A Couple Of Swells (from "Easter Parade")

A Couple Of Swells - Judy Garland

We're a couple of swells

We stop at the best hotels

But we prefer the country far away

From the city smells

We're a couple of sports

The pride of the tennis courts

In June July and August we look cute

When we're dressed in shorts

The vanderbilts have asked us up for tea

We don't know how to get there no siree

No siree

We would drive up the avenue but

We haven't got the price

We would skate up the avenue but there isn't any ice

We would ride on a bicycle but we haven't got a bike

So we'll walk up the avenue

Yes we'll walk up the avenue

And to walk up the avenue's what we like

Wall street bankers are we

With plenty of currency

We'd open up the safe but we forgot

Where we put the key

We're the favorite lads

Of girls in the picture ads

We'd like to tell you who we kissed last

Night but we can't be cads

The vanderbilts are waiting at the club

But how are we to get there that's the rub

That's the rub

We would sail up the avenue but

We haven't got a yacht

We would drive up the avenue but

The horse we had was shot

We would ride on a trolley car but

We haven't got the fare

So we'll walk up the avenue

Yes we'll walk up the avenue

Yes we'll walk up the avenue till we're there
