A Well Respected Man

by The Kinks
on Kinda Kinks

Lyrics

'Cause he gets up in the morning,
And he goes to work at nine,
And he comes back home at five-thirty,
Gets the same train every time.

I love this song
The Kinks rock
Today's hipsters have no idea how great the Kinks were early on. Ray Davies rivals all the great Brits from 1964. I love his blatant cynicism. Saw them in 1971.
I love the Kinks but when I'm in the mood for The Fugs I want to hear The Fugs. You should do whole album sides the way they were meant to be heard like on Grooveshark.

Melancholy, yet cheerful.
Reminds me of Don Draper.
I like their early and later stuff pretty evenly, but there's a certain finesse to their chiller, earlier songs before Ray Davies had a taste for cocaine lol. Then the edgier stuff came in, equally great
When I think of the Kinks....I think a little heavier sound....but this song and a few others like it are what makes them so much better than your average rock group. Know what I mean ?
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! That life seems a bit to predictable to me, though. LOL!!
