Washington Twist Lyrics

Washington Twist lyrics

Doing the Washington twist

Doing the twist with a twist

No one is set till they finally get

On the President's favorite list

President's doubts while the ins and the outs

Keep on doing the Washington Twist



Gentlemen loaded with charm

Seemingly meaning no harm

But while they're there, you're becoming aware

That they're quietly twisting your arm

Gentle in tone while promoting a loan

Which is part of the Washington Twist



Congressmen's lips that are pucked

Waiting for plums to be plucked

Legal concerns, making out their returns

With expenses they'd like to deduct

Drinking a toast to the host with the most

While they're doing the Washington Twist
