Lyrics:

Get what you want while you can
I'm a generous man but no fool
The sequins were sewn on by hand by my mother
The false eye is a jewel

I'm wonderful, so marvellous. but flattery's superfluous

But when I'm lonely
What's left but a void

So get what you can while you want
I'm a generous man who said fool
The toupee was fashioned by craftsmen, draughtsmen
The cigar is a ruse

I'm meticulous, ridiculous and totally fastidious

But when I'm lonely
I haven't a friend

So get if you want what you can
I'm a generous fool some say man
I'll meet you outside on the pitch with the others
Or one afternoon with a band
Or one afternoon with a band

But when I'm lonely
Who's real and who's who

Get what you want while you can
(If you want it you can get it)
Get what you can while you want
(If you want it you can get it)
Get if you want what you can
