Elegance Lyrics

Cornelius & barnaby:

Yes, new york

It's really us

Barnaby and cornelius

Mrs. molloy & minnie:

All the guests of mr. hackl are

Feelin' great and look spectacular

All:

What a knack

There is to that

Acting like a born aristocrat

We got elegance

If you ain't got elegance

You can never ever carry it off

Cornelius:

All who are

Well-bred agree

Minnie fay

Has pedigree

Mrs. molloy:

Exercise your wildest whims tonight

We are out with diamond jims tonight

Minnie:

Could they be

Misleading us?

Cornelius & barnaby:

Silver spoons were used for feeding us

All:

We got elegance

If you ain't got elegance

You can never ever carry it off

[dance interlude]

All:

Middle class

Savoir faire

We reek of it

Some were born with rags and patches but

We use dollar bills for matches and

Minnie:

Vanderbilt

Kowtows to us

Cornelius:

J.p. morgan scrapes and bows to us

All:

We've got elegance

We were born with elegance

Barnaby:

I behave like Walter Raleigh

When the streets are full of mud

Minnie Fay:

And the bluest huckleberry isn't bluer than my blood

Irene Malloy:

Have you noticed when I hold my cup

The saucer never moves

Cornelius:

And the way I keep my pinky up

Indubitably proves that

All:

We got elegance

We got built in elegance

And with elegance...elegance...

Elegance...elegance...elegance

We'll carry it off!

All:

We got elegance

If you ain't got elegance

You can never ever carry it off

We got elegance...
