Elegance

Yes, New York

It's really us, Barnaby and

Cornelius

All the guests of Mr. Hackl are

Feeling great and look spectacular

What a knack

There is to that

Acting like a born aristocrat

We've got elegance

If you ain't got elegance

You can never ever carry it off

All who are

Well-bred agree

Minnie Fay

Has pedigree

Exercise your wildest whims tonight

We are out with diamond Jims tonight

Could they be

Misleading us?

Silver spoons were used for feeding us

We've got elegance

If you ain't got elegance

You can never, ever carry it off

Middle class

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

Vanderbilt

Kowtows to us

J.P Morgan scrapes and bows to us

We've got elegance

We were born with elegance

Have you noticed

When I hold my cup

The saucer never moves?

And the way I keep my pinky up

Indubitably proves

That we've got elegance

We've got built-in elegance

And with elegance (elegance, elegance, elegance, elegance)

We'll carry it off
