Thankless Man Lyrics by George Moir

Wish You Were Here

2023

[Verse 1]
Visiting my friends and my family
Think I'll just unpack, gonna stay the week
Talk about myself, we're having such a great time
Why'd they look so glad when they wave goodbye
[Pre-Chorus]
Whenever I'm on my way
I never let them know
It's always a surprise they
Don't know when I'm gon' show
I really feel this sofa bed was made for me
So I went to town, cut my very own key
[Chorus]
Ooh, here comes the thankless man
He'll take whatever he can
Where he goes he almost never has a plan
He says, "I can tell that you don't really want me here"
"Pulled all of the favours that I can this year"
Ooh, here comes the thankless man
[Verse 2]
Everybody leaves for the nine-to-five
Can you break for lunch? I'm on flexitime
Order two of each so I've got one spare
We always split the bill 'cause it's only fair
[Pre-Chorus]
I have expensive taste it don't matter what it is
It ain't about the flavour
I only get the fizz
Things are always slow in the afternoon
I finish at three, man I'll see you soon
[Chorus]
Ooh, here comes the thankless man
He'll take whatever he can
Where he goes he almost never has a plan
He says, "I can tell that you don't really want me here"
"Pulled all of the favours that I can this year"
Ooh, here comes the thankless man
[Bridge]
I get to see
All of my friends
Every day
Spend it with them
I have the best time
I get to see
All of my friends
Every day
Spend it with them
We have the best time
He's trying the best that he can
Thankless Man
So why don't you give him a chance
[Chorus]
Ooh, here comes the thankless man
He'll take whatever he can
Where he goes he almost never has a plan
He says, "I can tell that you don't really want me here"
"Pulled all of the favours that I can this year"
Ooh, here comes the thankless man
