You were simply yourself
Stuck in your youth
Dancing to jazz and
Falling in love
Isn’t it lonely
Meeting a friend
Finding a lover

That hat is too big
But it sure looks good
It’s the decadent look
For running wild
Singing in clubs
Or swinging the house down
Where nobody sees

Hang down to your knees
You wear the best clothes
Walk the best walk in your
Heavy shoes
Hold onto your head
You have the ideas
The hullabaloo
You are the zazous…ooo…ooo….ooo…ooo
You are the zazous
The zazous

How garish you look
How daring your smile
You’re wearing that sweater
She’s in a flared skirt
I’d walk a mile
To be you
Always a smile to see you

Hang down to your knees
You wear the best clothes
Walk the best walk in your
Heavy shoes
Hold onto your head
You have the ideas
The hullabaloo
You are the zazous
You are the zazous

But when the time comes
And you know it will
The nation will fall
And topple like cards
People will scream and run
From a world full of hurt
And the worksites
Will swallow you all

Hang down to your knees
Wear the best clothes
Walk the best walk
In your Heavy shoes
Hold onto your head
You have the ideas
The hullabaloo
You are the zazous
You are the zazous
