Lyrics
0:41You're pretty and you know it
0:43You're stupid and you show it
0:44If there's a soul behind your face at all
0:46I'm struggling to see it
0:48Now smile for the camera
0:50You've got what they're after
0:50Yes it's all you wanted
0:53But it's that has suffer to suffer this
1:03The best clubs in London you'll always
1:12Be around them
1:33But drinkin' ain't livin' and
1:36Drinkin' ain't givin'
1:40Nah drinkin's just drinkin's just drinkin'
1:43My sister's father had a wife
1:44Whose husband had a father
1:45Who taught me how to live
1:57But died all alone
2:05And I wish that I was with him
2:22I could tell him all the things that he's missed
2:31And all the things that you think
2:48When you think that you're alone
2:57But man you can't see what's going on
3:12At the minute you can do nothing wrong
3:21Yes you are a fortunate son
3:25But you won't fool the kids for long
You're pretty and you know it You're stupid and you show it If there's a soul behind your face at all I'm struggling to see it Now smile for the camera You've got what they're after Yes it's all you wanted But it's that has suffer to suffer this The best clubs in London you'll always Be around them But drinkin' ain't livin' and Drinkin' ain't givin' Nah drinkin's just drinkin's just drinkin' My sister's father had a wife Whose husband had a father Who taught me how to live But died all alone And I wish that I was with him I could tell him all the things that he's missed And all the things that you think When you think that you're alone But man you can't see what's going on At the minute you can do nothing wrong Yes you are a fortunate son But you won't fool the kids for long
