the guv'nor

brian may

oh i ain't greedy

but you gotta see my point of view

i was not born yesterday

don't you know i must've learned a thing or two

but there's a man on the loose baby

an' he's all bad

he'll tan your hide and give you what you never had

they call him the guv'nor

he's trained to kill

make way for the guv'nor

give yourself a thrill

look at the dude!

he's got the world - he got it made

he got attitude

and he got a fist - like a switchblade

and everyone in the city

gotta play his game

i don't wanna be a wannabe i wanna be it

wanna be the guv'nor

he's politically incorrect

give way give way to the guv'nor

you gotta show some respect

don't bother lookin' for a way to catch his ass

this man is cookin' with a red-hot kind of gas

he'll play them hits electrifyin'

tear you to bits and leave you -

cryin' cryin' cryin' yeah!

so get ready for the showdown -

if licks could kill we'd all be long long dead

on account of the guv'nor!

god bless the guv'nor

make way make way

for the guv'nor

you gotta see that man

let's see some respect now!
