[verse] Close your eyes, let’s get mystic Don’t be atheistic For tonight I’ll be your apostle Of common sense All through the night Eat the cheese with the bread Girl, all things considered Don’t bawl and I won’t get cross I will do anything Girl, let’s get drunk on wonder [chorus] I’m your Chesterton You’re my paradox Let’s get orthodox I’m your everlasting man I'll be your GK The man who was Thursday Absent mindedness Is just presence of mind on you Girl, relax, let's go slow I ain't Clarence Darrow I'm like father Brown You’re my mystery It's gonna be a long night Grab your beer and your pipe On the floor (on the floor) I'm gonna take off my cape I've made plans to be with you (Girl, whatever you ask me you know I can do) [chorus] I’m your Chesterton You’re my paradox Let’s get orthodox I’m your everlasting man I'll be your GK The man who was Thursday Absent mindedness Is just presence of mind on you [verse] Baby, tonight the sane will revolt Let’s make magic (that’s a play that I wrote) wrote) No denials just a-vowels Anything that you ask Except for the prison of jazz Because girl you’re as sexy as eugenics is evil [chorus] I’m your Chesterton You’re my paradox Let’s get orthodox I’m your everlasting man I'll be your GK The man who was Thursday Absent mindedness Is just presence of mind on you [chorus] I’m your Chesterton You’re the besterton Let’s go flying inn Let’s go mad on virtues I'll be your GK The man who was Thursday Absent mindedness Is just presence of mind on you I’m Napoleon You’re my Notting Hill So just take my hand I’ll lead you to elf land It’s worth doing Even if it’s done bad I'm your Chesterton
