Owe Mr. O

[Intro]
(Bang! Bang! Bang!)
There's a knock at the back door
(Pay! Pay! Pay!)
Like an amateur actor

[Verse 1]
It’s that man
With his face on the poster
He won the deed
(He's a boaster)
What can you say?
He's been knocking all day
I think he’s got the mind to stay

[Pre-Chorus]
(Oh) Mr. O doesn't beg your pardon
And Mr. O doesn't like to bargain
Been sitting in his office nine to five
And suddenly he's come alive

[Chorus]
He go "Oh!
You've got to go!
Jack, hit the road!
For don't you know
(Oh oh oh you owe Mr. O?)
I'm gonna make it plain
(Make it plain)
You're gonna take that train..."
(You’re gonna take that, take that train)

[Bridge 1]
The family, the reverend, the foreign leader
Owe Mr. O
The senator, the mannequin, and the maiden meter
Owe Mr. O
Yeah, the manager, the old lady down the road
And everybody that you know
Oh, they owe
Mr. O

[Verse 2]
Well, I wonder who that is?
(Open up!)
He’s as mad as a hat is!
He's a fool with a plan like a card house
(likes to rule)
Pulling cards out
Sell him a clue so he’ll know what to do
Or else you're gonna get the screw
(Ooh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Mr. O doesn't need your savings
And Mr. O doesn't like your babies
Been waiting for an opportunity
To put everybody on the street

[Chorus]
So go whoa!
You’ve got to go
You're bought and sold
And don't ya know
(Oh oh oh you owe Mr. O oh)
No more society
(No more society)
Or notoriety
(Or notoriety)

[Bridge 2]
Oh, the butler and the baker and the new age tailor
Owe Mr. O
The pioneer, the coroner, the dancing sailor
Owe Mr. O
Yeah, the vagabond, the president, the pope
And everybody that you know
Yeah, they owe
Mr. O

[Verse 3]
Mr. O, where are you going?
It seems your ship is overflowing
With all that you own, still you're living alone
I think it's time you found yourself a home

[spoken]
Mr. O doesn't want your love. He wants your

[Outro]
