SEATS OF THE FLIGHTY: THE FOURTH CHAIR, by                    
First Line: A chair against a ballroom wall
Last Line: But none at a dance for me!
Subject(s): Chairs; Dancing & Dancers


A chair against a ballroom wall --
Oh, that's no place for me,
For sitting down's no mark at all
Of popularity.

I like to sit in a big game seat,
Or a steamer chair at sea,
Or a chair for a bob in a barber shop,
But none at a dance for me!
