WHO'S GONNA BE THERE WHEN THE DUKE HITS THE CITY?
WHERE ARE THE LADIES GONNA GO AND BE PRETTY?
WHEN IS THE PARTY GETTIN' TO THE NITTY GRITTY?
IF YOU WANNA GET SKINNY (CHORUS) ASK PRINCE LENNY
WHEN IS CAB COMING BACK TO ST. LOUIE?
WHY WAS LOUIS WITH THAT HIGH YELLA FLOOZIE?
WHO GAVE BILLIE THAT NEW HAIR DOOIE?
IF YOU WANNA GET SKINNY (CHORUS) ASK PRINCE LENNY
I HAVE GOT MY FINGER ON THE PULSE OF THIS TOWN.
I ALWAYS KNOW WHAT'S UP BEFORE IT GOES DOWN.
I INFORM THE MASSES ABOUT THE LATEST SOUND.
AND IT COULD BE LITIGATED,
I AM SO SOPHISTICATED,
CULTURE WOULD BE CONSTIPATED WITHOUT ME AROUND.
WHEN IT COMES TO THE SOUNDS OF TOMORROW?
WHOSE OPINION WILL THEY BEG STEAL OR BORROW?
WHY ARE YOU STILL LISTENING TO GUY LOMBARDO?
IF YOU WANNA GET SKINNY (CHORUS) ASK PRINCE LENNY
