Edit By: 216.73.216.253

Words & music by steven page & ed robertson

You know hes not the kind of man who likes to see the world around him
Crumble to a ball around his feet.
So hes always ready, hes always set, hes always well prepared,
Hes the most peculiar man youll ever meet.

Chorus
You know hes not the king of bedside manor.
Hes not the tom jones that lives next door.
Hes not the king of bedside manor.
He hardly even lives there anymore.

He says excuse me, I hope you dont mind
That I followed you into this shop
But I couldnt help but notice that riding crop.
Sticking out of your haversack, um,
I wouldnt mind riding you bareback.
Hes subtle on the dancefloor and hes suave around the bar.
Hes a quickdraw with a lighter, hes a pseudo movie star.
You know he was quite a singer, quite an actor
Quite some time ago.
He had quite a famous program, late night bedtime tv show.

Chorus

Well he opens up the curtains at the crack of dawn
Just to see the lovely ladies who have come and gone.
From the house next door to his house on the lane
He consoles himself that hes got his health and he knows he cant complain.

Chorus

Hes not the king of bedside manor
Hes not the king of bedside manor
Hardly even lives there anymore.

Domo arigato mr. roboto

Hes not the king, hes not the king, hes not the king of bedside manor.
