Oh darling could you pass the buttered beans?
And where did you get these exquisite silver tureens?
I hope she won't cause one of her embarrassing scenes,
Did you know she's some distant cousin of the Queen's?

Oh please be a dear and pour me another up to the brim,
Yes I do recall who he was caught with we all remember him,
Cut another slice of the best side of the beef but not too thin,
That quartet they use can hardly play in tune it's such a din.

Oh you lamb I wish you weren't such a martyr to social climbing,
That's yet another begging endorsement you're signing
And these people are such dullards always pining
For money and refinement, the only thing they do right is fine dining.
