Mr. Pleasant - The Kinks

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

'Cause 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 limousine

Twenty-four inch TV screen?

Did you like prosperity

More than you liked 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?
