A voice said
Dragged up in back streets
this working class kid made good
in learning and position
I had the job, the money, the status, more money
I was ready
But then a voice said
YOU are not dinner party material!
I cried
then whined:
The further education?
The aspirations?
The witty repartee?
The middle class accent?
The money?
A voice said you are NOT dinner party material!
