(Kermit, with his two best friends, gets ready for his date with who he thinks is Lady Holiday...actually, a lofty secretary, Miss Piggy)
Kermit:
So hand me my cuff links
Fozzie: Yes, sir!
Kermit:
And straighten my tie
Just drench me in rich cologne
And don't ask me why
Go on and pluck me a boutonniere
Fozzie: You're movin' up and walkin' on air
Kermit:
Steppin' out with a star
And feelin' high
Come polish my wing tips
And call for the car (Gonzo whistles)
I'll sweep her right off her feet
Wherever we are
Gonzo: A satin collar and velvet vest!
Kermit:
I never settle for second best
Steppin' out with star
Sad times: bye-bye!
Have I got style (Hmmmmmm)
Have I got taste (Hmmmmmm)
On someone else I swear
This savoir faire
Would be such a waste.
Come toss me my top hat
I'm ready to fly
Bustin' into the upper crust
As easy as pie!
Just watch my dreams come true
This was somethin' I was born to do
Steppin' out with a star
That star is you!
Fozzie: Have you got class?
Kermit: Have I got class!
Fozzie: Have you got chic
Kermit: Have I got chic!
Fozzie: To think that you and me were nobody
Why only last week!
Kermit:
I'm ready to fly [falls]
At least I can try
Just watch my dreams come true
This is somethin' I was born to do
Kermit, Fozzie, & Gonzo:
Steppin' out with a star
Bye bad times
Steppin' out with a star
Hey good times
Steppin' out with a star
And feelin' high
Yeah!
