Steve Harley - Mr. Raffles (Man It Was Mean) lyrics

Harley Man, it was mean to be seen in the robes you wore for Lent You must've known that it was Easter There for a while in your smile I could see Mexico blood say 'This is true, I was a teaser' There were a thousand manitas being exchanged for pesetas.

We're having a party Ooh-ooh, we're having a party …
