[Verse 1]
He did his little dance
There up in the north of Spain
Danced all the way to France
Just to try and bring her rain
That’s the way of this man

[Verse 2]
He rolled away the stone
With a plastic crucifix
‘Cause he’d rather get his kicks
Than to be here all alone
That’s the way of this man

[Chorus]
He’s not much of a bel esprit
She can’t seem to understand him
A bit more like a chimpanzee

[Verse 3]
She thinks he has no soul
’Cause he never learned to crawl
That’s the way of this man

[Verse 4]
And that he can only sing
Of his incipient love
That’s the way of this man
[Chorus]
He’s not much of a bel esprit
She can’t seem to understand him
A bit more like a chimpanzee

[Outro]
That’s the way of this man
That’s the way of this man
That’s the way of this man
That’s the way of this man
