He's a well respected man about town
  F                    
Doing the best things so 
D           G    G/C  G
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 
Bill's at every suave young man 
...CHORUS

And he likes his own backyard and he
 likes his fags the best
Cos he's better than the rest and 
his arm sweat smells the best
And he hope to grab his father's 
loot when pater passes on ...CHORUS

And he plays at stocks and shares, 
and he goes to the regatta
He adores the girl next door cos 
he's dying to get at her
But his mother knows the best about 
the matrimonial stakes ...CHORUS


NOTE: As with many Kinks songs, I 
don't know all the words.  Can 
anyone
fill in the mystery spots?
