Elegance
[BARNABY & CORENLIUS]
Yes, New York, it's really us
Barnaby and Cornelius

[IRENE & MINNIE]
All the guests of Mr. Hackl are
Feelin' great and look spectacular

[BARNABY, CORENLIUS, IRENE, & MINNIE]
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

[CORENLIUS]
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?

[BARNABY & CORENLIUS]
Silver spoons were used for feeding us
[BARNABY, CORNELIUS, IRENE, & MINNIE]
We got elegance if you ain't got elegance
You can never ever carry it off

Middle class, don't speak of it
Savior 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

[BARNABY]
J.P. Morgan scrapes and bows to us

[BARNABY, CORNELIUS, IRENE, & MINNIE]
We've got elegance
We were born with elegance

[CORENLIUS]
Have you noticed when I hold my cup
The saucer never moves

[IRENE]
And the way I keep my pinky up
Indubitably proves that
[BARNABY, CORNELIUS, IRENE, & MINNIE]
We got elegance
We got built-in elegance
And with elegance

[CORENLIUS]
Elegance!

[IRENE]
Elegance!

[BARNABY]
Elegance!

[MINNIE]
Elegance!

[BARNABY, CORNELIUS, IRENE, & MINNIE]
We'll carry it off!
