ACT I - The Earl of Beverley's House in Regent's Park.
No. 1 - Opening Chorus
| Chorus: | Oh, his Lordship rather keeps things up, |
| Men: | He keeps things up, |
| Girls: | They come to sup — |
| All: | Lots of ladies and of noblemen, That's life in the Upper Ten! |
| Girls: | Veuve Clicquot on the go, Until three A. M. All on ice, and the price Doesn't bother them! |
| Men: | If my Lord can't afford it some day |
| Girls: | As people say, |
| All: | Then the Duke will have to pay! Oh! and after they have done, you know, |
| Men: | There'll be some scraps |
| Girls: | For us perhaps! |
| All: | When we clear away the plates and chairs, You'll see high life down stairs! |
| Men: | For no one cares — |
| Girls: | What goes down stairs. |
