| [00:25.773] | I was created in the fleshpots of Araby |
| [00:29.110] | My mother was the Emperor’s secretary |
| [00:32.152] | My father, a notorious libertine |
| [00:34.824] | Escaped from Sodom and Gomorrah, the cities of the plain |
| [00:37.910] | You can read my family’s rise and fall in Gibbon |
| [00:44.156] | I was born to be adored by women |
| [00:50.179] | Well Seth begat Clem and then Clem begat Ruth |
| [00:53.206] | And then Ruth begat me and all hell broke loose |
| [00:56.644] | The tribes all began to multiply and boom |
| [00:59.773] | And, looking at their kids, no-one knew from whom |
| [01:02.731] | The beautiful things kept springing |
| [01:08.532] | Well I was born to be adored by women |
| [01:14.551] | My hair is long, distinguished, prematurely grey |
| [01:17.468] | I’ve got a mouth like Ernest Hemingway’s ashtray |
| [01:20.754] | I’ve fathered one hundred and three illegitimate kids |
| [01:24.191] | I’ve never met a mother I couldn’t bed |
| [01:26.859] | I love children, spiders, snakes, and anything living |
| [01:32.845] | I was born to be adored by women |
| [01:38.852] | Some guys can erect garden furniture |
| [01:42.046] | That must be what God invented husbands for |
| [01:45.202] | But if you need a milk chocolate in the shape of a man |
| [01:48.211] | If you need a chunk of marzipan the size of Taiwan |
| [01:51.710] | Look up the chimney, see what Santa’s bringing |
| [01:57.421] | Well I was born to be adored by women |
| [02:03.781] | Well I know I’m always late since my watch got sold |
| [02:06.450] | But I’m worth the wait, the weight in gold |
| [02:09.846] | After God made me, they broke the mould |
| [02:12.775] | And I’ve broken all the records with that old song |
| [02:15.998] | Bold girls are so fond of singing |
| [02:21.988] | I was born to be adored by women |
| [02:52.678] | Well my favourite bird is the cuckoo, punk |
| [02:55.692] | My favourite beast, the funky skunk |
| [02:58.790] | My favourite colour is the emerald green |
| [03:01.595] | Chuck the football king goes when his beauty queen |
| [03:04.624] | Comes to me when she’s chucked him in |
| [03:10.778] | Well I was born to be adored by women |
| [03:41.653] | Well what I don’t know about love technique |
| [03:44.245] | You could scribble in biro on the balls of your feet |
| [03:47.322] | I never wear underwear, I drive a dead beat |
| [03:50.879] | Landrover in my bare feet |
| [03:53.619] | Stark naked, there’s always one more river to go swim in |
| [03:59.740] | I was born to be adored by women |
| [00:25.773] | I was created in the fleshpots of Araby |
