"Sunday church and they look fetching Saturday night saw him retching over our fence Bang the wall for me to turn down I can see them with their stern frown as they dispense The kind of look that says they’re perfect Heard the neighbor slam his car door Don’t he realize this is respectable street What d’you think he bought that car for ‘Cos he realize this is respectable street "
- XTC (Respectable Street Lyrics)
