Eels - Gentlemen's Choice lyrics
[Eels - Gentlemen's Choice lyrics]
Slept in all day in dirty sheets
The stain on my shirt been there for weeks
When I was young I had a dream
I would be held in high esteem
I thought I'd end up a gentleman
Distinguished, respected, refined
The life that I've led it's better unsaid
The world has no use for my kind
Too many years getting my way
Never let anyone have their say
How could I think it would work out?
Never a question, never a doubt
I thought I'd end up a gentleman
Accomplished, revered and admired
The life that I've led i'm better off dead
The world has no room for my kind
The stain on my shirt been there for weeks
When I was young I had a dream
I would be held in high esteem
I thought I'd end up a gentleman
Distinguished, respected, refined
The life that I've led it's better unsaid
The world has no use for my kind
Too many years getting my way
Never let anyone have their say
How could I think it would work out?
Never a question, never a doubt
I thought I'd end up a gentleman
Accomplished, revered and admired
The life that I've led i'm better off dead
The world has no room for my kind
