She acted like the bell of the ball
As conceited as she could be
She wore a frilly low cut dress
That was way above her sexy knee

She walked with grace and swung her hips
As she headed for the ladies room
And there she put on lots of makeup
 Knowing all the men would swoon

She came out so sure of herself
Looking for the hunk that she'd choose
But not one man seemed to dance with her
 For toilet paper dragged from her stylish shoes

 But that was long ago and far away
 With most of my memories gone
But this one brings a smile to my face
And The Band Played On
