[Verse 3]
Up and up she goes
Our Amanda Jones
I said up and up and up and up
She looks quite delightfully stoned
She's the darling of the discotheque crowd
Of her lineage she's rightfully proud, Miss Amanda Jones
[Bridge]

The balls and the dinners and shows
The little girl, she just wanders about
'Til it's time for her coming out, Miss Amanda Jones
[Outro]
Round and round and round
Round and round and round
Round and round and round
Round and round and round
Round and round and round
Round and round and round
