My oh my, but you do look the killer

Never mind the duds just look at that hat

All that green chartreuse on the waistcoat

How do you come by something like that?

Where did you get that little blue number?

How do you make those rhinestones shine?

Do you go on the prowl while other folks slumber?

Did you steal those things right off of the line?

Hold your horses, that's something of mine

That little blue number, little blue number

Little blue number, little blue number

Ice blue jacket, vent down the middle

Shark-skin trimmings and all that jazz

Real rabbit's foot on a two-tone tie pin

Lots of good luck and razzamatazz

Where did you get that little blue number?

How do you squeeze into something like that?

Is that the same one I was wearing last summer?

I wish I was glad for you, but I'm sorry

Did the whole thing fall off the back of a lorry?

That little blue number, little blue number

Little blue number, little blue number

Tartan shirt with the button-down collar

Velvet hat-band, crocodile shoes

Diamond bracelets, houndstooth pockets

Everybody saying "Here comes good news"

Where did you get that little blue number?

Rings a bell in the back of my mind

You better come clean if you don't want to lumber

I told you three times, you don't seem to get it

That's my idea, you're taking the credit

That little blue number, little blue number

Little blue number, little blue number
