EN
I want a job that's not too demanding Like where you do a lot of standing No way to be an elevator operator No way a salesman, no way a waiter Cause I'm a gentleman, gentleman of leisure The classified ads got nothing too appealing I don't know, but I just got the feeling I might take a while to find a position With a pretty secretary, time to do some fishing Cause I'm a gentleman, gentleman of leisure I'm a gentleman Gentleman of leisure Set me in the sun Gentleman of leisure Let me take my time Bet you I can please you Forty-hour week - can't you make it thirty No heavy lifting - you get yourself dirty Beautiful office - thirty-seven floors Paintings on the wall Title on the door says, Gentleman of Leisure I look nice in a clean white collar Take-home pay, O say a million dollars I'll keep looking, never say die Somebody, somewhere is looking for a guy Who's a gentleman, gentleman of leisure
