A WELL-RESPECTED MAN (Ray Davies) Recorded by : Average Sun; Nick Binkley; The Kinks; Josh Rouse. 'Cause he gets up in the morning, And he goes to work at nine, And he comes back home at five-thirty, Gets the same train every time. 'Cause his world is built 'round punctuality, It never fails. And he's oh, so good, And he's oh, so fine, And he's oh, so healthy, In his body and his mind. He's a well respected man about town, Doing the best things so conservatively. 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 'Cause he's oh, so good, And he's oh, so fine, And he's oh, so healthy, In his body and his mind. He's a well respected man about town, Doing the best things so conservatively. And he likes his own backyard, And he likes his fags the best, 'Cause he's better than the rest, And his own sweat smells the best, And he hopes to grab his father's loot, When Pater passes on. 'Cause he's oh, so good, And he's oh, so fine, And he's oh, so healthy, In his body and his mind. He's a well respected man about town, Doing the best things so conservatively. And he plays at stocks and shares, And he goes to the Regatta, And he adores the girl next door, 'Cause he's dying to get at her, But his mother knows the best about The matrimonial stakes. 'Cause he's oh, so good, And he's oh, so fine, And he's oh, so healthy, In his body and his mind. He's a well respected man about town, Doing the best things so conservatively. ***** UN JEUNE HOMME BIEN (A Well-Respected Man) (Frank Gerald / Ray Davies) Petula Clark - 1966 Claire Lepage - 1966 Renée Martel - 1966 Il se lève de bonne heure Jamais plus tard que midi Il prend juste une heure pour s'habiller Car on lui a toujours dit Que c'est grâce à la ponctualité Que son père a réussi Il est ô parfait Il est ô gentil Il est ô capable Sain de corps et sain d'esprit C'est vraiment quelqu'un de bien ce jeune homme Il fera sûrement son chemin dans la vie Et sa mère joue au bridge Avec des amis charmants Elle connaît la femme d'un ministre Et la voit assez souvent Car elle s'intéresse à la carrière De deux ou trois jeunes gens Il est ô parfait Il est ô gentil Il est ô capable Sain de corps et sain d'esprit C'est vraiment quelqu'un de bien ce jeune homme Il fera sûrement son chemin dans la vie Il adore sa voiture Il sait même bricoler Il a réparé le vase Que sa bonne avait cassé Il sera très bien se débrouiller Quand il aura hérité Il est ô parfait Il est ô gentil Il est ô capable Sain de corps et sain d'esprit C'est vraiment quelqu'un de bien ce jeune homme Il fera sûrement son chemin dans la vie Il fréquente une jeune fille Il en est très amoureux C'est dommage que sa famille Ne soit pas du même milieu Mais sa mère a déjà trouvé Un mariage beaucoup mieux Il est ô parfait Il est ô gentil Il est ô capable Sain de corps et sain d'esprit C'est vraiment quelqu'un de bien ce jeune homme Il fera sûrement son chemin dans la vie *****
