Matron:
The whole world’s gone low-brow. Things ain’t what they used to be.
Velma:
They sure ain’t, Mama. They sure ain’t. It’s all gone.
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?
Matron:
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 and Matron:
Class!
Ah, there ain’t no gentlemen
To open up the doors
There ain’t no ladies now,
There’s only pigs and whores
And even kids’ll knock ya down
So’s they can pass
Nobody’s got no class!
Velma:
Whatever happened to old values?
Matron:
And fine morals?
Velma:
And good breeding?
Matron
Now, no one even says “oops” when they’re
Passing their gas
Whatever happened to class?
Velma:
Class
Velma and Matron:
Ah, there ain’t no gentlemen
That’s fit for any use
And any girl’d touch your privates
For a deuce
Matron:
And even kids’ll kick your shins and give you sass
Velma:
And even kids’ll kick your shins and give you sass
Velma and Matron:
Nobody’s got no class!
Velma:
All you read about today is rape and theft
Matron:
Jesus Christ, ain’t there no decency left?
Velma and Matron:
Nobody’s got no class
Matron:
Everybody you watch
Velma:
‘S got his brains in his crotch
Matron:
Holy crap
Velma:
Holy crap
Matron:
What a shame
Velma:
What a shame
Velma and Matron:
What became of class?
