A Well Respected Man |
Cause he gets up in the morning |
And he goes to work at nine |
And he comes back home at five-thirty |
Gets the same train every time |
Cause his world is built round punctuality |
It never fails |
And he’s oh, so good |
And he’s oh, so fine |
And he’s oh, so healthy |
In his body and his mind |
He’s a well respected man about town |
Doing the best things so conservatively |
And his mother goes to meetings |
While his father pulls the maid |
And she stirs the tea with councilors |
While discussing foreign trade |
And she passes looks, as well as bills |
At every suave young man |
Cause he’s oh, so good |
And he’s oh, so fine |
And he’s oh, so healthy |
In his body and his mind |
He’s a well respected man about town |
Doing the best things so conservatively |
And he likes his own backyard |
And he likes his fags the best |
Cause he’s better than the rest |
And his own sweat smells the best |
And he hopes to grab his fathers loot |
When pater passes on |
Cause he’s oh, so good |
And he’s oh, so fine |
And he’s oh, so healthy |
In his body and his mind |
He’s a well respected man about town |
Doing the best things so conservatively |
And he plays at stocks and shares |
And he goes to the regatta |
And he adores the girl next door |
Cause he’s dying to get at her |
But his mother knows the best about |
The matrimonial stakes |
Cause he’s oh, so good |
And he’s oh, so fine |
And he’s oh, so healthy |
In his body and his mind |
He’s a well respected man about town |
Doing the best things so conservatively |
