he remains defiant to the cause
though he never quite knew what it was
he's working hard for the man upstairs
seen him once, he's losing his hair

mr. important, he's better than you
index and quotient, he knows what to do.
socially impotent, he drinks with the lads,
mr. important, in bachelor pads

his parents would be very proud
if only he stood out from the crowd
and made a name that was his own
no corporation, just his alone

mr. important...etc

but mum and dad, they were so sad
when he lost the job, the bachelor pad.
and he just went back home to stay
now mum and dad want him away
