[Verse 1]
I'm puttin' on my top hat
Tyin' up my white tie
Brushin' off my tails

[Verse 2]
I'm dudein' up my shirt front
Puttin' in the shirt studs
Polishin' my nails

[Bridge]
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

[Verse 3]
For i'll be there
Puttin' down my top hat
Mussin' up my white tie
Dancin' in my tails

[Preamble]
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
[Verse 1]
I'm puttin' on my top hat
Tyin' up my white tie
Brushin' off my tails

[Verse 2]
I'm dudein' up my shirt front
Puttin' in the shirt studs
Polishin' my nails

[Bridge]
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

[Verse 3]
For i'll be there
Puttin' down my top hat
Mussin' up my white tie
Dancin' in my tails
