Hoi Polloi Songtext
von Utopia

We′ve been invited to a cocktail party
Over by the palace wall
I've not been dressed up since my graduation
Haven′t been around at all
Look what happens when you reach the top
The whole world is your usher
You walk 'round like a bleeding bob
Meet me outside the curiosity shop

No need to bring money
Life can be so funny
When you're hanging around with the hoi polloi


The countess wipes the nose upon her sleeve
Doesn′t think that we can see
The Duke of Astonbury 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
Meet me outside the curiosity shop

No need to bring money
Life can be so funny
When you′re hanging around with the

As the hostess checks the sky for rain
Her fifteen-year-old daughter
Drives the patriarchal legend home
Meet me outside the curiosity shop

No need to bring money
Life can be so funny
When you're hanging around with the hoi polloi

We′ll be hanging around with the hoi polloi
We'll be hanging around with the hoi polloi
Hoi polloi
