A brand-new suit as well;
A new silk hat is on his head,

He has brand-new smile
He's new all over. in and out,
Excepting at courtship:
You know him now, for he's the man
Who's on his wedding trip.

when you meet q politician
OF . strictly business kind,
Who at last has climbed the ladder
And left all his past behind,
You must compliment him shrewdIy
If you dent want any row.
You can say you're glad he got there.
But you needn't mention how.
You can speak your admiration
OF the place he's risen to
And talk about the future
And the things that he wiIrdo.
But hr5yity is safer.
Simply make your little bow
And say you're glad he got there:
And You needn't mention how.
