lyrics

Stalin killed a lot of men
Some later on, some way back when
Some for good and some for ill
But he was always a handsome man

Magnotta cut his date to bits
Hid his head, but ate his fingertips
Left him round town for the kids to find
But he was always a handsome man

Oh, these handsome men
What do we expect from them
A wink a smile or a gentle touch?

Lord, we're asking for too much
Oh, these Handsome Men
What do we expect from them?
Somebody we can trust?
Lord, you're asking for too much

The year was 1865
Abe Lincoln was still alive
Wilkes-Booth said 'not for long'
But he was always a handsome man

Johnny Depp he beat his wife.
Beat her within an inch of life.
Called her a liar when she testified,
But he was always a handsome man.

Oh, these handsome men
what do we expect from them
a wink a smile or a gentle touch?
Lord, we're asking for too much

Oh, these Handsome Men
What do we expect from them?
Somebody we can trust?
Lord, you're asking for too much

Matthew McConnaughey he got a gun
Killed an elephant for fun
Didn't eat it, or wear its bones
But he was always a Handsome Man

Justin Trudeau let the oil exchange
Build a pipeline 'cross the mountain range
He still laments about climate change
But he was always a Handsome Man

Oh, these handsome men
What do we expect from them
A wink, a smile, or a gentle touch?
Lord, we're asking for too much
Oh these Handsome Men
What do we expect from them?
Somebody we can trust?
Lord, you're asking for too much

It's sad but true, You're evil
Your good looks & charm
Won't do me no harm, I know.
You think I can't tell, you're evil

I know what's behind
Your smoldering eyes
It's the devil

Oh these handsome men
What do we expect from them
A wink a smile or a gentle touch?
Lord, we're asking for too much
Ohh these Handsome Men
What do we expect from them?
Somebody we can trust?
Lord, you're asking for too much

You used to always throw a fit
I used to let you get away with it
Lord knows, it could be worse
You were always a Handsome Man

You know I'm a sucker for a man with class
Lord, I know you figure that out fast
But there are some things I cannot forgive
Even though you're a Handsome Man
And you KNOW you're a Handsome Man
Yeah you KNOW you're a Handsome Man
We all know you're a handsome man
