Are you wearing old dreams, breaking out at the seams, these should be new.

And have I got a bargain, you lucky people you.

Here's the hollyhock scent makes the lady you send feel well-to-do

And the price fits your pocket, you lucky people you.

Then here the green velvet landscape and to prove I'm no rogue,

I'll add a smart looking rainbow like you see pictured in Vogue.

I've a wonderful buy in a wrap-around sky of moonlight blue,

And it's yours for a love song, you lucky people you.
