Song language: English
Slumming on Park Avenue |
Put on your slumming clothes and get your car |
Let’s go sightseeing where the high-toned people are |
Come on, there’s lots of fun in store for you |
See how the other half lives on Park Avenue |
Let’s go slumming, take me slumming |
Let’s go slumming on Park Avenue |
Let us hide behind a pair of fancy glasses |
And make faces when a member of the classes passes |
Let’s go smelling where they’re dwelling |
Sniffing everything the way they do |
Let us go to it, they do it |
Why can’t we do it too? |
Let’s go slumming, nose thumbing, on Park Avenue |
Let’s go slumming, take me slumming |
Let’s go slumming on Park Avenue |
Where the social hearts |
For Broadway lights are throbbing |
And they spend their nights |
In smart cafes hobknobbing, snobbing |
Come let’s eye them, pass right by them |
Looking down our noses as they do |
Let us go to it, they do it |
Why can’t we do it too? |
Let’s go slumming, crumb bumming, on Park Avenue |
