[00:00:00] When The Idle Rich Become The Idle Poor - Ella Logan/Donald Richards

[00:00:01] Composed by：Harburg/Lane

[00:00:04] When de idle poor

[00:00:06] Become the idle rich

[00:00:08] You'll never know

[00:00:09] Just who is who

[00:00:10] Or who is which

[00:00:12] Won't it be rich

[00:00:14] When everyone's poor relative

[00:00:16] Becomes a Rockefellative

[00:00:18] And pans no longer itch

[00:00:21] What a switch

[00:00:23] When we all have Ermine

[00:00:25] And have plastic teeth

[00:00:27] How will we determine

[00:00:29] Who's who underneath

[00:00:31] And when all your neighbours

[00:00:33] Are upper class

[00:00:35] You won't know your georges

[00:00:37] From your astors

[00:00:39] Let's toast the day

[00:00:41] The day we drink that drinkie up

[00:00:43] But with a little pinkie up

[00:00:45] The day on which

[00:00:47] The idle poor

[00:00:51] Become the idle rich

[00:00:59] When a rich man doesn't want to work

[00:01:03] He's a bon vivant

[00:01:04] Yes he's a bom vivant

[00:01:07] But when a poor man doesn't want to work

[00:01:11] He's a laughter he's a lounger

[00:01:13] He's a lazier good for nothing

[00:01:14] He's a jerk

[00:01:18] When a rich man looses on a horse

[00:01:22] Isn't he the sport

[00:01:23] Oh isn't he the sport

[00:01:26] But when a poor man looses on a horse

[00:01:30] He's a gambler he's a spender

[00:01:32] He's a low life he's a reason for divorce

[00:01:38] When a rich man chases after dames

[00:01:41] He's a man about town

[00:01:43] A man about town

[00:01:45] But when a poor man chases after dames

[00:01:49] He's a bounder he's a rounder

[00:01:51] He's a rotter and a lot of dirty names

[00:02:02] You'll never know

[00:02:02] Just who is which

[00:02:05] When de idle poor

[00:02:06] Become the idle rich

[00:02:09] When de idle poor

[00:02:10] Become the idle rich

[00:02:13] When de idle poor

[00:02:15] Become the idle rich

[00:02:17] You'll never know

[00:02:18] Just who is who

[00:02:19] Or who is which

[00:02:21] No one will see

[00:02:23] The Irish or the Slav in you

[00:02:25] 'Cause when you're on Park Avenue

[00:02:27] Cornelius and Mike

[00:02:30] Look alike

[00:02:31] When poor tweedle Doe

[00:02:33] This rich tweedle Dee

[00:02:36] This discrimination will no longer be

[00:02:40] When we leave undone

[00:02:41] And out of the nuts

[00:02:43] You won't know your banker

[00:02:45] From your butler

[00:02:48] Let's make the switch

[00:02:49] With just a few annuities

[00:02:51] We'll hide those incongruities

[00:02:53] With clothes from Abercrombie Fitch

[00:02:58] Wheeeeeeeeeen de idle poor

[00:03:02] Wheeeeeeen become the

[00:03:03] Idle rich

[00:03:04] Idle rich

[00:03:06] When de idle poor

[00:03:10] Become the idle rich
