little blue number
My oh my, but you do look the killer Never mind the duds just look at that hat All that green chartreuse on the waistcoat How do you come by something like that?  Where did you get that little blue number? How do you make those rhinestones shine? Do you go on the prowl while other folks slumber? Did you steal those things right off of the line? Hold your horses, that's something of mine That little blue number, little blue number Little blue number, little blue number  Ice blue jacket, vent down the middle Shark-skin trimmings and all that jazz Real rabbit's foot on a two-tone tie pin Lots of good luck and razzamatazz  Where did you get that little blue number? How do you squeeze into something like that? Is that the same one I was wearing last summer? I wish I was glad for you, but I'm sorry Did the whole thing fall off the back of a lorry? That little blue number, little blue number Little blue number, little blue number  Tartan shirt with the button-down collar Velvet hat-band, crocodile shoes Diamond bracelets, houndstooth pockets Everybody saying "Here comes good news"  Where did you get that little blue number? Rings a bell in the back of my mind You better come clean if you don't want to lumber I told you three times, you don't seem to get it That's my idea, you're taking the credit That little blue number, little blue number Little blue number, little blue number
