Do the Strand - Bryan Ferry, The Bryan Ferry Orchestra

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 prefer

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

Had your fill of Quadrilles

The Madison and cheap thrills

Bored with the Beguine

The samba isn’t your scene

They’re playing our tune

By the pale moon

We’re incognito

Down the Lido

And we like the Strand

Arabs at oasis

Eskimos and Chinese

If you feel blue

Look through Who’s Who

See La Goulue

And Nijinsky

Do the Strandsky

Weary of the Waltz

And mashed potato schmaltz

Rhododendron

Is a nice flower

Evergreen

It lasts forever

But it can’t beat Strand power

The Sphynx and Mona Lisa

Lolita and Guernica

Did the Strand
