Aristocrat

[Verse 1] In the Palace of Versailles, before the fall We were wild, we were so debauched Extravagance was practically a law If we ever got bored, we'd say, "Let's throw a ball" [Pre-Chorus] You'd chase me naked through the palace garden Before we dove into a sparkling champagne fountain Eating cake with a little golden butter They never even knew that I got here from the gutter [Chorus] 'Cause I dance like an aristocrat Hold your head up high, yeah, just like that Show me that you understand Come on and do it like only a poor kid can [Post-Chorus] Oh, aristocrat Oh, dance like an aristocrat Oh, aristocrat Oh, dance like an aristocrat [Verse 2] In the middle of the night, the ladies of the court Would catfight tryna be the king's consort I'm sorry, B, he's hot for me La Comtesse du Poverty [Pre-Chorus] Me and Marie dressed head to toe in diamonds With an orchestra to drown out all the violence And the gossip cut like a handcrafted stiletto But they never figured out that I got here from the ghetto [Chorus] 'Cause I dance like an aristocrat Hold your head up high, yeah, just like that Show me that you understand Come on and do it like only a poor kid can [Post-Chorus] Oh, aristocrat Oh, dance like an aristocrat Oh, aristocrat Oh, dance like an aristocrat [Bridge] Out of the fire Out of the fire Courante, bourrée, allemande if you want Courante, bourrée, allemande if you want [Outro] Oh, aristocrat Oh, dance like an aristocrat Oh, aristocrat Oh, dance like an aristocrat
