|Punctured bicycle on a hillside desolate
Will Nature make a man of me yet?
When in this charming car
This charming man
 
Why pamper life's complexity
When the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat?
 
I would go out tonight
But I haven't got a stitch to wear
This man said:
"It's gruesome that someone so handsome should care"
 
A jumped-up pantry boy
Who never knew his place
He said - "Return the ring"
He knows so much about these things
He knows so much about these things

This charming man


A jumped-up pantry boy
Who never knew his place
He said - "Return the ring"
He knows so much about these things
He knows so much about these things
He knows so much about these things
