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 |
