"The Suit" lyrics

"The Suit"

It is your character
Deep in your nature
Take one example
Sample and hold
Romance and replace
The lack in yourself
It's your nature

It's your nature
We see you climbing
Improving the effort
Wearing my suit
It is your character

There is a limit
Over your shoulder
Everyone loves you
Until they know you

Perfume aerosols
May champion the strangers
Nick

Standing around
All the right people

Crawling
Tennis on Tuesday
The ladder is long
It is your nature

You've gotta suntan
Football on Sunday
Society boy
On Social Security
It is your nature

Tennis on Tuesday
Sipping champagne
Football on Sunday
Home on the train
It is your nature

Girl from Totteridge Park
Said you were nice
So was my suit
The ladder is long
