VP_015190 Verse 1Hip hooray I feel delighted, Yesterday I was invited to a swell affair, All the movie stars were there. Oh what fun, the party lasted Till the break of dawn, Famous players turned to cabareters, How they fooled and carried on. Chorus 1Dancing at the moving picture ball, some scenario, Great big stars paraded 'round the hall, They were merry, Oh, Handsome Wallace Reid, Stepped out full of speed, And Theda Bara, Was a terror, She "vamped the little lady" So did Alice Brady; Douglas Fairbanks shimmied on one hand, Like an acrobat, Mary Pickford did a toe dance grand, and, Charlie with his feet, Stepped all over poor Blanche Sweet, Dancing at the moving picture ball. Verse 2Ev'ry girl a handsome looker, Had a dance with Mister Zukor Mister Thomas Ince, Stepped around just like a prince. William Fox, and Jessie Lasky Both joined in the fun, Big directors mingled with the actors, Why the whole bunch seemed like one. Chorus 2Dancing at the moving picture ball, some scenario, Great big stars paraded 'round the hall, They were merry, Oh, Handsome Wallace Reid, Stepped out full of speed, And Theda Bara, Was a terror, She "vamped the little lady" So did Alice Brady; Douglas Fairbanks shimmied on one hand, Like an acrobat, Mary Pickford did a toe dance grand, and, Sennet's bathing girls were there Each one was a little "bear" Dancing at the moving picture ball.
