Letra de Hoi Polloi

We've been invited to a cocktail party Over by the palace wall I've not been dressed up since my graduation Haven't been around at all Look what happens when you reach the top The whole world is your oyster You walk 'round like a bleeding fop Meet me outside the curiosity shop No need to bring money Life can be so funny When you're hangin' around with the hoi polloi The countess wipes her nose upon her sleeve Doesn't think that we can see The duke of astinbury has to leave He's afraid to dance with me Look what happens when you've got it made Everyone respects us No more mingling with the local trade As the hostess checks the sky for rain Her fifteen year old daughter Drives the patriarchal letch insane We'll be hangin' around with the hoi polloi
