Lyrics A Well Respected Man

'Cos 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
'Cos 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
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 while discussin' foreign trade
And she passes looks as well as bills at every suave young man
'Cos 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
'Cos 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
'Cos 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 at stocks and shares
And he goes to the Regatta
And he adores the girl next door 'cos he's dyin' to get at her
But his mother knows the best about the matrimonial stakes
'Cos 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
