meet themselves at the schools
Too busy to know that they're fools
Aren't they a gem! I'll drink to them!
Let's all drink too
Pretty women, fascinating
How they make a man sing
Here's to the girls on the go
Everybody tries look into their eyes
And you'll see what they know everybody dies
A toast to that invincible bunch
The dinosaurs surviving the crunch
Let's hear it for the ladies who lunch
Everybody rise everybody rise
Pretty women at their mirrors
In their gardens on committees, telephoning
Window shopping, table hopping
Pretty women giving parties never stopping
Gossip swapping, capsule popping
Everybody rise, everybody rise
Everybody rise, everybody rise-
Rise-rise-rise pretty women rise!
Sippin' coffee dancing, pretty women
Are a wonder, pretty women
Sitting in the window or
Standing on the stair
Something in them cheers the air
Pretty women silhouetted
Stay within you glancing stay forever
Breathing lightly, pretty women pretty women
Blowing out their candles or
Combing out their hair even when they leave
They still are there they're there
Sipping coffee
Here's to the ladies who lunch
Everybody laugh
Lounging in their caftans and
Planning a brunch on their own behalf
Off to the gym then to a fitting
Claiming they're fat and looking grim
Cause they've been sitting choosing a hat
I'll drink to that!
Here's to the girls who just watch
Aren't they the best when they get depressed
It's a bottle of scotch plus a little jest!
Another chance to disapprove
Another brilliant zinger
Another reason not to move
Another vodka stinger i'll drink to that!
Here's to the girls who play wife
Aren't they too much!
Keeping house but clutching a copy of "Life"
Just to keep in touch
The ones who follow the rules
And meet themselves at the schools
Too busy to know that they're fools
Aren't they a gem! I'll drink to them!

Everybody rise, everybody rise-
Rise-rise-rise pretty women rise!
