I met him in a crowded room
Where people go
to drink away their gloom
He sat me down and so began
The story of a charmless man
Educated the expensive way
He knows his claret
from his beaujolais
I think he'd liked to
of been Ronnie Kray
But then nature didn't
make him that way
He went, na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
He thinks he's educated airs
those family shares
Will protect him
that we will respect him
He moves in circles of friends
Who just pretend
that they like him
He does the same to them
And when you
put it all together
There's the model
of a charmless man
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
He knows the swingers
and their cavalry
Says he can get
in anywhere for free
I began to go a
little cross eyed
And from this charmless man
I just had to hide
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
He talks at speed
he gets nose bleeds
He doesn't see his days
are tumbling down upon him
And yet he tries
so hard to please
He's just so keen
for you to listen
But no-one's listening
And when you put it all together
there's the model
of a charmless man...
He thinks he's educated airs
those family shares
Will protect him
that you will respect him
And yet he tries
so hard to please
He's just so keen
for you to listen
But no-one's listening
And when you
put it all together
there's the model
of a charmless man.....
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na.....
