I'd like to propose a toast Here's to the ladies who lunch... Everybody laugh Lounging in their caftans and planning a brunch On their own behalf Off to the gym Then to a fitting Claiming they're fat And looking grim 'Cause they've been sitting Choosing a hat- Does anyone still wear a hat? I'll drink to that And here's to the girls who play smart- Aren't they a gas? Rushing to their classes in optical art Wishing it would pass Another long exhausting day Another thousand dollars A matinee, a Pinter play Perhaps a piece of Mahler's- I'll drink to that And one for Mahler Here's to the girls who play wife- Aren't they too much? Keeping house but clutching a copy of LIFE Just to keep in touch The ones who follow the rules And meet themselves at the schools Too busy to know that they're fools- Aren't they a gem? I'll drink to them Let's all drink to them! And here's to the girls who just watch- Aren't they the best? When they get depressed, it's a bottle of Scotch Plus a little jest Another chance to disapprove Another brilliant zinger Another reason not to move Another vodka stinger- Aaaahh-I'll drink to that So here's to the girls on the go- Everybody tries Look into their eyes and you'll see what they know: Everybody dies A toast to that invincible bunch The dinosaurs surviving the crunch- Let's hear it for the ladies who lunch! Everybody rise! Rise! Rise! Rise! Rise! Rise! Rise! Rise! Rise! Larry, I would like a cigarette
