Schmoozing Lyrics

Hey, isn't that so-and-so?

Over there at the table

Isn't she the head of Such-and-Such Productions?

Sitting there with what's his name

From what's that record label?

Excuse me while I make my introductions



Schmoozing, schmoozing

Check out the smooth technique I'm using

Schmoozing, schmoozing

Smiling, shaking hands, and boozing



Everyone who's anyone

& others not invited

Were gathered for the party by the pool

I'm a friend of so and so's

That's all I had to say

They said any friend of so and so's was cool



So I'm schmoozing - schmoozing

Watch me work the room, I'm cruising

Schmoozing, schmoozing

Smiling, shaking hands, and boozing



Your name tag's flipped around

How can I tell if you're important?

General pleasantries I will exchange with you

My cheek muscles are tired

How ‘bout that rain we had last night?

I heard there was a chance of rain this evening too



Schmoozing, schmoozing

Remembering all these names is so confusing

Schmoozing, schmoozing

Smiling, shaking hands, and boozing



Have you tried the bean dip?

And who's party is this?

And is everyone a songwriter here?

Who's the big cheese over there

Everybody's sucking up to?

And hey, man, where'd you get the beer?



Schmoozing, schmoozing

I wonder whose expense account they're using

Schmoozing, schmoozing

Smiling, shaking hands, and boozing
