歌曲名 A Well Respected Man

歌手名 The Kinks

'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 the maid

And she stirs the tea with councilors

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 fathers 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 at stocks and shares

And he goes to the regatta

And 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
