Heir Gordon

Lyrics

There was a young man named Arthur Gordon
 Heir to a large family fortune
 Walking 'round, all prissy and full of himself
 Pissing money, showing his wealth
 Built a little shrine to the Gordon name
 Hyped it from his front-row seat at all the games
 Opened a restaurant, called it, guess what?
 Arthur's, of course, he did strut his stuff
 Heir Gordon
 Born on a mountaintop in Tennessee
 Heir Gordon
 His life sure looks good to me
 Got a little Brylcreem, a dab will do
 Droppin' funny acid, a tab or two
 Wearing undergarments from a Mormon friend
 Touching all the bases 'round the Cub Scout den
 Heir Gordon
 Got a lot of money but he ain't worth a damn
 Heir Gordon
 Makes me feel just like a man
 Heir Gordon
 Born on a mountaintop in Tennessee
 Heir Gordon
 His life sure looks good to me
 Heir Gordon
 Born on a mountaintop in Tennessee
 Heir Gordon
 Why is he doing all these nice things for me?
 Doing such nice things for me?
