You're not serious!

Hi!
Dreadful!
Fabulous!

I have invited the richest and the most influential
People in this town tonight
Not one of whom is as rich or influential
As you're going to be
I call them "The Blob."
They absorb everything

Meet the Blob
The bodies you read about
The ones who know everyone
That everyone knows

Hi!
Dreadful!
Fabulous!

Meet the blob
Not many and yet—

Oh

You never see one

What?
No!

They come as a set

Who? —
Him?

And we're in their debt

But what did you think?

'Cause honeybunch
They write the books
And put on the shows
And run the saloons
And design the clothes
They keep us natives on our toes

Albee!
Warhol!
Kurosawa!

Then they read the books
And go to the shows
And swamp the saloons
Wearing all the clothes—
What you might call a glut
But
They're the most important people
In the most important city
In the most important country
In the you-know-what!

Heavy!
Milltown!
Gestalt!
