C majorC  E minorEm    A minorAm
cause he gets up in the morning,
    C majorC   E minorEm    A minorAm
And he goes to work at nine,
     C majorC   E minorEm   A minorAm
And he comes back home at five-thirty,
     C majorC    E minorEm   A minorAm
Gets the same train every time.
     C majorC   E minorEm      A minorAm   C majorC
cause his world is built round punctuality,
  E minorEm   A minorAm
It never fails.
    C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
And hes oh, so good,
    C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
And hes oh, so fine,
    C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
And hes oh, so healthy,
    C majorC E minorEm    A minorAm
In his body and his mind.
   FF      E minorEm
Hes a well respected man about town,
 FF        D MajorD     G+G C majorC G+G
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..... Chorus


And he likes his own backyard,
And he likes his fags the best,
cause hes better than the rest,
And his own sweat smells the best,
And he hopes to grab his fathers loot,
When pater passes on..... Chorus


And he plays at stocks and shares,
And he goes to the regatta,
And he adores the girl next door,
cause hes dying to get at her,
But his mother knows the best about
The matrimonial stakes..... Chorus


End on Gmaj
