See my vest. See my vest.  
Made from real gorilla chest.  
See this sweater, there’s no better, than authentic Irish Setter.  
See this hat? 'Twas my cat,  
My evening wear, vampire bat.  
These white slippers are albino African endangered rhino.  
Grizzly bear underwear,  
Turtle’s necks I’ve got my share.  
Beret of Poodle on my noodle I shall rest.  
Try my red robin suit, it comes one breast or two.  
See my vest! See my vest! See my vest!

I just got an invitation through the mails:  
“Your presence requested this evening,  
It’s formal, a top hat, a white tie and tails.”  
Nothing now could take the wind out of my sails.  
Because I’m invited to step out this evening  
With top hat and white tie and tails.
