Cautionary family man

attending to business as best he can

Mrs. Misadventure will say

check for one million in the post today

And like a dream come true

only ourselves to please

When I can hold on to

these precious things



We are not rich

we are not poor

we never stand tall

on what we know

and every day

will mean the same

to those we love

we raise our voice



Irish whisky and a table for two

on troublesome occassion

the best thing to do

take advantage of myself and my time

I don't give up easily

what is rightly mine



We are not rich

we are not poor

we never stand tall

on what we know



Cautionary family man

attending to business as best he can

Cautionary a family man

protecting his interests as best he can

Mrs. Missadventure will say

we never stand tall

on what we know

and every day
