What line immediately precedes the final lyric "...and so is Lola" in the classic 1970 Kinks hit?
Answer I'm glad I'm a man
The full line is "But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man, and so is Lola," completing one of the great reveals in pop music history. As explained by Ray Davies: "It was a real experience in a club. I was asked to dance by somebody who was a fabulous looking woman. I said 'no thank you.' And she went in a cab with my manager straight afterwards. It's based on a personal experience. But not every word."
