Class testo

Mama
The whole world’s gone low-brow. Thing’s 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 os 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?

[Together]
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?

Mama
And fine morals?

VELMA
And good breeding?

Mama
Now, no one even says “oops” when they’re
Passing their gas
Whatevcer happened to class?

VELMA
Class

[together}
Ah, there ain’t no gentlemen
That’s fit for any use
And any girl’d touch your privates
For a deuce

Mama
And even kids’ll kick your shins and give you sass

VELMA
And even kids’ll kick your shins and give you sass

[Together]
Nobody’s got no class!

VELMA
All you read about today is rape and theft

Mama
Jesus Christ, ain’t there no decency left?

[Together]
Nobody’s got no class!

Mama
Every guy is a snot!

VELMA
Every girl is a twat!

Mama
Holy shit

VELMA

Mama
What a shame

VELMA
