Have you seen the well-to-do
Up and down Park Avenue
On that famous thoroughfare
With their noses in the air

High hats and narrow collars
White spats and lots of dollars
Spending every dime
For a wonderful time

Now, if you're blue
And you don't know where to go to
Why don't you go where fashion sits
Puttin' on the Ritz
Different types who wear a daycoat
Pants with stripes and cutaway coat
Perfect fits
Puttin' on the Ritz

Dressed up like a million dollar trooper
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper
Super-duper

Come, let's mix where Rockefellers
Walk with sticks or "umberellas"
In their mitts
Puttin' on the Ritz

------ short instrumental break ------

Tips his hat just like an English chappie
To a lady with a wealthy pappy
Very snappy

You'll declare it's simply topping
To be there and hear them swapping
Smart tidbits
Puttin' on the Ritz

Get it, good sillly and chill song. Very neutral
 
i'm sorry, but i think you'll find that the original song's by a band called ''they might be giants''

p.s. i hope cybersh33p doesnt see this ;))

actually Putting On the Ritz was written by Irving Berlin in the 1930's

That was the first thing I thought of when I read this thread (and that it was an old song as Cptstern pointed out).

In best monster voice: "Poot-in on ehhh riiiiz! "
