I get up when I want
Except on Wednesdays
When I get rudely awakened by the dustmen
I put my trousers on
Have a cup of tea
And I think about leaving the house
I feed the pigeons
I sometimes feed the sparrows too
It gives me a sense of enormous well-being
And then I'm happy for the rest of the day
Safe in the knowledge
There will always be
A bit of my heart devoted to it

G D Em
I met him in a crowded room
G D Em
Where people go to drink away their gloom
Am Em C
He sat me down and so began
G D G
The story of a charmless man
G D Em
Educated the expensive way
G D Em
He knows his claret from his beaujolais
Am Em C
I think he'd like to have been Ronnie Kray
G D G
But then nature didn't make him that way

G D E
(He went) lalala la lala (2x)
G E G
He thinks his educated airs
E G
Those family shares
Bm Am Am7
Will protect him
Bm Am Am7
That we'll respect him
D7 G E G
He moves in circles of friends
E G
Who just pretend
Bm Am Am7
That they like him
Bm Am Am7
He does the same to them
D7
And when you put it all together
C7 G
There's the model of a charmless man
G D Em
He knows the swingers and their cavalry
G D Em
Says he can get in anywhere for free
Am Em C
I began to go a little cross-eyed
G D G
And from this charmless man I just had to hide
G E G
He talks at speed he gets nose bleeds
E G Bm Am Bm Am
He doesn't see his days are tumbling down upon him
G E G E G
And yet he tries so hard to please he's just so keen
Bm Am Bm
For you to listen, but no-one's listening
Am D7
And when you put it all together
C7 G
There's the model of a charmless man

Holy man tiptoed his way across the Ganges
B E F#
The sound of magic music in his ears
B A E F#
Videoed by a bus load of tourists
B E F#
Shiny shellsuits on, and drinking lemonade
B E F#
Now, I've got a funny feeling which I bought mail order
B E F#
From a man in a tee-pee in California
B A E F#
He said he once was that great game show performer
B E F# E F#
Then he blew all his money away, blew it all away

So take me home, don't leave me alone

I'm not that good, but I'm not that bad

No psycho killer, hooligan guerilla

I dream to riot, oh you should try it

I'll eat parole get gold card soul

Your joy of life is on a roll

And we'll all be the same in the end

Cos then you're on your own

Well, we all go happy day-glo in the discos
