Eileen Brennan - Elegance lyrics

[CORNELIUS & BARNABY] Yes, New York It's really us Barnaby and Cornelius [IRENE & 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 [IRENE] 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 We got elegance If you ain't got elegance [ALL] You can never ever carry it off Middle cla** Don't speak of it 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 [CORNELIUS] Have you noticed when I hold my cup The saucer never moves [IRENE] And the way I keep my pinky up Indubitably proves [ALL] That we got elegance We've got built in elegance And with elegance We'll carry it off!
