The door swung wide, I walked right in
I was long way off from where I'd been
From behind a desk, behind a cool, green cloud
A strange low voice told me then

[Chorus]
To join the crowd
At Uba's, Uba's, Uba's... fashions

Uba said to Jumbo, won't you take my child
I have walked a million miles
Changin' my clothes changin' what I wear
Used to worry 'bout things
Now I just don't care

[Chorus]

A long line formed at the door in the back
Everybody wanted a dress off the rack
They wanted something from her that made 'em shake
She screamed, "Everybody gotta pay
For what they take!"

[Chorus]

I'm leavin' town now and changin' my name
Never gonna be the same
Jumbo had a baby...lives on Blueberry Hill
And everybody got a momma

'Cause she's hangin' out there still
Uba's house of fashions...
