lyrics

These words are for all you single ladies listening out there
I'm 44, eleven stone with a full head of hair.
My BMI's exemplary and contrary to rumour
I combine finesse and charm with a great sense of humour.
You're not to think I'm desperate all pain and loneliness
I'm the knight in shining armour, you're the damsel in distress.

No woman's fond of being chased
By some emotional basket case,
I'm not this wannabe suicide standing on a ledge,
I'm nice guy with an edge.

Es majo y tiene algo.
No estoy tan seguro.
Creo que me (se) apartaré.
No participaré.
Lo que dice no parece verdad.
Da escalofrios.

I like dining out, dancing, cinema, pubs and parties,
But I've a sensitive side so I do yoga and pilates.
The woman of my dreams is sexy, beautiful and curvy
I won't give too much detail - I might come across as pervy.
If you have emotional baggage, leave it on the carousel
We won't need that when we check in at the Love Hotel.

You'll find I'm loyal and I'm and grounded
Tongues may wag but it's all unfounded
If you're still unsure then I'll make a solemn pledge
I hereby do declare I'm a really nice guy - with an edge.

Es majo y tiene algo etc.

Of course I've had to sex things up to make me more appealing
But accuracy's for bank clerks, I'm more concerned with feeling.
The girls at work don't seem that keen but they don't understand
How to tell between a sex pest and a ladies man
What separates a ogle from a glance is I reckon
Nothing more than 0. 75 of a second.

I'm a regular decent sort of bloke
Who just occasionally makes a bad taste joke
And all that inappropriate stuff- it's just what they allege.
I'm a nice guy - with an edge.

Es majo y tiene algo etc.
