There Are Those

Lyrics

(Mrs. Duke) There are those whose social standing
 Is constantly demanding
 Every single thing we do
 The public knows
 Then there is a social strata
 Where propriety doesn't matter
 I suppose
 There are those
 There are those
 (Aunt Mary) There are those to whom position
 Is a natural born condition
 To be worn with ease
 Like comfortable old clothes
 Though the nouveau riche deny it
 All their money cannot buy it
 Class will out
 Goodness knows
 But there are those
 (John) Watercress on toast
 (Mrs. Duke) There are those who grace the pages of the blue book
 (Aunt Mary) Never heard of it
 Is it a new book
 (Mrs. Duke) Simply anyone who is anyone is listed
 (Aunt Mary) Oh, you mean the New York Telephone Directory
 (Mrs. Duke) Hardly
 (Aunt Mary) There are those whose names predate the Constitution
 (Mrs. Duke) Yes, and some of them opposed the Revolution
 (Aunt Mary) Conservative
 (Mrs. Duke) Reactionary
 (John) Cream cheese and cucumber
 (Aunt Mary) Philadelphia is the cradle of liberty
 (Mrs. Duke) Smoldering like an aging page of history
 (John) Chopped liver
 (Aunt Mary) There are those who flaunt prosperity
 (Mrs. Duke) There are those who flout austerity
 Posing cozy on their rosy status quos
 (John) Poison dart
 I-I mean raisin tart
 (Mrs. Duke) There are those quite influential
 (Aunt Mary) There are those inconsequential
 (Mrs. Duke) There are those
 (Aunt Mary) There are those
 (Mrs. Duke) There are those
 (Aunt Mary) There are those
 (Mrs. Duke) There are those
 (Both) I suppose
 There are those
