Lyrics:

Welcome M'sieur
Sit yourself down
And meet the best
Innkeeper in town.
As for the rest,
All of 'em crooks
Rooking their guests
And cooking the books.
Seldom do you see
Honest men like me
A gent of good intent
Who's content to be
Master of the house
Doling out the charm
Ready with a handshake
And an open palm
Tells a saucy tale
Makes a little stir
Customers appreciate a bonviveur
Glad to do a friend a favour
Doesn't cost me to be nice
But nothing gets you nothing
Everything has got a little price!
Master of the house
Keeper of the zoo
Ready to relieve 'em
Of a sou or two
Watering the wine
Making up the weight
Pickin' up their knickknacks
When they can't see straight
Everybody loves a landlord
Everybody's bosom friend
I do whatever pleases. Jesus!
Won't I bleed 'em in the end!
Master of the house
Quick to catch yer eye
Never wants a passerby
To pass him by
Servant to the poor
Butler to the great
Comforter, philosopher,
And life-long mate!
Everybody's boon companion
Everybody's chaperone
But lock up your valises. Jesus!
Won't I skin you to the bone!
Enter M'sieur
Lay down your load
Unlace your boots
And rest from the road
This weighs a ton
Travel's a curse
But here we strive
To lighten your purse
Here the goose is cooked
Here the fat is fried
And nothing's overlooked
Till I'm satisfied...
Food beyond compare
Food beyond belief
Mix it in a mincer
And pretend it's beef
Kidney of a horse
Liver of a cat
Filling up the sausages
With this and that
Residents are more than welcome
Bridal suite is occupied
Reasonable charges
Plus some little extras on the side!
Charge 'em for the lice
Extra for the mice
Two percent for looking
In the mirror twice
Here a little slice
There a little cut
Three percent for sleeping
With the window shut
When it comes to fixing prices
There are alot of tricks he knows..
How it all increases
All those bits and pieces
Jesus! It's amazing how it grows!
Master of the house
Quick to catch yer eye
Never wants a passerby
To pass him by
Servant to the poor
Butler to the great
Comforter, philosopher,
And life-long mate!
Everybody's boon companion
Gives 'em everything he's got
Dirty bunch of geezers. Jesus!
What a sorry little lot!
I used to dream
That I would meet a prince
But God Almighty,
Have you seen what's happened since?
"Master of the house?"
Isn't worth me spit!
"Comforter, philosopher"
and life-long shit!
Cunning little brain
Regular Voltaire
Thinks he's quite a lover
But there's not much there
What a cruel trick of nature
Landed me with such a louse
God knows how I've lasted
Living with this bastard in the house!
Master of the house!
Master and a half!
Comforter, philosopher
Ah, don't make me laugh!
Servant to the poor.
Butler to the great
Hypocrite and toady and inebriate!
Everybody bless the landlord!
Everybody bless his spouse!
Everybody raise a glass
Raise it up the master's arse
Everybody raise a glass to the
Master of the house!
