History Boys movie - This Charming Man lyrics

rate me

Song by The Smiths<br /><br>

Punctured bicycle <br>

On a hillside desolate <br>

Will nature make a man of me yet ? <br>

<br>

When in this charming car <br>

This charming man <br>

<br>

Why pamper life's complexities <br>

When the leather runs smooth <br>

On the passenger seat ? <br>

<br>

I would go out tonight <br>

But I haven't got a stitch to wear <br>

This man said "It's gruesome <br>

That someone so handsome should care" <br>

<br>

A jumped-up pantry boy <br>

Who never knew his place <br>

He said "return the ring" <br>

He knows so much about these things <br>

He knows so much about these things <br>

<br>

I would go out tonight <br>

But I haven't got a stitch to wear <br>

This man said "It's gruesome <br>

That someone so handsome should care" <br>

Na, na-na, na-na, na-na, this charming man ... <br>

Oh, na-na, na-na, na-na, this charming man ... <br>

<br>

A jumped-up pantry boy <br>

Who never knew his place <br>

He said "return the ring" <br>

He knows so much about these things <br>

He knows so much about these things <br>

He knows so much about these things <br>

<br>

New York version adds : <br>

<br>

I would go out tonight <br>

But I haven't got a stitch to wear <br>

<br>

I would go out tonight <br>

But I haven't got a stitch to wear <br>

Oh, la-la, la-la, la-la, this charming man ... <br>

Oh, la-la, la-la, la-la, this charming man ... <br>

<br>

A jumped-up pantry boy <br>

Who never knew his place <br>

He said "return the ring" <br>

He knows so much about these things <br>

He knows so much about these things <br>

He knows so much about these things<br>

<br>
