Taco Ockerse - Puttin' On The Ritz

Have you seen the well to do?
Up and down Park Avenue?
On that famous thoroughfare
With their noses in the air?

High hats and arrowed collars,
Wide spats and fifteen dollars.
Spending every dime,
For a wonderful time!

If you're blue and you don't know,
Where to go to, why don't you go
Where fashion sits?
Puttin' on the ritz

Different types, who wear a day
Co-pants with stripes, and cut away
Coat, perfect fits?
Puttin' on the ritz

Dressed up like a million dollar trooper
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper
Super-duper! Come, let's mix where Rockerfellas
Walk with sticks, or umbrellas
In their mitts
Puttin' on the ritz

Spangled gowns upon a beauty
Of hand-me-downs, on clown and cutie
All misfits
Puttin' on the ritz

Tips his hat just like an English chappie
To a lady with the wealthy happy
Very snappy!

You'll declare it's simply topping
To be there, and hear them swapping
Smart titbits
Puttin' on the ritz
