"Man For All Seasons" lyrics

"Man For All Seasons"

One eye on the shadows
Protecting his fellows
From sun up to the moon on his back
Sent the villains to Hades
A hit with the ladies
A stallion in the sack

You can't get your life back
When right follows left Jack
The more you see, the less you know
When others would leak it
His service is secret
Plays God when it's your time to go

Queen and country safe and sound
With villains six feet under ground
And no one knows 'cause no one's found
Any trace of a man for all seasons
Loves 'em and leaves 'em
Alone, so alone

And you and I wouldn't have a clue
Who's doing what, why, when and who
Up a creek with no canoe
Watch out for the man for all seasons
Loves 'em and leaves 'em
Alone, so alone
But safe at home

From the House of Lords
Saving Norfolk broads
Commoners and landed gentry
His word is Bond
Whether brunette or blonde
Baby it's so elementary

For the man never messed up your life with one stare
See the film you'll know how it goes
But this ain't no fiction
Just check the diction
Quid pro quo, a pro's pro

Hey fellas
Don't be jealous
When they made him they broke the mould
So charismatic
With an automatic
Never prematurely shooting his load

Queen and country safe and sound
With villains six feet under ground
And no one knows 'cause no one's found
Any trace of a man for all seasons
Loves 'em and leaves 'em
Alone, so alone

And you and I wouldn't have a clue
Who's doing what, why, when and who
Up a creek with no canoe
Watch out for the man for all seasons
Loves 'em and leaves 'em
Alone, so alone
But safe at home

But safe at home
But safe at home
But safe at home
But safe at home
But safe at home
But safe at home

Queen and country safe and sound
With villains six feet under ground
And no one knows 'cause no one's found
Any trace of a man for all seasons
Loves 'em and leaves 'em
Alone, so alone

And you and I wouldn't have a clue
Who's doing what, why, when and who
Up a creek with no canoe
Watch out for the man for all seasons
Loves 'em and leaves 'em
Alone, so alone
But safe at home

Queen and country safe and sound
With villains six feet under ground
And no one knows 'cause no one's found
Any trace of a man for all seasons
Loves 'em and leaves 'em
Alone, so alone

And you and I wouldn't have a clue
Who's doing what, why, when and who
Up a creek with no canoe
Watch out
