Lyrics: Andrew Stewart
Music: Andrew Stewart
Without hurting you - how can I make you see
This might mean everything to you - but it don’t mean nothing to me
And whilst your hangers on - are laughing nervously
You’ll lock them in your penthouse suite - and throw away the key
Gorgeous George - the last of the go-getters
Gorgeous George - a dandy to the letter
You really should know better
Such exquisite taste - from your head to toes
Stuck inside your lady’s chambers - powdering your nose
And now your holding court - with the Pearly King
Whilst outside on your balcony - this mocking bird will sing
Gorgeous George - the last of the go-getters
Gorgeous George - a dandy to the letter
You really should know better
You needn’t walk so proud - you shouldn’t talk so loud
You’re just a face in the crowd - and you should know it
You flit from floor to foor - buying up the store
But you still want more - then you blow it - then you blow it
I’ve a life of my own - but you refuse to see
One hundred at your beck and call - so why’d you pick on me
Shall I return that call - talk to your answerphone
Just make sure that your blinds are drawn - pretend you’re not at home
Gorgeous George - the last of the go-getters
Gorgeous George - a dandy to the letter
You really should know better
You needn’t walk so proud - you’re just a face in the crowd
And you should know it
But you still want more
Gorgeous George
