I walked into this bar
and the man refused;
he said, "we don't serve strangers
in blue suede shoes;
we don't give credit, and
we don't give way--
we have to think about what the people might say..
uh, you know what i mean..."
i said, "sure, man"
Oh, he gave me a smile that was sickly and wet,
and i offered him one of my cigarettes.
he took it, afraid that he might appear rude,
then proceeded to sell me some second class food.
nice guy - meet 'em everywhere.. .
He said, "my oh my, i have suffered too long,
and this cigarette seems to be very strong;
i don't make the rules
i just get what i take
and i guess every rule was made to break.
you can take what you like, it won't hurt me
cause iĄŻm just working for the company."
from the green cigarette, he took a long drag,
and said, "i think i'll pick my travelling bag.
IĄŻm tired of cheating, and wasting my head
and filling the boss's bags with bread.
i want to get out in the sun and rain,
and feel the wind on on skin again;
the world is large, and i've got time yet.
and, by the way, thanks for that cigarette..
thank you very much."
"you know, i feel like a new man
yes i do, i don't know why;
iĄŻd just like to say
thank you very much(indeed)
it's a beautiful day
i think i'll be on my way (right away)
i'd just like to say
thank you very much.
yes, i'm getting the hell out of here
yes, i am - bye, bye.
that's the end of the message
thank you very much.
bye bye...
