Based on United Kingdom 1985
Vikki — Love Is
I left today the castle
That I own in Basel
It's falling down, a wreck in town
But a sign of prestige
I put my new blue dress on
And I attach a ribbon
Looks like Gaultier but I sewed it myself
Can’t wear clothes off-the-shelf
Because others' perception
Of my perfection, is my yearn to go on
Posh entails having, on the beach, a cabin
While struggling to pay, for your small flat, the rent
Posh means spending, in Rome, every weekend
Money I can’t dispend
Posh involves driving a new Aston Martin
Bought it ninth-hand, can't even fill the fuel tank
That’s what posh means
See this chair I brought here
I bought it cheap last year
Told it's antique, that sounds so chic
Producers bit the bait
Cause it's the way that you sell
Yourself as well as the narrative you tell
Posh entails dancing as if you were fencing
Left hand on the dress, I just can't make a mess
Posh’s wearing jewels, so massive and flashy
That are cheap and trashy
Posh is the make-up that makes you a pin-up
And enough hairspray to pollute the whole Poole Bay
That’s what posh is
Posh is the feeling that you're a top being
Don't care for the rest, can treat them like a pest
Posh's ostentation, buy people's affection
To feel complete and whole
Posh is pretending, it’s bluffing and feigning
A strategy to mask one's insecurities
That’s what (that’s what) that’s what posh is
