Elegance Unveiled: Real Gentlemen's Rhythm
Lyrics
REAL GENTLEMEN
Introduction to the concept of "Real Gentlemen."
Some lose their nerves in a traffic jam
Some people become agitated in a traffic jam, revealing their lack of composure.
And some can't stay cool while others can
Contrast between those who remain calm and those who struggle to stay composed.
Some lose their temper cos they're white and you're not
Highlighting racial tension as a source of anger for some individuals.
To some getting angry is all they've got
Some people resort to anger as their only coping mechanism.
Some feel good scaling you down
Certain individuals feel satisfaction in belittling others.
Some even elect an orange clown
Reference to political figures, possibly criticizing their behavior.
Real Gentlemen got taste
Real Gentlemen are characterized by having refined preferences.
Real Gentlemen got style
Emphasis on the stylish nature of Real Gentlemen.
Real Gentlemen use a good melody
Real Gentlemen appreciate good melodies.
And will move you once in a while
Real Gentlemen can evoke emotions through music occasionally.
Some burn crosses late at night looking like ghosts
Reference to racial hatred and the symbolism of burning crosses.
Grown men in bed sheets, dressed to boast
Critique of individuals who boast about their prejudiced beliefs.
Some are wielding knives to have a virgin in their arms
Highlighting extreme actions some take to control others.
Style seems to be out of style
Questioning the relevance of style in the face of disturbing actions.
Should we be alarmed?
Raising concern about alarming trends in society.
It's not cool to be “hyperphonic”
Disapproval of being overly technical or obsessed with technology.
I recommend a swinging tune, and a gin and tonic
Suggestion for a remedy: enjoying music and a classic drink.
Real Gentlemen got taste
Reiteration of the refined taste of Real Gentlemen.
Real Gentlemen got style
Emphasizing the stylish demeanor of Real Gentlemen.
Real Gentlemen use a good melody
Reaffirmation of the appreciation for good melodies.
And will move you once in a while
Real Gentlemen can evoke emotions through music occasionally.
Real Gentlemen stay cool
Real Gentlemen remain composed and unflustered.
Real Gentlemen don't shout
Real Gentlemen avoid loud and aggressive behavior.
Real Gentlemen have no mess on their heads
Real Gentlemen maintain a neat and orderly appearance.
And they never, never, never, ever act out
Stressing the importance of controlled and dignified behavior.
