But no one's listening
And from this charmless man I just had to hide
Those family shares will protect him
Educated the expensive way
I began to go a little cross-eyed
I think he'd like to have been Ronnie Kray
There's the model of a charmless man
I met him in a crowded room
And when you put it all together
But no one's listening
He knows his Claret from his Beaujolais

Says he can get in anywhere for free
And when you put it all together
He went
That you'll respect him
There's the model of a charmless man
But then nature didn't make him that way
He's just so keen for you to listen
He knows the swingers and their cavalry
And when you put it all together
He's just so keen for you to listen
But no one's listening
He thinks his educated airs
And yet he tries so hard to please
And yet he tries so hard to please
He went
That we'll respect him
He thinks his educated airs
And yet he tries so hard to please
Those family shares will protect him
He's just so keen for you to listen
He sat me down and so began
Down upon him
The story of a charmless man
Where people go to drink away their gloom
He talks at speed, he gets nose bleeds
There's the model of a charmless man
He doesn't see, his days are tumbling
