Fancy Man

I heard there's a brand new zoo in Thailand
So I hitch hike on a private flight and got there, man, fast!
I've greased every palm from A to Z
Hey mister, wanna date with me?
I know what I've got to do and I'll do it
From the day I was born
The whole world's been my stepping stone
I come from a long line of people
Who've never waited in a line
I've got a dumb dance inside my pants, man
And I've watched all the latest shows on Bing-Bong
I rode a gift horse into town
Free subscriptions all around
You look like you could use a night in heaven
We're so in love
Everywhere we go it's walking on the water
And suddenly all the pain
And all the tears are music to my ears
'Cause I'm a fancy man
Fancy man
I'm a fancy man
Fancy man
Fancy man
I looked into my eyes and I saw order
An endless row of flowers along the border
It's no ordinary tragedy
Let the credits roll on the top of me
First I'm going to do it, then I'll do it
'Cause love's the yes
Within the yes
And everyone's walking on the water
Only the finest worms will feast on me
Be sure to RSVP
'Cause I'm a fancy man
Fancy man
I'm a fancy man
Fancy man
Fancy man
Sometimes I get to think
Is this fancy thinking?
Is this a fancy thought?
I'm pretty sure it's not
