The Vice and Virtue Ministry Lyrics

At the Vice & Virtue Ministry

You'll earn your etiquette degree
Climb the ranks and join us here

Amongst the bourgeoisie

We all laugh endlessly

Extend our pinkies when we drink

And thumb our noses at the lower classes in the penny seats

You'll move up socially

Fall in love with aristocracy

Wear the right clothes

Say the right things

Then you just might meet the Queen

We'll have our guests to tea

Play croquet on the greens

Wear out monocles
Quote articles

From Tennyson and Keats

Spend our days at

Gay soirees

And wave from royal parades

Spend our evenings

Counting earnings

Yachting down the Thames

At the Vice and Virtue Ministry
You'll earn your etiquette degree

Climb the ranks and join us here

Amongst the bourgeoisie

We all laugh endlessly

Extend our pinkies when we drink

And thumb our noses at the lower classes in the penny seats

Spend our days at

Gay soirees

And wave from royal parades

Spend our evenings

Counting earnings

Yachting down the Thames
