Gayety
often found its way into my town.
Night after night
it was filled with happy people.
Then happy people,
tall happy people,
short happy people
Old and young,
many races from many places
My tower was filled with
nice neighborly sounds
Phones ringing, knocks on the door
Many conversations compet
ing madly for attention
And the heartwarming sound
of people laughing out loud
We talked mostly about New York
The concerts we had attended
The humidity
The plays we had seen
The humidity
The musicals on Broadway
and the humidity
We had artists, we had businessmen,
we had musicians
And we had a wonderful waiter
A waiter named Noah
Noah, Noah
Where is Noah?
Where is Noah?
Where is Noah?
Where is Noah?
Here comes Noah now
Empty the ashtrays
Get out some ice
Cause we're havin' a party,
and the people are nice
Clear off the table, order some chow
Cause we're havin' a party,
right now
Empty the ashtrays,
get out some ice,
cause we're having a party,
and the people are nice.
Clear off the table,
order some chow,
cause we're having a party right now.
We're having a party,
empty the ashtrays,
we're having a party, get out some ice,
cause we're having a party,
and the people are nice, nice, nice.
Clear off the table,
clear off the table,
order some chow,
cause we're having a party
right now.
you
