text: Are you ready? Are you ready? Are you ready?
  Knocky Parker told Bowlegged Sal
  They all know how to kick it in Cal
  Theyre playing this dope and this money tune
  Dancing baby with a seven-mile broom
  Things are bulging out the rafters like hell
  D-d-down there at the Hush Hotel
  Theyre jumping right out of their seats
  Dancing to the brand new beat
  Do the Metropolitan Glide
  Do the Metropolitan Glide
  The floor is polished and your Momma is gone
  You can quake and roll and moan
  Twenty-nine gypsies in a Cadillac stoned
  Turn off the ringer on your cellular phone
  Whip the air like a rainbow trout
  Drag your tailpipe till you bottom out
  Do the Metropolitan Glide
  Do the Metropolitan Glide
  Do the Metropolitan Glide
  Do the Metropolitan Glide
  The low bottom of the China moon
  The black swan and the way too soon
  Ace pocket and the dog bone gone
  The peacock and the mean black swan
  The rain shower and high-heeled shoe
  Bombay money and I know I can do it
  The sinkhole and the victory dance
  Its in the pocket in the real tight pants
  Do the Metropolitan Glide
  Do do do the Metropolitan Glide
  The Metropolitan
  The Metropolitan
  Show your teeth, bray like a calf
  You kill me with your machine gun laugh
  You make me tremble with the floor thats creaking
  Ive been ready to kaboom for a week
  Put on your stockings and your powder and blush
  Keep it all on the hush, hush, hush
  Do the Metropolitan Glide
  Do do the Metropolitan Glide
  Do the Metropolitan Glide
  Do the Metropolitan Glide
  The Metropolitan
  Do the Metropolitan Glide
  Do do
