Snug in the latest style
Your cool is now on trial
I think you care too much
His laidback's more than tough

I know you want to boast and brag in envy
But even you know it's a shadow play
He's keeping time now for a half a century
Charlie Watts is on the throne x2

You hear him on the dial
And then you nod and smile
Decked out in nonchalance
He'll knock you down a notch

He's not the only one
Some others are still fun
But when the lists are made
Let all respect be paid

I know you want to boast and brag in envy
But even you know it's a shadow play
He's keeping time now for a half a century
Charlie Watts is on the throne x2
