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 bills
at every suave young man . . . . . chorus

and he likes his own backyard ,
and he likes his fags the best ,
cause hes better than the rest ,
and his own sweat smells the best ,
and he hopes to grab his fathers loot ,
when pater passes on . . . . . chorus

and he plays at stocks and shares ,
and he goes to the regatta ,
and he adores the girl next door ,
cause hes dying to get at her ,
but his mother knows the best about
the matrimonial stakes . . . . . chorus
