This Charming Man

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"





Ah ! 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





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"

La, la-la, la-la, la-la, this charming man ...

Oh, la-la, la-la, la-la, this charming man ...





Ah ! 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





New york version adds :



I would go out tonight

But i haven't got a stitch to wear





I would go out tonight

But i haven't got a stitch to wear

Oh, la-la, la-la, la-la, this charming man ...

Oh, la-la, la-la, la-la, this charming man ...





Ah ! 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
