Lyrics

I walked into this bar
And the man refused;
He said, "we don't serve strangers
In blue suede shoes;
We don't give credit, and
We don't give way--
We have to think about what the people might say.
Uh, you know what I mean..."
I said, "sure, man"

Oh, he gave me a smile that was sickly and wet
And I offered him one of my cigarettes
He took it, afraid that he might appear rude
Then proceeded to sell me some second class food
Nice guy - meet 'em everywhere..

He said, "my oh my, I have suffered too long
And this cigarette seems to be very strong;
I don't make the rules
I just get what I take
And I guess every rule was made to break
You can take what you like, it won't hurt me
Cause i'm just working for the company."
From the green cigarette, he took a long drag
And said, "i think I'll pick my travelling bag

I'm tired of cheating, and wasting my head
And filling the boss's bags with bread
I want to get out in the sun and rain
And feel the wind on on skin again;
The world is large, and I've got time yet
And, by the way, thanks for that cigarette.
Thank you very much."

"You know, I feel like a new man
Yes I do, I don't know why;
I'd just like to say
Thank you very much(indeed)
It's a beautiful day
I think I'll be on my way (right away)
I'd just like to say
Thank you very much
Yes, I'm getting the hell out of here
Yes, I am - bye, bye
That's the end of the message
Thank you very much
Bye bye..
