ETCHES My dear Mr. Latimer! Prepare to greet out clientele Our meeting is imminent Our having just rung the dinner bell It won't be a novelty We mostly have seen them all before... Prepare for the usual You should be aware of what's in store... We've served them on the Baltic And the Oceanic, Olympic and Majestic And today's the same There's nothing changed... Mr. Astor takes his toast dry Mrs. Straus likes the grouse With the sauce on the side And the Wideners love Kidney pie Bring it hot, if it's not They'll be fit to be tied They're accustomed to the best Of all that money buys The world of free enterprise Has given this privilege to the rich... When they're idle They're entitled to the luxury Which we provide That's forever the source of out pride... Which is why we're always there With our especial form of care For evey hungry millionaire By now they've all arrived... MALE 1ST CLASS PASSENGERS We're sailing aboard the greatest ship To ever sail the seas The hull and the keel imperviously Stronger by degrees FEMAL 1ST CLASS PASSENGERS Magnificent crystal chandeliers Parquet in all the floors ALL The ceiling is Jacobean A decor the world adores Remarkable ship Oh what a ship! Remarkable keel Oh what a keel! Remarkable steel Oh what a ship! If it could be out in a phrase... it's "What a remarkable age this is!" MALE 1ST CLASS PASSENGERS A fellow's invented see-through film He calls it "cellophane!" ALL Another has built a parachute For jumping out of an airplane! Remarkable things flow endlessly From out the human brain! Indeed And what a remarkable age this is! ETCHES Keep the Captain's table pristine Where wer seat the elite whom we happily serve Here they dine on fine French cuisine It's the Creme de la Creme's Exclusive preserve! It's the pleasure of the leisure class's greatest wits To be where the Captain sits When taking their dinner on the sea Giving deference to their preferences is our greatest art! We play a part In a perfectly worling machine You should ever be aware This is a privilege great and rare A special burden that we bear In our respective lives! MILLIONAIRES Remarkable! U.S. Steel Is splitting shares a five to four! Monopoly makes the industry Far better than before! MILLIONAIRES WIVES Attending the coronation of King George the Fifth was grand ETCHES And afterwards it's off to Monaco To frolic in the sand ALL Remarkable talk Oh what a talk! Remarkable times Oh what a time! Remarkable world Oh what a world! So much to surprise and amaze... And... MILLIONIARES & WIVES What a remarkable time What a remarkable world What a remarkable age... ETCHES & STAFF The hull and the keel Impervious Magnificent crystal Chandeliers A fellow's invented see- Through film And what a remarkable Age... ALL This... Is!
