LyricsA 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 a maid

And she stirs her tea

with councillors

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 father's 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 the

stocks and shares

and he goes

to the Regatta

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
