Direct from waterloo station
May procced to their parlour suite

She's john jacob astor's second wife
She's only nineteen years old
And now she's married to a prominent man
Worth over a hundred and fifty million

They've only been married seven months
She's already seven months pregnant
And the scandal was such
They ran away to europe to avoid the publicity
Avoid the publicity

Aren't they modest
You'd never think by looking at them
That he and his brother own macy's department store
Own macy's department store
Outright
And he was very close advisor
To president grover cleveland
And served in the house of representatives
Two full terms
And that's his wife of forty years named ida
Sad she hasn't been well
So the two of them have been wintering
On the french riviera
French riviera
Mr benjamin guggenheim and party will find his customary

With his latest mistress
And they call that justice
They call that justice

No one really knows who she is
But the newspaper says she booked
The most expensive suite on the ship
And travels with fourteen steamer trunks
A medicine chest
Her personal pillows and sheets
And four little pekinese dogs
So she must be somebody
She must be somebody
Last call for boarding
This is the very last call for boarding
Lift up the ramp
Let go the lines
Raise up her colours and designs
Prepare for casting off
And through the port we'll slip
Each person standing at the rail
Let one great thought prevail
One single prayer
God bless this noble ship
