It is a shame that there is no YouTube link to the melody of this song.
Charm and Arrogance ->
Very broad of shoulder, slightly less of mind
Here is the boy she left behind
His the behind she left before she met me.. honestly
And he says "hey" and I say "what"
And he says, "What cha got that I ain't got?"
And I say "pardon?" and he says "Hey!, what's she see in you anyway?"
And I say
"Well I'm sexy as hell, I'm an excellent lover and reasonable cook,
She likes my wit, and the way that I spit
And she adores the narratorial voice of my book
Her love of my lyrics is only surpassed
By her great admiration for my vocal inflections
She approves of my charity, complexional clarity
Dress sense, intelligence, all day erections
Delights in my habit of quoting from Nabokov
Can't get enough of my Old-World gentility,
Thinks that my sketches of local letches,
Show an exceptional technical facility,
Found it charming that on my disarming a recent intruder
at four in the morning
I fined him his trousers, wallet and gun,
let him off with a warning, and forgot to tell anyone,
Some if not all of these characteristics
Lead to her lipstick's being on me."
