Ladies Who Lunch - Alana Allen, Anna Kendrick

I’d like to propose a toast

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

Does anyone still wear a hat?

I’ll drink to that

Here’s to the girls who play smart--

Aren’t they a gas?

Rushing to their classes

In optical art

Wishing it would pass

Another long exhausting day

Another thousand dollars

A matinee, a Pinter play

Perhaps a piece of Mahler’s

I’ll drink to that

And one for Mahler

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

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!

I’ll drink to that

So, 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!

Rise!

Rise!

Rise!

Rise!

Rise!

Rise!

Rise!

Rise!
