  • She passed, she's class
    Candy for the eye and a twinkle in her smile
    And she looks like butter wouldn't melt

    He's bewitched, her daddy's rich
    You can see she comes from money, but she's still a little honey
    And it looks like butter wouldn't melt, oh no

    He stuttered
    "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
    I never thought I'd say this, but I think you're so
    Aw-aw-aw-aw-awfully nice
    Is that alright?" She said "fine"

    He was a little bit scared, a little apprehensive
    He was just a boy from a local comprehensive

    But he'd heard that
    Posh girls have good manners, but they go like the clappers
    'Cause they never got to hang around with boys at school
    Posh girls have good manners, but they go like the clappers
    'Cause they never got to hang around with boys at school

    She seems, pristine, but don't be deceived, 'cause she's not that naive
    Although it looks like butter wouldn't melt

    He had a fright, that night
    She'd opened his eyes to a world of surprise
    And the butter, oh the butter it had gone, it had gone

    She goes "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh"
    With a twinkle in her eye, she said
    "Oh my, take me ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-home tonight, tonight"

    He was a little bit scared, a little apprehensive
    He was just a boy from a local comprehensive

    But he'd heard that
    Posh girls have good manners, but they go like the clappers
    'Cause they never got to hang around with boys at school
    Posh girls have good manners, but they go like the clappers
    'Cause they never got to hang around with boys at school

    There's nothing like a little bit of class
    Wrapped up in a perfect arse
    There's nothing like a little bit of class
    The poor boy never stood a chance

    Is it true what they say about posh girls?
    (Is it true, is it true what they say?)
    Is it true what they say about posh girls?
    (Is it true, is it true what they say?)
    Is it true what they say?
    (Is it true, is it true what they say?)
    Is it true what they say about posh girls?

    Posh girls have good manners, but they go like the clappers
    'Cause they never got to hang around with boys at school
    Posh girls have good manners, but they go like the clappers
    'Cause they never got to hang around with boys at school

    There's nothing like a little bit of class
    Wrapped up in a perfect arse
    There's nothing like a little bit of class
    The poor boy never stood a chance
    There's nothing like a little bit of class
    They'll all said it's never gonna last
    There's nothing like a little bit of class
