Mr. Charm
(Jagger/Richards)

 

(All right, you rollin'?)

 

I know we've never met, but you seem to know my name
Did you hear bad things about me? That would be a crying shame
If you look into my eyes, if you peer into my face
Can you read the good and see the bad? Don't have to be afraid

 

Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm
Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm
Well, I would never, never, never, never do you harm
Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm

 

Life's too short for just making money

Show me how to spend it, honey

Life's too short to waste it living on your own (tell it)

Life's too short, nothing lasts forever

Can't be bought, help me bring you pleasure

Life's too short to waste it living on your own (yeah)

 

I could show you places that you have never seen

And fill your mind with images of tantalizing dreams

And caves full of crystals, shot through with pink and green

And No Man's Land in the darkest days of 1916

 

Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm

Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm

I would never, never, never, never do you harm

Don't have to be afraid, don't have to be alarmed

 

Life's too short for just making money

Ain't no fool, ain't nobody's monkey

Life's too short to waste it living on your own (oh)

Life's too short, nothing lasts forever

Can't be bought, help me bring you pleasure

Life's too short to waste it living on your own

 

When I was oh-so-young, I used to want to go to Mars

And burn the rubber on the road

And drive around in fancy cars

When who would take you into space?

Who would you really trust?

Is it Boeing, is it NASA, is it mad mogul Mr. Musk?

Now I'm older, I would like to ask you if tonight

We could stay at home, you see, I'm really quite polite

I would make you cocktails, pour you wine, you're obviously so erudite Do anagrams spew epigrams?

I don't give a damn, Madame

 

Life's too short for just making money

Show me how to spend it with you, honey

Life's too short to waste it living on your own (come on)

Life's too short, nothing lasts forever  

Can't be bought, help me bring you pleasure

Life's too short to waste it living all alone  

Call me Mr. Charm

 

Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm

Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm

I think that you'd be the perfect woman on my arm

Don't have to be afraid, don't have to be alarmed

Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm

Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm

Don't have to be afraid, don't have to be alarmed

Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm

Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm

Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm

Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm

Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm (whatever make you hard, baby, charm)
