Brutality Lyrics - Singles - Black Box Recorder

Whatever happened to the fear of God? 

Whatever happened to church on Sunday? 

Whatever happened to the velvet glove and the iron fist? 

Whatever happened to the social season? 

Whatever happened to the debutants? 

Whatever happened to the South of France? 

Good old fashioned brutality 

Everything in it's place 

Good old fashioned barbarity 

Leave the room in disgrace 

Whatever happened to drinking and driving 

And doing the decent thing? 

Hiding out on the continent 

Getting over a nervous breakdown 

Close the ranks and remove all traces 

Say anything to stay out of jail 

What it really boils down to 

It always wins, it never fails 

Good old fashioned brutality 

Everything in it's place 

Good old fashioned barbarity 

Leave the room in disgrace 

Ah ah ah, ah ah 

Driving back from a late night party 

Took a corner much too fast 

Head-on collision with the 21st century 

Whatever happened to brutality?
