There was a time, my friend
When the stars were stars
And lived by the name, in that regard
For the very meaning of the word
When the sixties swing, glit
A' words like stylish a' chic had meaning,
In that regard
Betty Boo and Marilyn Monroe had class
Enough to blush the priest not blind his holiness
With antics, and dress codes worn to reveal
In that regard
Alluring seduction, when imagination had a place
There was a time when class had meaning
We were graced with elegance, finesse
In that regard
I curse the paparazzi
And the it girls "Paris Hilton"
The Essex girls "Jordan"
In that regard
In that regard
And the mockery of supposed socialite
Like "Kim Kardashian" to have turned the dream
In to a pantomime of cheap porn
There was a time when
The stars were stars, groomed
With etiquette of finishing schools,
In that regard
They was a time
They was a time
When the stars were stars with shine
In that regard, in that regard
