Lyrics

There's a shady looking fellow on the television
Mocking as a mockingbird
And there's a certain type of citizen who pities him
And hanging on his every word
They were only looking out for common people, please
'Cause they told me, they showed me
He's just a pretty straight guy
Living a pretty straight life
Whatever does a gentleman do?
He does what he likes
There's a whiff of something funny, loads of money
Being made back down the hole in the wall
And there's a creepy kind of monolithic, pessimistic
Mood who's taking over us all
They were always on the side of working families
Acolytes of Queen and country
He's just a pretty straight guy (He's just a pretty straight)
Living a pretty straight life (Living a pretty straight)
Whatever does a gentleman do?
He does what he likes
He won't use no pseudonym
There's nothing you can think of will embarrass him
And Lord only knows
He's up to something, say that Lord only knows (Lord only knows)
And Lord only knows
He's up to something, say that Lord only knows
Chips on shoulders
Weigh like boulders on your back
But you're not aware of that
He's just a pretty straight guy (He's just a pretty straight)
Living a pretty straight life (Living a pretty straight)
Whatever does a gentleman do?
He does what he likes
He won't use no pseudonym
There's nothing you can think of will embarrass him
And Lord only knows
He's up to something, say that Lord only knows (Lord only knows)
And Lord only knows
He's up to something, say that Lord only knows
Ooh, ooh, ooh
