The Flattery Stakes

歌詞

Get what you want while you can I'm a generous man but no fool The sequins were sewn on by hand by my mother The false eye is a jewel I'm wonderful, so marvellous. but flattery's superfluous But when I'm lonely What's left but a void So get what you can while you want I'm a generous man who said fool The toupee was fashioned by craftsmen, draughtsmen The cigar is a ruse I'm meticulous, ridiculous and totally fastidious But when I'm lonely I haven't a friend So get if you want what you can I'm a generous fool some say man I'll meet you outside on the pitch with the others Or one afternoon with a band Or one afternoon with a band But when I'm lonely Who's real and who's who Get what you want while you can (If you want it you can get it) Get what you can while you want (If you want it you can get it) Get if you want what you can
