So many people
Crowded in one room
Best dress on
Tailored all in tune
'Oh that's a nice shirt'
'Do I look fat?'
'Don't sit there
That's reserved for Pat'
'When can we dance
Did you have a nice day'
'I'm so hungry
I could eat a cat'
'Have you met Bob
He's a nice sort of chap'
'I'll bring him around
And we can have a quick chat'
'Oh that music's so loud
I can't hear you talk'
'Really then lets take a short walk
Get away from the mob, a quick trip outside'
Cough cough, 'where's the view dear?'
Cough cough, wave's the smoke away
Cough cough,' Move a little left dear'
Cough cough,' NO, move this way.'
Cough cough, 'T'was better inside dear'
'No smoke to shoo away
'Now there's too much noise dear'
'But no sight of any friend'
'But all the people here Dear
I though they were your friends.'
'No no, they're just the IN crowd
So the party it must be great'
'Wearing all their brand new dresses
A fashionistas ball'
A'll a dripping in their jewellery
Oh don't they look fine, hum.. not at all'
'It's too bad that its too late dear'
'But it's only quarter to nine!'
'Perhaps the dancing will start soon dear
We can twirl on the floor'
'Trip the light that's fantastic
That's what we've come here for'
'No no, there's too much crush here
And here they come some more'
'To part of the IN crowd
They were left outside of the door'
Now all of them want IN too
There'll be no space to move around'
'Seems a pity that we're IN dear
When OUT is homeward bound'
'Who cares about fashion
Who cares about jewels'
'Madness abounds here
We're surrounded by all the fools'
'Lets flee while there's still time dear
I don't want to get crushed'
'I'll love you forever
But the rooms its going to bust'
I agree, your so right dear'
'To be IN, Is to be OUT'
'Lets flee for our lives dear'
'Can't hear you, better shout'
So she grabbed his fine gloved hand there
And together they did flee
Far from the IN crowd
As far, as far can be
No more partying forever
It now fills them with deep dread
.
The sham hollow greetings
It just messes with the head.
And the crush of those people
As fake smiles turn into frowns
No friends they found
For what is in an IN crowd
When forever you're OUT
Tis better with your friends
Than to be IN... YES lets be OUT
