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