We're the top! We are parabolic-
We're the top! We're a Goldman frolic-
We're the neoprene that fits in clean and tight-
We're a Calder Ballet-- a column lally-- a brand new site.
We are Drake- We are all Milwaukee-
Take the cake, though not Yamasaukee-

**

Other architects take time out for sex- You bet!
But, oh baby, we are always en charette!

We're the top- We're screens by Bertoia- 
We're the top- We're Chicago's lawyers-
We're the curtain wall- We're the research hall and stairs-
We're luminous ceiling- we're the Lutherans kneeling
At evening prayers.
IBM- Up in Minnesota-
Supermen- We are General Motor-

Other architects take time out for sex- You bet!
But, oh baby, we are always en charette!

We're the top- we're a cantilever-
We're the top- we are Earle and Keefer-
We're a bright glazed brick- we're eighth-inch thick concrete-
We are Herman Miller- We're the Miller villa-
We're radiant heat.
Pressed steel dome- we're aluminum panel-
Paulsen's home- we're an air-duct channel-

We're the top- We are competitions-
We're the top- We're program revisions-
We're the Music School- We're reflecting pool at Drake-
We're Vassar's dorms- we are audit'orms- the GM lake.
We're at the top- We're Yale's rink for hockey-
Model shop- when it's feeling cocky-

Other architects take time out for sex- You bet!
But, oh baby, we are always en charette!

We're the top- We're Lodge of Perfection-
We're the top- We're a G M section-
We're a rendering of anything you say-
We're a Cubitz drawing- Milwaukee's shoring-
TWA!
Embassies- we are Oslo's granite-
Kiley's trees- we are Ruth and Janet-

Other architects take time out for sex- You bet!
But, oh baby we are always en charette!
