1
I used my silver spoon at birth
2
For throwing meatballs at my nurse
3
And much to my regret
4
I can't mingle with the social set.
5
I used the wrong fork at the Stork in New York.
6
My manners ain't fit for a goop.
7
I'm just a square in the social circle.
8
Who put that fly in my soup?
9
I'd rather go out with a lout to about
10
Than sleep in a symphony hall.
11
I'm just a square in the social circle.
12
Who knocked my gum off that wall?
13
When the utterly utter flows like butter
14
I want to start pitching a curve.
15
With a silly old blighter on a first nighter
16
I feel like a pickled hors d'oeuvres,
17
No verve.
18
I never felt gay in a fancy beret
19
Or wear a babushka or bursk.
20
I'm just a square in the social circle.
21
Finger bowls hurt me the worst.
22
They just don't quench my thirst!
23
Mrs. Vanderpuss with greet me with a fourteen karat shout,
24
"My dear you simply must come to my daughter's coming out!"
25
Her daughter is a Frankenstein, a Dracula in mink.
26
When she comes out each stag will shout,
27
"Gadzooks, I need a drink!"
28
I'd dined and clubbed,
29
I've elbow rubbed from Yonkers to Cheyenne!
30
Boo to you bud;
31
Take your blue blood
32
And stuck it in your fountain pen!
33
I wanna brush all the flush in the gush.
34
I'd rather get left than be right.
35
I'm just a square in the social circle.
36
Anyone here wanna fight?
37
And none of me fits with the wits at the Ritz.
38
I'd rather relax on a stool.
39
I'm just a square in the social circle.
40
Anyone wanna shoot pool?
41
When a cookie with cabbage gets too savage
42
I'll wrestle him three out of four.
43
I would rather a sailor hop in my trailer
44
And show me his nautical lore.
45
Why sure!
46
The ladies will frills only fill me with chills.
47
They're soft as a ball of chenile.
48
I'm just a square in the social circle.
49
I've got a muscle of steel.
50
Anyone here want to feel?
51
I'm as square as a pear in a boutonniere.
52
Fancy silks won't stay on.
53
I'm designed for rayon.
54
But I just don't seem to care.
55
I'm a square!
