American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
DARLINGS OF SOCIETY. 
We are darlings of society, We are fin de siecle in our style; We are solemn in our manner, for we follow fashion's banner, And it's very outre form for one to smile. In our dressings we are up to date, Rather English in the way we walk: At the opera we will chatter, for the singing doesn't matter To the swells who go there just to talk. We never toil nor do we spin, for naught but pleasure care a pin. 
Chorus. We are darlings of society, We are fin de siecle in our style; We are solemn in our manner, for we follow fashion's banner, And it's very outre form to smile. -Dance. 
We never had to earn a cent, For our cash papa supplies, you see; So as long as he will give it, why, our lazy lives we'll live it. For it suits us just as nice as nice can be. We are as useful as the butterfly, We flutter with no care or fuss. For we're the glass of fashion and the rage and the sensation; You will seek in vain for flies on us.-Chorus.
