Aristocracy |
You talk of all the many things that you have |
And you smile from day to day |
But no one has ever seen any of these |
And those smiles just fade away |
Someone keeps shouting out 'I want to know' |
Well I can’t help singing this song |
When they tell me that the devil is a gentleman too |
I know I can’t go wrong |
I have to slip away today |
I’ve been invited down to stay |
Yes I feel my going down |
They say that eight fishes call men in the sea |
And use man-made for the bait |
And shoots all the people that fly in the sky |
That chance on his estate |
That feeds on salmon, that just has to be seen |
And none but he can do |
They tell me this and they tell me that |
And tell me this is always, always something new |
You’d better believe it’s so |
I made up my mind to go |
A whole world waits for you |
I’ll sit with my head thrust down on your knees |
And smile for you again |
And you won’t have to worry about anything now |
I’ll be halfway there by ten |
It only takes a moment to decide on the move |
It all seems so absurd |
Still I know that the devil is a gentleman too |
Who never keeps his word |
I made up my mind to go |
You’d better believe it’s so |
A whole world waits for me |
