(Velma)
Whatever happened to fair dealing
And pure ethics
And nice manners?
Why is it everyone now is a pain in the Ass?
Whatever happened to class?
(Mama)
Class.
Whatever happened to Please may I
And Yes thank you
And How charming?
Now every son of a bitch
Is a snake in the grass
Whatever happened to class?
(Velma)
Class.
(Both)
Oh, there ain't no gentelmen to open up the doors,
There ain't no ladies now there's only pigs and whores
And even kids'll knock you down so's they can pass
Nobody's got no class!!!
(Velma)
Whatever happened to old values
(Mama)
And fine morals
(Velma)
And good breeding?
(Mama)
Now no-one even says oops
When they're passing their gas
(Both)
Whatever happened to class?
Class.
Oh, There ain't no gentelmen that's fit for any use,
And any girl will touch your privates for a deuce
And even kids'll kick your shins and give ya sass
Nobody's got no class!
(Velma)
All you read about today is rape and theft
(Mama)
Jesus Christ, ain't there no decency left?
(Both)
Nobody's got no class!
(Mama)
Every guy is a snot
(Velma)
Every girl is a twat
(Mama)
Holy ****
(Velma)
Holy ****
(Mama)
What a shame
(Velma)
What a shame
(Both)
What became of class?

"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)
