"A Nice Thing To Do" lyrics

He tapped you on the shoulder of your shiny Italian suit
And you looked at him like he was made of mud
He paid you a compliment and then you brushed him off of you
And he stood there studying the ballroom rug

You should be careful who you treat like that at a party
What if your castle ever crumbles under you?
You never know, someday he might be somebody
And if not, it's still not a nice thing to do

More power to you and that watch you got on your wrist
Pinky up on your gin martini
You're the kind of guy that needs a pseudonym on hotel guest lists
And maybe to you being rude don't seem to unseemly but

You should be careful who you treat like that at a party
What if your castle ever crumbles under you?
You never know, someday he might be somebody
And if not, it's still not a nice thing to do
Do, do, oooh
Do, do, oooh

And you wouldn't remember but we've met before
Good to see you, thanks for leaving my name at the door
The last time that we talked you made me feel as small as
Well, that guy over there messing with his lapel

You should be careful who you treat like that at a party
What if your castle ever crumbles under you?
You never know, someday he might be somebody
And if not, it's still not a nice thing to do
Do, do, oooh (A nice thing to do)
Do, do, oooh
