Slumming On Park Avenue Lyrics
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 avenueLet's go slumming, take me slumming
Let's go slumming on park avenueLet us hide behind a pair of fancy glasses
And make faces when a member of the classes passesLet's go smelling where they're dwelling
Sniffing everything the way they doLet us go to it, they do it
Why can't we do it too?
Let's go slumming, nose thumbing, on park avenueLet's go slumming, take me slumming
Let's go slumming on park avenueWhere the social hearts for Broadway lights are throbbing
And they spend their nights in smart cafes hobnobbing, snobbingCome let's eye them, pass right by them
Looking down our noses as they doLet us go to it, they do it
Why can't we do it too?
Let's go slumming, crumb bumming, on park avenue
