Você me pediu cem mil-réis
Pra comprar um soirée
E um tamborim
O organdi anda barato pra cachorro
E um gato lá no morro
Não é tão caro assim
Não custa nada
Preencher formalidade
Tamborim pra batucada
Soirée pra sociedade
Sou bem sensato
Seu pedido atendi
Já tenho a pele do gato
Falta o metro de organdi
Sei que você
Num dia faz um tamborim
Mas ninguém faz um soirée
Com meio metro de cetim
De soirée você num baile se destaca
Mas não quero mais você
Porque não sei vestir casaca
