Master Of The House (исполнитель: )
[bad word] Monsieur, sit yourself down And meet the best innkeeper in town As for the rest, all of 'em crooks: Rooking their guests and crooking the books Seldom do you see Honest men like me gent of good intent Who's content to be Master of the house, doling out the charm Ready with a handshake and an open palm Tells a saucy tale, makes a little stir Customers appreciate a bon-viveur Glad to do a friend a favor Doesn't cost me to be nice But nothing gets you nothing Everything has got a little price! Master of the house, keeper of the zoo Ready to relieve 'em of a sou or two Watering the wine, making up the weight Pickin' up their knick-knacks when they can't see straight Everybody loves a landlord Everybody's bosom friend I do whatever pleases Jesus! Won't I bleed 'em in the end! Master of the house, quick to catch yer eye Never wants a passerby to pass him by Servant to the poor, butler to the [bad word] philosopher, and lifelong mate! Everybody's [bad word] Everybody's chaperone But lock up your valises Jesus! Won't I skin you to the bone! Enter Monsieur, lay down your load Unlace your boots, rest from the road This weighs a ton, travel's a curse But here we strive to lighten your purse Here the goose is cooked Here the fat is fried And nothing's overlooked Till I'm satisfied Food [bad word] Food beyond belief Mix it in a mincer and pretend it's beef Kidney of a horse, liver of a cat Filling up the sausages with this and that Residents are more than [bad word] Bridal suite is occupied Reasonable charges Plus some little extras on the side! Charge 'em for the lice, extra for the mice Two percent for looking in the mirror twice Here a little slice, there a little cut Three percent for sleeping with the window shut When [bad word] to fixing prices There are a lot of tricks he knows How it all increases, all them bits and pieces Jesus! It's amazing how it grows! Master of the house, quick to catch yer eye Never wants a passerby to pass him by Servant to the poor, butler to the [bad word] philosopher, and lifelong mate! Everybody's [bad word] Gives 'em everything he's got Dirty bunch of geezers Jesus! What a sorry little lot! I used to dream that I would meet a prince But God Almighty, have you seen what's happened since? Master of the house? Isn't worth me spit! [bad word] philosopher' and lifelong [bad word] Cunning little brain, regular Voltaire Thinks he's quite a lover but there's not much there What a [bad word] trick of nature landed me with such a louse God knows how I've lasted living with this [bad word] in the house! Master of the house! Master and a half! [bad word] philosopher Ah, don't make me laugh! Servant to the poor, butler to the great Hypocrite and toady and inebriate! Everybody bless the landlord! Everybody bless his spouse! Everybody raise a glass Raise it up the master's [bad word] Everybody raise a glass to the Master of the House!
