Cm              Cm
        Why be sweet, why be careful, why be kind?
         Fm6
A man has only one thing on his mind
      G#7
Why ask politely, why go lightly, why say please?
     G
They only want to get you on your knees
 
 
[Chorus]
           Fm6
There's a few things that I never could believe, oh
     Cm
A woman when she weeps, A merchant when he swears
Fm6
   A thief who says he'll pay, A lawyer when he cares
Cm
A snake when he is sleeping, A drunkard when he prays
 
 
[Bridge]
   Fm6
I don't believe you go to heaven, when you're good

        Laissez-faire mi amour, ce la vie.
        Fm6
Shall I return to shore or swim back out to sea?

The world don't care what a sailor does in town
G
It's all hanging in the windows by the pound

        I only want to hear you purr, and to hear you moan
         F#m6
You have another man, who brings the money home
A7
   I don't want dishes in the sink
G#
Don't ask me what I feel or what I think
 
 
[Chorus]
           F#m6
There's a few things that, I never could believe, oh
    C#m
A woman when she weeps, A merchant when he swears

A thief who says he'll pay, A lawyer when he cares
C#m
A snake when he is sleeping, A drunkard when he prays
