Текст песни A Well Respected Man (From "Live At Kelvin Hall" Album) - The Kinks

A WELL-RESPECTED MAN The Kinks '
Cause he gets up in the morning, And he goes to work at nine, Gets the same train every time.
And he comes back home at five-thirty, '
Cause his world is built 'round punctuality, It never fails.
And he's oh, so good, And he's oh, so fine, In his body and his mind.
And he's oh, so healthy, 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, '
Cause he's oh, so good, At every suave young man And she passes looks, as well as bills And he's oh, so fine, In his body and his mind.
Doing the best things so conservatively.
And he's oh, so healthy, He's a well respected man about town, And he likes his own backyard, '
Cause he's better than the rest, And he likes his fags the best, And his own sweat smells the best, '
Cause he's oh, so good, And he hopes to grab his father's loot, When Pater passes on.
And he's oh, so healthy, And he's oh, so fine, In his body and his mind.
He's a well respected man about town, Doing the best things so conservatively.
And he adores the girl next door, And he plays at stocks and shares, And he goes to the Regatta, '
Cause he's dying to get at her, But his mother knows the best about '
Cause he's oh, so good, The matrimonial stakes.
And he's oh, so fine, And he's oh, so healthy, He's a well respected man about town, In his body and his mind.
Doing the best things so conservatively.
