(Smile for the photographers, darling. When the chandeliers flicker, we move) (The security team is staring at my dress. The coast is clear) (Did they really wire the laser grid to play a samba rhythm?) (Then let's dance our way straight through the lobby!) Walked through the pillars in my velvet coat Heavy gold medallion hanging on my throat Every pair of eyes in the gallery hall Turned around the minute that we passed the wall Two hundred thousand on a marble floor Sipping cold soda by the ballroom door I caught the glitter of the glass display Knowing we were walking with the prize away (I slipped the magnetic keycard right in my clutch) (They never notice that a lady has the golden touch) (Step to the rhythm while the brass horns blow) (Nobody moving till we finish up the royal show!) The chandeliers are swinging in the golden hall We dance the tango while the cameras fall The gala, moving on the marble floor (Marble floor) Taking what we came for, heading for the door (For the door) The gala, dancing in the velvet gown (Velvet gown) The most expensive couple in the downtown (In the town) Spin to the left while the alarms go wild (Go wild) Walking with the treasure and a royal smile (Royal smile) The guards in the tuxedos didn't have a clue They watched her spin a circle in her satin shoe I tipped my black hood to the man in front Carrying the golden trophy in the hunt (Check the back exit, the chauffeur is waiting outside) (We got two minutes flat to catch our getaway ride) (Keep the tempo rolling, don't rush the bar) (We make the getaway look like a superstar!) (Pocket the gold. Let's glide) The chandeliers are swinging in the golden hall We dance the tango while the cameras fall The gala, moving on the marble floor (Marble floor) Taking what we came for, heading for the door (For the door) The gala, dancing in the velvet gown (Velvet gown) The most expensive couple in the downtown (In the town) Spin to the left while the alarms go wild (Go wild) Walking with the treasure and a royal smile (Royal smile) (To a flawless performance, my king) (They will be talking about this gala till next winter) (Start the engine.) The gala, moving on the marble floor (Marble floor) Taking what we came for, heading for the door (For the door) The gala, dancing in the velvet gown (Velvet gown) The most expensive couple in the downtown (In the town) Spin to the left while the alarms go wild (Go wild) Walking with the treasure and a royal smile (Royal smile) Stepped through the double doors out into the cool air Leaving the museum with a story to share (The gala, yeah) (Step on the gas)
