Hoi Polloi

D MajorD            F#m7F#m7
We've been invited to a cocktail party
A augmentedA         Bb majorBb C majorC
Over by the palace wa-a-ll
D MajorD                 F#m7F#m7
I've not been dressed up since my graduation
A augmentedA           D MajorD C#C#
Haven't been around at all

B minorBm                  G+G
Look what happens when you reach the top
            B minorBm
The whole world is your oyster
            A augmentedA
You walk 'round like a bleeding fop

Chorus:
E MajorE            Amaj7Amaj7
Meet me outside the curiosity shop
E MajorE        G6G6
No need to bring money
A augmentedA       D MajorD
Life can be so funny
      G+G            C majorC   A augmentedA
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

Chorus

As the hostess checks the sky for rain
Her fifteen year old daughter
Drives the patriarchal letch insane

Chorus

FF         C majorC       Bb majorBb    BbmBbm
We'll be hangin' around with the hoi polloi  (repeat)
