Aristocrat lyrics
Aristocrat lyrics
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 said “let’s throw a ball”
And you’d chase me naked through the palace gardens
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
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
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
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
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
Out of the fire
Out of the fire
Courante, Bourrée, Allemande if you want
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
