He’s a winner, they say

Got a wife, a car and a maid

In a house where someone used to live

Just another fairy tale

 

He’s a charmer, they whisper

He’s a worker, they say

Got his actions safely controlled

His wife keeps apples in a bowl

 

But is there anyone who knows

About his nocturnal shows

He goes here and there, he goes everywhere

Mrs.Winner´s unaware about his

 

Dances down the lonely avenue

Flipping his pockets with a speed she’ll never know

Takes of his hat more than ten times every night

Until the morning finally breaks into the light

 

Returns to toast and coffee served by negligee

Puts on his kimono as if nothing’s ever changed

Then reads the paper, there’s a story  about a girl

That is noted missing from the night before

 

Got his conscience all right

Though he’s lonesome at times

But he’s a bad news man, we all know that

He feels nothing inside

 

He’s pulling on a smile

While he puts on his tie

Goes to work, here comes the handsome guy

His exterior’s a lie

 

But is there anyone who knows

About his nocturnal shows

He goes here and there, he goes everywhere

Mrs.Winner´s unaware about his

 

Dances down the lonely avenue

Flipping his pockets with a speed she’ll never know

Takes of his hat more than ten times every night

Until the morning finally breaks into the light, about his

 

Dances down the lonely avenue

Flipping his pockets with a speed she’ll never know

Takes of his hat more than ten times every night

Until the morning finally breaks into the light
