Their only child a girl is at university And studying for her architectural degree And the middle class snob feels quite pleased to say My daughter will be very wealthy one day. But of Nature and it's workings so little she know She thinks that the currawong some sort of crow And she thinks that the wood louse is a breed of ant One might say her knowledge in Nature is scant. The middle class snob use her words with such care And she seems quite shocked if she hear some one swear And with other social climbers she socialize And down to earth people are rough in her eyes. The middle class snob is a middle class wife And to her wealth and social status are the best things in life And all of her friends are as snobby as she As they climb towards the top of the high social tree.
