Fats Waller — Pent Up In A Penthouse

All pent up in a penthouse, yeah Say all pent up in a penthouse Table laid ready for two Our date was at seven It's now past eleven Oh baby, what's happened to you? All pent up in a penthouse Cocktails are ready to shake Dinner's untasted, the evening's been wasted Is this your idea of a break? Say I keep phoning your apartment Keep on getting no reply How long must I wait While you celebrate With some other lucky guy? All pent up in a penthouse By midnight if you don't arrive Say, I'll rush to the window I'll throw the table The dinner, the cocktails, the orchids, and maybe myself Down to the sidewalk Turn left On Riverside Drive Send me on out there In the morning Yes, yes [Scatting] [Instrumental Break] Say all pent up in a penthouse By midnight if you don't arrive Say I'll rush to the window I'll throw the table The dinner, the cocktails, the orchids, and maybe myself Down to the sidewalk, turn left, yeah On Riverside Drive Yes
