The Debutante's Ball - Harpers Bizarre

In a hall filled with light

So poised and polite

They twist and they twirl

In dresses of white

They dance through the night

In their tight little world

Faces all a wonder

As they play the game

And all you need is a number

Following your name

Oh come one and all to the debutante's ball

It's very refined

See pale wooden faces

And all the best places all standing in line

Oh I think Quentin B Taylor the Third is here

And I see John Thomas Bailey the Ninth

And I guess every rich girl in the world is here

And they all have the time of their life

Oh if you're invited you should be delighted

Not everyone's asked to come

No one gets stoned it's all chaperoned

And it's just good clean fun

Isn't it a wonder

That to play the game

All you need is a number

Following your name

Ta da da da da da da da da

Da da da ta da da da

What a wonderful sight

It just seems to be right

That there's something to do for the rich people too

So light up the hall there's dancing for all

At the debutante's ball
