a danceable solution to teenage revolution.

Do the Strand, love ,when you feel love,

it�s the new way, that�s why we say, do the Strand.

All styles served here, Louis Seize we prefer,

laissez-faire Le Strand.

3. Tired of the tango, fed up with fandango,
Bb F Bb F
dance on moonbeams, slide on rainbows,
G D F C
in furs or blue jeans, you know what I mean,
D E D
do the Strand.

4. Had your fill of quadrilles, the madison and cheap thrills,
D# F# G# G D# F# G# G
bored with the beguine, the samba isn�t your scene.
Bb F Bb F
They�re playing our tune, by the pale moon.

We�re incognito down the Lido,

and we like the Strand.

if you feel blue, look through Who�s Who.

See La Goulue, and Nijinsky,
D E
do the Strandsky.

6. Weary of the waltz, and mashed potato schmaltz.
Bb F Bb F
Rhododendron is a nice flower,
G D F C D E
evergreen it lasts forever , but it can�t beat Strand power.
D# F# G# G D# F# G# G
The Sphinx and Mona Lisa, Lolita and Guernica,
D# F# G# G
did the Strand.
