Sorry, Enzo, I beat you to it. :P
There's a man who leads a life of danger
To every measurement he seems a stranger
With every calc he makes another chance he takes
Odds are he won't live to count tomorrow
Anti-metric man, Anti-metric man
They've given you a number and taken away your name
Beware of measurements that you may find
A decimal reveals a metric mind
Ah, be careful what you say
Or you'll give yourself away
Odds are you won't live to count tomorrow
Secret “standard” man, secret “standard” man
They've given you a decimal and taken away your brain
[Lead guitar]
Secret “standard” man, secret “standard” man
They've given you a decimal and taken away your brain
Swingin' on the Riviera one day
And then layin' in the Bombay alley next day
Oh no, you let the wrong word slip
While kissing persuasive lips
The odds are you won't live to count tomorrow
Secret “standard” man, secret “standard” man
They've given you a decimal and taken away your brain
Secret “standard” man 8)
