They said our love would never work
They said that when I met you
Well they were right it's over now
But still I won't forget you
When the next door neighbor's yelling
When all day I keep on smelling old men's macs
or when my ears are blocked with wax
When conversation turns to taxidermy
I will think of you
When I see a child dismember insects
or when I remember how I feel
the day after an Indian meal
or when I see a jellied eel
My darling I will think of you
Or when my best friend doesn't like
Beryl cook or David Hockney
or when I think of **** Van Dyke
trying to do a cockney accent
When on TV there's only Tyra
When above my head the flies are jumbo jets
When all my towels are dripping wet
or when my pink blancmange won't set
My darling I will think of you
When my aunt says 'Time for shut-eye!'
When I wash up dinner but I get no thanks
Whenever I smell septic tanks
Whenever I see dirty skanks
My darling I will think of you
