STAR: | |
Norman's office got on my nerves to-day. | |
WIFE: | |
What do you mean? You are Norman! | |
STAR: | |
(Shouts) I am a star! | |
WIFE: | |
You're not a star Norman. You're just a plain ordinary little bloke and even if you walked down the street in a silver suit people still wouldn't recognise you. You're dull, ordinary and uninteresting! You're a drag! | |
STAR: | |
I hate this house and I hate you, but more than anything else I hate those ducks! | |
WIFE: | |
Don't you touch those ducks Norman! They were a present from my mother. Look, Norman, I've had enough of you and your ridiculous fantasies. First of all you wanted to be a painter, then you wanted to be an astronaut, then a footballer and now you're playing at being a rock singer. If you touch those ducks I'm leaving! | |
My baby's got the most deplorable taste, | |
But her biggest mistake | |
Is hanging over the fireplace. | |
She's got ducks, ducks on the wall, | |
Ducks, ducks, hanging on the wall. | |
My lady's got a sort of strange fascination, | |
An obsessive fixation | |
For cheap decorations | |
She's got ducks, ducks on the wall. | |
Ducks, ducks, hanging on the wall. | |
Wo-wo-wo I love her so but if she doesn't move the ducks, | |
I think my mind is gonna go. | |
Ducks ducks on the wall. | |
Ducks ducks, hanging on the wall. | |
I leave the office and I want to relax. | |
Don't want to stare at a wall | |
And look at a duck that can't quack. | |
I love you baby but I can't fall | |
For those ducks on the wall. | |
I start to snuggle up and squeeze her so tight. | |
Then out of the corner of my eye | |
I see those ducks in flight. | |
I love you baby but I can't ball | |
When I see those ducks on the wall. | |
Wo-wo-wo I can sit through your gossip and your soap opera shows, | |
But those ducks have got to go. | |
I love you baby but I can't ball | |
When I see those ducks on the wall. | |
And when I went to a cocktail party | |
With the bores next door, | |
What was the first thing that I saw? | |
Ducks, ducks on the wall. | |
Ducks, ducks hanging on the wall. | |
My baby's got the most deplorable taste, | |
But her biggest mistake | |
Is hanging over the fireplace. | |
She's got ducks, ducks on the wall, | |
Ducks, ducks hanging on the wall. | |
I'll sit and look at all the soap operas with her | |
I'll play all the panel games and watch all the quiz shows, | |
But those ducks they've got to go, | |
Those ducks are getting up my nose. | |
If those ducks can fly, well so can I. | |
And if those ducks have got to stay | |
Then I'm going to fly away. | |
I love you baby but I can't ball | |
When I see those ducks on the wall. | |
Ducks, ducks, ducks on the wall. | |
Ducks, ducks, ducks on the wall. | |
Oh those ducks on the wall are beginning to move | |
They're talking to me | |
I've got to get away from those ducks. |
