LYRICS: I met him in a crowded room Where people go to drink away their gloom He sat me down and so began The story of a charmless man Educated the expensive way He knows his claret from his Beaujolais I think he'd like to have been Ronnie Kray But then nature didn't make him that way He went na-na-na-na-na, na-na Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na-na He thinks his educated airs, those family shares will protect him That we'll respect him He moves in circles of friends who just pretend That they like him, he does the same to them And when you put it all together There's the model of a charmless man Na-na-na-na-na, na-na Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na-na He knows the swingers and their cavalry Says he can get in anywhere for free I began to go a little cross-eyed And from this charmless man I just had to hide He went na-na-na-na-na, na-na Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na-na He talks at speed, he gets nose bleeds He doesn't see his days are tumbling down upon him And yet he tries so hard to please He's just so keen for you to listen, but no one's listening And when you put it all together There's the model of a charmless man He thinks his educated airs, those family shares will protect him That you'll respect him And yet he tries so hard to please He's just so keen for you to listen, but no one's listening And when you put it all together There's the model of a charmless man Na-na-na-na-na, na-na Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na-na Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na-na Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na Na-na-na-na-na, na Na-na-na-na-na, na, na
LYRICS:
I met him in a crowded room
Where people go to drink away their gloom
He sat me down and so began
The story of a charmless man
Educated the expensive way
He knows his claret from his Beaujolais
I think he'd like to have been Ronnie Kray
But then nature didn't make him that way
He went na-na-na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na-na
He thinks his educated airs, those family shares will protect him
That we'll respect him
He moves in circles of friends who just pretend
That they like him, he does the same to them
And when you put it all together
There's the model of a charmless man
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na-na
He knows the swingers and their cavalry
Says he can get in anywhere for free
I began to go a little cross-eyed
And from this charmless man I just had to hide
He went na-na-na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na-na
He talks at speed, he gets nose bleeds
He doesn't see his days are tumbling down upon him
And yet he tries so hard to please
He's just so keen for you to listen, but no one's listening
And when you put it all together
There's the model of a charmless man
He thinks his educated airs, those family shares will protect him
That you'll respect him
And yet he tries so hard to please
He's just so keen for you to listen, but no one's listening
And when you put it all together
There's the model of a charmless man
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na, na
Na-na-na-na-na, na
Na-na-na-na-na, na, na
