I just got an invitation through the mails:
|
"Your presence requested this evening, it's formal
|
A top hat, a white tie and tails"
|
Nothing now could take the wind out of my sails
|
Because I'm invited to step out this evening
|
With top hat, white tie and tails
|
|
I'm puttin' on my top hat
|
Tyin' up my white tie
|
Brushin' off my tails
|
|
I'm dudein' up my shirt front
|
Puttin' in the shirt studs
|
Polishin' my nails
|
|
I'm steppin' out, my dear
|
To breathe an atmosphere that simply reeks with class
|
And I trust that you'll excuse my dust when I step on the gas
|
|
For I'll be there
|
Puttin' down my top hat
|
Mussin' up my white tie
|
Dancin' in my tails
|
|
