A Well Respected Man sung by the Kinks:
1.'Cause he gets up in the morning, and he goes to work at
nine,
and he comes home at five-thirty, gets the same train every
time.
'cause his world is built on punctuality, to him it never
fails.
Chorus: 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.
2.And his mother goes to meetings, while his father paws the
maid,
And she stirs her tea with countenance, while discussing
foreign trade,
And she passes looks as well as bills at every sauve young
man.
Chorus:
3.And he likes his own back yard, 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.
Chorus:
4. And he plays the stocks and shares, and he goes to the
regatta.
He adores the girl next door, and he's dying to get at her,
But his mother knows the best about the matrimonial state.
Chorus:
A 60's blast from the past from Kraziekhat.
