The Kinks Lyrics
"Mr Pleasant"

Oh Mr Pleasant
How is Mrs Pleasant?
I hope the world is treating you right
And your head's in the air
And you're feeling so proud,
Cos you're such a success
And the whole wide world is on your side (hey-hey)
How are you today?

People say "Mr Pleasant is good"
"Mr Pleasant is kind"
"Mr Pleasant's okay"
"Mr Pleasant don't mind"
As long as Mr Pleasant's alright (hey-hey)
How are you today?

How's your father? How's your mother?
How's your sister? How's your brother?
How's your brand new limosuine? 24 inch TV screen!
Did you like prosperity, more than you like poverty?

Life is easier, so much easier
Life is easier now

Oh Mr Pleasant
How is Mrs Pleasant?
Did you know she was flirting around
With another young man?
And he's taking her out
When you have to work late
And it's not so pleasant after all (hey-hey)
How are you today?

People say "Mr Pleasant is good"
"Mr Pleasant is kind"
"Mr Pleasant's okay"
"Mr Pleasant don't mind"
As long as Mr Pleasant's alright (hey-hey)
How are you today?

("Mr Pleasant is good")
("Mr Pleasant is kind")
("Mr Pleasant's okay")
