Correction Lyrics A Well Respected Man by Ray Davies

Back

Lyrics

'Cause he gets up in the mornin'
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 on 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
Doin' the best things so conservatively

And his mother goes to meetings
While his father pulls the maid
And she stirs the tea with councilors
Whilе discussin' foreign trade
And she pa**еs looks as well as bills
At every suave young man

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
Doin' 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 have his father's loot
When pater pa**es 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
Doin' the best things so conservatively

And he plays the barhop
And he goes to a regatta
He adores the girl next door
'Cause he's dyin' 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
Doin' the best things so conservatively
