lyrics

In oil rivers, I’m delivered, cradled asleep,
Dreaming away my isolation,
I ran for office, just a novice, won by a mile
Slogans and bromides hysterical.
I’m taking my show on the road,
And I’ll take my time
Because I’m just a gigolo

Radness, madness, iron bones, dancing alone
Living our lives on exhibition.
Midnight tennis, I’m a menace,
Playing the blues, I’ll leave just a clue
Of my conviction.
It’s just the same wherever I go,
I’ll have my pride
But I’m just a gigolo
Roaming on through

I’m a working dude,
Muscled polished and smooth
I’m just singing a song,
As my life goes along
In everything I do,
I’m a working dude.

Well I know their scene, those penthouse queens,
Coke-lined and mean
But I’m crashing their parties And brunches.
LA Mansions, holding ransom vixens in need,
We’ll float like pink genies while swimming.
They call for me wherever I go
And I live my life,
But I’m just a gigolo,
Who nobody knew

I’m a working dude,
Muscled polished and smooth
I’m just singing a song, As my life goes along.
In everything I do,
I’m a working dude.

I’m saving all mankind,
I’ll help you lose your minds,
We’ll swim in limousines,
With all my enemies
We’ll reach the other side,
We’ll have pride in all we do

I’m a working dude,
Muscled polished and smooth
I’m just singing a song,
As my life goes along.
In everything I do,
I’m a working dude.

I’m just a working dude,
Can’t t tell me what to do,
I’m just singing a song
As my life goes along,
In everything I do,
I’m a working dude.
