#2 The Chattering Classes

#2 The Chattering Classes

Collecting phrases is a habit of mine, it's just something to do as time passes.

And I have to say I struggle to think of a phrase I find more fine than 'the chattering classes'

(Thats a great rhyme by the way, it works no matter how you'd pronounce it

But this here couplets a little pretentious, so I'm going to go ahead and renounce it).

Anyway,

I pledge today

To become a member of the chattering elite

Those who know me know my chatter is hard to beat

But I have a feeling, if I were to bite the bullet and put myself to the test

I would find it difficult to chatter with the best

My words are weak, my lexicon is lax - at its worst its banter

I can talk you into a trance but I know I'm not an enchanter

If I really want to join this most distinguished of professions

To get into these chattering classes, I'm gonna need some lessons.
