The Kinks - She`s Bought A Hat Like Princess Marina (Mono Ver.)

She's bought a hat
like Princess Marina's
To wear at all her social affairs
She wears it when
she's cleaning the windows
She wears it when she's
scrubbing the stairs
But you will never see her
at Ascot
She can't afford
the time or the fare
But she's bought a hat
like Princess Marina's
So she don't care
He's bought a hat
like Anthony Eden's
Because it makes him
feel like a Lord
But he can't afford
a Rolls or a Bentley
He has to buy a secondhand Ford
He tries to feed
his wife and his family
And buy them clothes and shoes
they can wear
But he's bought a hat
like Anthony Eden's
So he don't care
Buddy can you spare me a dime
My wife is getting hungry
And the kids are crying
This poverty is hurting my pride
Buddy can you spare me,
buddy can you spare me a dime
She's bought a hat
like Princess Marina's
And her neighbors think it
suits her a treat
But she hasn't any food
in the larder
Nor has anybody else
in the street
But to look at her you'd think
she was wealthy
'Cos she smiles just
like a real millionaire
'Cos she's bought a hat
like Princess Marina's
So she don't care,
she don't care,
she don't care,
She don't care
She's bought a hat
like Princess Marina's
To wear at all her social affairs
She wears it when
she's cleaning the windows
She wears it when she's
scrubbing the stairs
But you will never see her
at Ascot
She can't afford
the time or the fare
But she's bought a hat
like Princess Marina's
So she don't care
He's bought a hat
like Anthony Eden's
Because it makes him
feel like a Lord
But he can't afford
a Rolls or a Bentley
He has to buy a secondhand Ford
He tries to feed
his wife and his family
And buy them clothes and shoes
they can wear
But he's bought a hat
like Anthony Eden's
So he don't care
Buddy can you spare me a dime
My wife is getting hungry
And the kids are crying
This poverty is hurting my pride
Buddy can you spare me,
buddy can you spare me a dime
She's bought a hat
like Princess Marina's
And her neighbors think it

But to look at her you'd think

'Cos she smiles just
like a real millionaire
'Cos she's bought a hat
like Princess Marina's
So she don't care,
she don't care,
she don't care,
She don't care
